Kindhearted 7-month-old Kola is clearly in love with love! Rescued by Good Samaritans from an abusive situation on an out-of-state ranch and transported here, the 35-pound tan puppy was understandably shy, but once she warmed up to her fosters, she bloomed. Blessed with the cutest smile and sweetest personality, she loves cuddling and snuggling with them on the couch, resting her head on them, rolling over belly rubs, then lying near them on the floor while they work and stretching her neck back and up for some scratches and pets. Content to chill out and nap with her doggy foster brother on their beds in the living room, she’s even happier playing with their toys, and happier still playing outside. Kola loves and needs to take regular walks, prancing proudly on her walks and then “surfing” in the snow. Riding calmly now in the car, she considers a glow-in-the-dark chuck-it ball and a red stuffed bone toy her favorite toys, loves her Benebones, Kong monkey and all treats, accepting them gently. Highly intelligent and eager to please, she’s motivated by praise, toys and treats, knows “sit,” “down” and “off,” and is swiftly learning more commands. Crate trained, at work on her house-training and puppy manners, kiss-able Kola now hopes to find an especially loving home, perhaps with a backyard and another playful pup, that will perfect her manners, complete her training, including her commands, and keep her fulfilled, mentally and physically, fur-ever.

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 $425.  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.
