Lucky is a wonderful Cavalier King Charles Spaniel/Cocker Spaniel mix that came to us from an owner surrender situation. The husband was a work-at-home dad and spent a great deal of time with the dogs. He passed away suddenly and unexpectedly and now the wife doesn’t have the same luxury of staying home with the dogs. In order for them to get the attention that they were used to, she has asked us to help find a new home.
Lucky is a very loving and lively little guy. At a recent adoption event, the tried to protect us all from the larger dogs! He gives kisses freely and is a joy to be around. He is house trained, does well on a leash and is up to date on vaccinations. He is also micro chipped. He came into rescue with a female partner named Lucy, but does not seem dependent on her. He does well around kids of all ages and smaller dogs. We’re not sure about cats.
If you are interested in meeting Lucky, please complete an online adoption application.

Rod and Harley Henry
Normally, our Happy Tales are about rescued dogs that find new forever homes, however we had to make an exception when it came to Harley Henry. Harley’s owner, Rod, was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis several years ago and is now in a wheel chair. Rod was facing a move into an assisted living situation that would not allow dogs, so he contacted RMCR to help place Harley into a new home. Harley never really assimilated into life at his foster mom’s home. He moped around and looked out the window, hoping that Rod would show up to get him. On weekends when he went to adoption events, he stuck close to the male volunteers, following them wherever they went and sitting in their laps. Then Rod called – he’d found an assisted living complex that allowed dogs and asked if he could take Harley back! As you can see, the reunion was touching. Harley knew within three miles of home that he was on his way back and was standing in the window looking for his house. All of us at RMCR fell in love with Harley and we are so pleased that he could be reunited with Rod. Best wishes for a long and happy life, gentlemen!

This is Morgan, he is a happy puppy – bouncy and curious. Once or twice a day, he THROWS himself on your lap and holds really still. You’re supposed to know that he is allowing you time to pet him before he goes off to his next adventure – very generous of him and his crowded schedule. When he sleeps, he SLEEPS; when he plays, he PLAYS; when he sleeps, he SLEEPS! When he chews his toys, he’s very dedicated, so get tough toys! He loves to chase flying insects and most of the time, he catches them. When he finishes an activity, he flops down to contemplate what’s next.
Morgan is a very energetic puppy. Although he’s not been around children, perhaps school-age kids could match his energy. We wouldn’t recommend a home with cats. He is very self-confident, so he would love to learn fancy tricks, If you want a friend and companion, look no farther!
Morgan is neutered, up-to-date on his vaccinations, and is micro-chipped.
If you are interested in Morgan, please complete an online adoption application.

Marley is a very affectionate and lively little one and a half year old boy. He loves chasing balls and squirrels and snuggling on laps. He knows sit, off, move, and come–and of course, cookie! He plays very well with the other dogs, shows no resource guarding behavior, is completely house trained and crate trained, and has gotten along very well with the adults and children who have petted him at rescue events. Like many dogs, he loves to shred tissues, so we keep the box off the floor! He has all his vaccinations, is neutered and microchipped, and would love to shower you with puppy kisses in his forever home.
If you are interested in Marley, please complete an online adoption application.

Barb and Mike with Katie and Heidi
Heidi came to us from Utah where this youngster was found as a matted messy stray. Her ears were so painfully infected that she didn’t want us to touch her head when we groomed her the first time. Heidi’s little head has a permanent tilt to it perhaps because of chronic ear infections; however, the infections are cleared up now and she is as healthy as they come. Mike and Barb fell in love with her pictures on our website and could hardly wait to add to her their family. Heidi adopted this wonderful couple and their dog, Katie, so she will have a fur-ever family of her own to love and kiss for many years to come.

“Bellisimo” or “Bella” is my name! I am only 6 months old and have not had anyone want to take care of me yet! I was shifted from home to home as a small puppy and people just did not have any time for me. My foster mom wants to find someone who will take me to doggie obedience school, take me for walks on leash, and maybe even go play at a dog park! She says I’m beautiful and have lots of potential! I have been learning my house manners and doing very well. All of my shots are up-to-date and I’ve been dewormed too! I am getting spayed on April 13th, so I am ready and rearing to find my new home! ***********************************************************

Update: Molly has an adoption application pending.
These three darlings were born in January and are all looking for new homes. There are two boys and one girl. We are calling them Huey, Louie and Molly.
The little girl suffered trauma to one of her eyes and is currently recovering in a foster home with several medications. We are seriously hoping that the medicines and some TLC will allow the eye to heal. While she was under anesthesia for the repair work on her eye, we took the opportunity to have her spayed. She has also had the vaccinations recommended for a puppy her age and has also been dewormed.
Neither boy has been altered yet. Please see our policy for adopting puppies that are too young to be neutered on our Adoption Information page. They boys have received their vaccinations and have been dewormed.
Due to their age, they are not yet house trained, however our foster parents will begin teaching them. Successful house training will require that the adopter continues the training with consistency, taking them out often and giving lots of praise when the job is done.
If you are interested in meeting one (or more) of these little ones, please complete an online adoption application. Very few people can resist an adorable Cocker Spaniel puppy, so these guys will be very popular. Don’t wait!

Sugar is around 5-6 months old and is a mix of Spaniel and some unknown breed. She is approximately 20-25 pounds.
Sugar was given to some people from out of state that decided they didn’t want her after all. She had been living outside under a mobile home when she was taken into rescue. She’s very sweet and gets along with people and other dogs. She’s a bit shy due to all of the fast changes in her short little life.
Sugar is up to date on her vaccinations and has been treated for parasites. She will need to be spayed and micro-chipped before going to a new forever home. She is currently working on her house training skills. This little girl is going to be a great companion for some lucky adopter!
If you are interested in meeting Sugar, please complete an online adoption application.

Chelsea with Larry and Mary
Travi, a former puppy mill dog was painfully shy and fearful when she arrived in Denver about a month ago. At her first Petco adoption event, this beauty spent the majority of the as far away from people as possible and faced the opposite direction so she wouldn’t have to look at anyone. Three weeks later she was at another Petco adoption event when she found Mary who cuddled her on her lap for quite some time. (Little did we know that Mary and Larry were there to inspect our volunteers to see what kind of a rescue we ran! We passed their test!!) Mary decided she would foster-to-adopt this shy girl. The first week was challenging with Travi being very fearful of the doors and not wanting her front feet to be touched, but she won Mary’s heart when she joined her in bed one night. Larry decided Travi’s new name should be Chelsea after the English soccer team; he even bought her a blue soccer jersey to wear when he takes her to the nearby soccer park! Chelsea is slowly becoming comfortable around her new parents who are doting on her just as she deserves. When we left their home, they were discussing sweaters and booties for Chelsea to wear when it snows! We think Chelsea picked a great fur-ever home.

I have one blue eye and one brown eye, which makes me special too! I get along great with the other foster dogs at my house, and I would love a home of my very own. I am a very quick learner and will work hard to earn your praise.
