Adopt a Dog!

Are you ready to bring a new family member into your home? Find a friend for life now! Search shelter dogs in Colorado and the Rocky Mountain region.

Be sure to call each shelter or foster care provider to confirm details about each dog. Due to more families being at home in the pandemic, dogs have been going fast! (Yay!!)

Do You Have a Question About Adopt-a-Dog Search Options or Resources?

High Country Dog does not work directly with shelters, though we encourage you to Contact Us if you have any questions about searching for a dog online in general OR if you would like help with a custom search! We would be happy to help you find other rescue groups that are not all listed here.

If you are looking for a purebred puppy, you can Google your breed online. The American Kennel Club provides an excellent breeder’s directory on its web site.

Though it’s true that some shelter or rescue dogs may have behavioral issues that their foster providers are working to help them overcome, some wonderful young dogs in breed rescue groups are there for benign reasons, such as lack of time for potty-training or the illness or disability of the care provider.  A few rescue dogs had to be surrendered due to the care needs of the dog. Bless all of those special people who have given a senior or disabled dog a home!!!

Also, please contact us if you have a rescue with a special story that we can share with our dog community!
