In the shelter’s words

Animal Rescue of the Rockies believes every pet should find a wonderful and caring home. To ensure Left Eye finds the best possible home, we ask you fill out our adoption application so we can learn more about you and your household. We review each application in the order submitted and will contact you within 72 hours (please check your spam folder for our emails). Left Eye | 8-Year-Old Collie/Shepherd Mix | Sweet, Gentle Companion Left Eye is an 8-year-old Collie/Shepherd mix weighing about 29 pounds, with a beautiful black-and-white coat and a calm, gentle personality. She loves a peaceful lifestyle, cozy naps, and having her person nearby. She’s house trained and easygoing at home, happy to curl up in her bed most of the day. She enjoys short walks around the block but prefers heading home to her favorite resting spot rather than going on long adventures. Left Eye seems to do reasonably well around other dogs initially, but over time, she becomes increasingly submissive and timid. She may be happiest as the only pet, where she can relax and enjoy all the love and attention. She has shown a tendency to chase cats, so a cat-free home is recommended. She can be shy when meeting new people, especially men, and will need a patient person who gives her time to feel comfortable and build trust. She is definitely more at ease with women so a single female adopter is the ideal, although the most important thing is finding someone who understands her gentle, sensitive nature. Once she feels safe, she enjoys affection, belly rubs, and quiet time with her person. She also loves soft squeaky toys and often carries them around the house and takes them to bed. Left Eye experiences separation anxiety and may howl when left alone, so she needs a house rather than an apartment. She would do best with someone who is home most of the time and can provide a calm, predictable environment. Left Eye has ongoing medical needs following the removal of cancerous tumors and currently takes chemotherapy medication, which she will need for at least a year. Regular veterinary checkups are important to monitor her progress. ARR will cover her chemotherapy medications for six months following adoption and sponsor her adoption fee. Left Eye is looking for a patient, understanding adopter who can offer a quiet home, plenty of companionship, and time to help her build confidence. A woman in a single-person household, with Left Eye as her only pet, may be her ideal match. In return, this sweet girl will offer gentle companionship and lots of love once she knows she's safe. If you and the dog are a good match then we'll connect you with our dog's 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 scheduled. 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 complete 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 $125. Our adoption fee covers the following: Spay/neuter Microchip DAPP vaccinations as age-appropriate for the dog. Rabies vaccinations as age-appropriate for the dog. Adopters shall be responsible for all vaccinations after adoption. Please fill out an adoption application by clicking here . Please give us 72 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.
