Meet Sally, our most recent medical case

There is so much cruelty and hurt in the world today on so many different levels. One thing to remember though is, for every person doing harm there is an army of people doing good. Each day we see the worst in people. We see their ugliness. We see their evilness. What we also see is their compassion. We see their kindness. We see their desire to change the world they live in. Click here to learn about our very own Sally, the sweet and courageous pit bull, and the army of people behind her doing good!

Dogs of the week!

5-6 yo, female, Am Staff X. Dog/kid friendly. Longmont. $250.
Lolly is a lovely, 5-6 year old, female, American Staffordshire mix. She's super kid friendly, crate trained, and does well with other dogs with a proper intro. She's currently being treated for heartworms. Her adoption fee is $250.
Betty, 3 year old, female, American Bully, Windsor, $350.
Betty is a 3 year old, female, American Bully mix. This spunky girl is so sweet with adults and kiddos and enjoys playing with other dogs from time to time. Betty would enjoy being the only dog in the home, although she may do well in a home with a large, easy going, male dog. She's located in Windsor. Her adoption fee is $350.
Athena, 4 year old, female, Great Dane, Windsor, $350, male dog-friendly
Athena is a beautiful, black, beauty looking for a patient forever home. She was recently surrendered by her family and she’s pretty confused. She’s a bit shy at first, but warms up beautifully, and does well with other dogs after a proper introduction.
Penny, 4 year old, female, Mixed Breed, Bennett, $350, dog-friendly, kid-friendly
Penny sure does have something to smile about! This sweet girl was sprung from doggie jail almost a year ago by another rescue in Texas. There she got spayed and grew her beautiful coat back in from a bad case of Demodex and then got her ticket to Colorado when we agreed to bring her into BBCR for a second chance at a forever home! Penny is medium sized, timid and sweet, dog and kid friendly, and well mannered in a home. Penny is missing most of her front teeth and her canines have been cut or worn down - we aren’t sure. She very likely could have been a bait dog, but it’s hard to tell what’s a scar and what’s from her Demodex. If you’d like to show Penny all Colorado has to offer, please apply!
Yoga, 4-5 year old, female, American Bulldog mix, Windsor, $350, dog-friendly, kid-friendly
Yoga is a very sweet, compact, American Bulldog mix. She's great with other dogs, loves to play, and is good with adults and kiddos.
Gampur, 2 year old, female, Armenian Gampr, Windsor, $400
Gampur has really opened up during her time with BBCR and has become such a fun loving, happy, playful, girl. Gampur is best suited in a home with guardian breed experience, She would love a playful, male dog to be her buddy and will require a 6' privacy fence. She will be a loyal companion for a lucky family!
Johnny Depp, 2-3 year old, male, American Staffordshire mix, Cheyenne, WY, $250, female dog-friendly
Johnny Depp is such a funny boy. He is very attentive on a leash and responds to the slightest correction. Johnny is medium sized and would do well in a home with a young, easy going, playful, female dog.
Baby, 2-3 year old, female, Shepherd mix, dog friendly but best as only dog, Windsor, $350.
Sweet, smiling, Baby! This beautiful girl plays well with other dogs but she can get protective of her humans inside the home. Due to this, she’s best served as an only dog or in a home equipped to handle resource guarding. She has also completed a Good Dog Basics training program so she comes with some basic training skills!
