Notes:
3-5-10: My name is “Grayson” and I was so lucky to be rescued by my foster mom! She has taken such good care of me, and I am finally comfortable and safe. I am neutered, and about 7-8 years of age. All my shots are current, I am heartworm negative, and I am just looking for love now – somebody who will love me every day and spend time with me. My eyes need drops every day for a touch of ‘dry eye’, but I am a healthy boy, and ready for my second chance to be your forever love.

My name is Duffy, or Duffy Doodle oooh is what my foster mom calls me. I am about 5 years of age, housetrained, and extremely affectionate. I just got home from the vet hospital today from getting my heartworm disease treatment. I didn’t have a very good life before coming into rescue, but my foster mom tells me I will be a shining star now and some lucky family will love me for the rest of my life! 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. I will have my clean bill of health from the doctor very soon so call Rockin’ Paw about me today! *********************************************************************

Bailey

Bailey is a small, 5.5 year old, neutered male Cockapoo who was surrendered by his owner due to her health challenges. This cutie pie is a little intimidated by new dogs, especially bigger dogs, but once he gets to know the dog he is fine and would love to have a buddy. Bailey would also love to have school age children to play with in his new home. 

Bailey is house trained, but not crate trained. He may have a little separation anxiety since his owner reported that he sometimes marked the baseboards (nothing else, just the baseboards) in some rooms when he was left alone. This behavior can be eliminated through training. 

This little boy also loves to rip up his blanket or bedding, so we would recommend that he have an old blanket to call his own that he can tear to his heart’s content. Of course, Bailey would love squeaky toys, balls and chew toys as well! No little Cockapoo’s life would be complete without lots of toys to carry around and call his own. 

Bailey would love a home with a fenced yard and doggie door so he can come and go as he pleases. A privacy fence would be best so he isn’t tempted to bark at the passers-by. He would be a very happy dog if he could have another playful dog and/or children aged 7 years and older to play with every day. 

Bailey is up to date on all his vaccinations and ready for his new forever home!  Just fill out this online application form.

Eli

Eli is just about two years old and was surrendered by his family because of allergies.  Here’s what his foster mom has to say about him:

Eli is like a 1940’s Bogart lover.  He swoons against your leg when  you sit down and walks between your ankles to state his territory. He sits, comes when called and uses the pet door to do his necessaries in the back yard.  He has put weight on during his first two years our of sheer loneliness.  But, surrounded by friends,  he doesn’t seem to need food as much and eats very little.  He’s just too busy being happy.  He would like to sleep with you but accepts the crate if you ask. When I say he is sweet, it is an understatement,   He is so eager to please, it’[s almostembarrassing!  He LOVES having his own person and he will never bore you if you are a stay-at-home owner. You will have a loving companion that will make you feel like royalty.

Eli is up to date on his vaccinations and is micro-chipped.  This litte guy will find a home quickly, so if you are interested in meeting him, please complete an online adoption application.

Flag

Flag has an adoption application pending!!

Flag is a nine year old Cocker Spaniel that recently lost his owner and is looking for a new home.  He is a black and white male with a full tail and came into rescue with his best pal, Maddie.  He would like to be adopted with Maddie, but it is not necessary.

Flag is neutered and is up to date on his vaccinations which will be due in June 2010 except for rabies which will not be due until June of 2011.  Flag has issues with some other males and would prefer all of your attention if possible!  He seems to do fine with other females.  He is house trained and is in good health.

Flag’s former owner had her own home-based business and was at home with him a lot, so he is used to having someone around.  Currently he spends 5-6 hours unsupervised and is fine.  The best home situation for him would be with owners that either work part-time, have a home-based business, or are retired.  He would really like a nice fenced yard so that he can get out and investigate.  We recommend a home without young children since he’s never lived in that environment.  He has done fine with children at adoption events.

If you are interested in meeting Flag, please complete one of our online adoption applications.

Max

Hi!  My name is Max and I’m three years old.  I just got into town!  My owner in Wyoming decided he didn’t want me and my sister anymore, so he took us to the shelter there.  Someone adopted my sister, but left me behind.  I was pretty sad.  The nice lady at the shelter called the folks at RMCR and asked if I could come to Denver and find a forever home, so here I am.

I have copper colored fur and the groomer had to shave everything but my ears because I had lots of mats.  I really love to be petted and sit really close to you.  I have beautiful eyes and really white teeth that sparkle when I smile up at you!  I would really like to come live with you and be yours forever!

I’m supposed to tell you that I have all my vaccinations and that I’m neutered and microchipped.  No accidents in the house so far.  I’m not really cracked up about this crate thing though - I spent a long time in a kennel in the shelter, so I’d really like to be free to stay near you!  I’m good with kids that are over the age of thirteen!

If you want to meet me, please fill out one of these adoption application things.  I’ll be waiting.

Prince

Hi! Prince here. I just wanted to say that my foster Mom is the best, but I have been waiting and wishing for a family that wants an only dog (my foster Mom has two already). You see, I don’t know how to play with other dogs or even people. I know how to throw my own ball and fetch and play tug of war with a round rope. But, you know, I heard that sometimes dogs have humans that play with them. Even small humans. I have good manners and never do outside chores in the house. I know how to use a doggy door so I can sit on the back porch and watch other humans go by with their dog. Every time my human sits down, I am right there by her lap if she needs something and I go to my crate at night and curl up with the door open. Couldn’t we meet at McDonalds and talk about it?

Prince is two years old,  up to date on all of his vaccinations, is neutered and microchipped. If you are interested in meeting him, please complete an online adoption application.

Barcelona

Barcelona has an adoption application pending!!

Barcelona (we call him Bart for short) is a lively Cocker mix –we think he might have a little Australian Cattle Dog in him based on his coloring and coat texture. 

His story is one of the reasons we do rescue:  he was seen being thrown from a moving car in Missouri!  Despite that, he seems to be in great health and not traumatized at all.  He is very affectionate, sweet and friendly.  Bart knows about chasing balls, comes when called, and knows sit, down, and cookie.  This little cutie is fully house-trained and gets along well with the other dogs, rides great in the car and only tugs a little on a leash–we’re working on that.  Bart did great with children at a recent adoption event.  This three year old little boy has been neutered and has all his shots.  We’re not sure how he is around cats, so a cat-free home would be a good suggestion.  

If you are interested in meeting Bart, please complete an online adoption application.

Ace

Ace has an adoption application pending!!

Ace is the cutest four month old Cocker puppy you’ve ever seen. He’s chocolate brown with a tiny bit of white on his chest. His foster dad tells us that he’s a great dog. He knows his name, sits up, and actually comes when his name is called. They are currently working to reinforce his potty training skills. He loves playing ball. He also sleeps all night and then loves to wake you up in the morning with lots of puppy kisses!

Ace is neutered and up to date with his vaccinations. He just needs someone to patiently get him through his “puppy-ness” and continue his house training skills using positive reinforcement and lots of praise when he gets it right.

If you are interested in this handsome little lad, please complete one of our online adoption applications.  Hurry – he’s too cute to miss!

Cooper

Cooper has an adoption application pending!

Cooper is coming into rescue because his owner is facing surgery and will have a lengthy rehab period. She feels that a new home will be better for him than shuffling him around during that time frame. Here’s what she has to say about this seven year old tri-colored male:

He loves, loves, loves to fetch and chase balls. He is happiest when he is at the park or the dog park playing. Cooper has never lived with small children but when we encounter them, he just sits and lets them do whatever to him. He has been known to sit at a childs table with little girls and have a tea party. He has no objection to wearing the hats they put on him so I am sure he would be great with kids. He loves women but is not crazy about men in caps or men with beards. He will eventually warm up to them but it may take awhile.

Cooper does not shed. I love that about him. He has very soft, curly fur and he likes to be brushed. He sleeps on his own bed in my room and has been known to run in his dreams. Pretty funny to watch. He is not crate trained. He has a pretty good vocabulary and obeys very well.

If I could pick the perfect home for Cooper, it would be a home where the new parents own and not rent. Moving alot seems disruptive to him. I would love for him to have a yard and a doggie door. He would be great with a single woman or a family with kids and/or another dog. As long as he is walked and exercised, he is a great dog. If he is not exercised, he will let you know that he is bored and may potty in the house. I would like to know that wherever he ends up, his new family will know that there will be an adjustment period and given a little time, Cooper will make the family so happy and he will be a great dog and a loyal friend.

If you are interested in meeting Cooper, please complete one of our online adoption applications.
