Donate Heart

Aptly named for her wintry white coat, 3-year-old Milky is making the most of her second chance at life. Rescued from a hoarding situation, this 24-pound beauty has been gradually growing more confident in the reassuring calmness of her foster home. Sweet and submissive, she loves snuggling and cuddling with her foster mom, resting her head on her and rolling over for belly rubs. She also loves going for two long walks a day, walking well to “heel,” engaging with dogs of all sizes provided they’re calm, playing a few rounds of fetch and nibbling and chomping on toys now and then. Eager to please and to learn, Milky, who’s very sensitive to training and is highly food motivated, currently knows “sit,” “down,” “no” and “stay,” and is adept at catching treats in mid-air! Not to mention a quirky “groan” that she uses in the morning to indicate she’s excited and impatient for a walk. Crate trained and almost fully house-trained, Milky will flourish in a calm environment without children, and patient adopters to lovingly bolster her confidence, complete her training, including her commands, and ensure that her second life is her best life ever. See additional photos and videos of Milky here.

Animal Rescue of the Rockies believes every pet should find a wonderful and caring home. To ensure each pet finds the best possible home, we ask that you fill out our adoption application so we can learn more about you and your household. We review each application received in the order they're submitted and will contact you within 48 hours (please check your spam folder for our emails). If your home sounds like a good match for you and the pet, we will connect you with our dogs' foster parents to chat more in-depth. If both you and the foster agree that the dog is a good fit then a "meet and greet" is set up. We require applicants' dogs to meet ours to ensure they get along. We'll ask you to read and sign our adoption agreement and pay the adoption fee to finalize the adoption when it comes time. Our adoption fees help cover the costs of saving more lives!  A home visit will be scheduled within one week of your new pet going home with you. 

The adoption fee for this pet is $375. Our adoption fee covers the following:

Spay/neuter

Microchip

DAPP vaccinations as age-appropriate for the dog. Adopters shall be responsible for all DAPP boosters after adoption.

Rabies vaccinations as age-appropriate for the dog. Adopters shall be responsible for any rabies vaccinations after adoption.

Please fill out an adoption application by clicking  here . Please give us 48 hours to review your application and respond to you. (Remember to check your spam folder for our emails!) We want our pets to go to a lifelong new home, so thank you for your patience during the adoption process!

Please email  dogs@arrcolorado.org  for more information, as we can't accept calls at this time.


PLEASE NOTE:  The breed listed is the information we've received from the shelter.  Shelters usually guess at the breed, so there is no guarantee, as we don't DNA test our foster pets.  Here is some interesting info on breed identification:  https://arrcolorado.org/category/puppy-dog-tips/

Our adoption process is:

1. Fill out our Adoption Application online.  We'll contact you within 48 hours to answer any questions you may have about the pet.

2. If the pet looks like a great match, we'll schedule a meet and greet and ask you to fill out our online Adoption Agreement if you'd like to proceed with adopting.  Once you've completed the Adoption Agreement and pay the pet's Adoption Fee, you can arrange to pick up your new furry family member!
