HAPPY UPDATE: SAFE!!!
1 PUP NEEDS RESCUE BY 2/18!! ♥️
There is 1, medium sized pup at the Rocky Ford Shelter who needs a PACFA approved rescue to tag before 2/18!!! Hwy 50 is set up to transport this guy to his new rescue, we typically transport up to CO Springs and Denver, but are able to transport elsewhere in CO for a committed rescue!
Please let me know if you’re seriously interested in fostering and we can help find a rescue for you, rescues are in desperate need of fosters which is typically what prevents them from tagging immediately. And please share if you can’t foster, everything helps!!!
Thank you all!!! ❤️🐾

Hi again rescues! There is only one dog so far this week in the Rocky Ford Shelter. His time is up Sunday 2/18, please let us know if your rescue can help!
Meet Pete (3-5 year old male, 35lbs) 🐾
My name is Pete and the shelter staff says I'm 35 pounds of 100% goodness. I am stuck in the Rocky Ford doggie jail and no one knows why because I'm simply precious. I am a love bug with people and I don't even potty in my kennel. I hold it and hold it until they take me out. I am about 3-5 years old making me the perfect catch for anyone who wants years with me, and skips the puppy phase. I'll be here in my kennel dreaming about my freedom ride and new family. Is that with you? Can you please help me out of here? (We do not know about dogs yet – but we are working on having a trainer come by with their dog to do a dog test since he is the only one in there!)
*DISCLAIMER*
The La Junta & Rocky Ford shelters are holding facilities for police stations and DO NOT operate like city shelters. They do NOT allow adoptions due to city laws. Only approved PACFA 501c3 rescues can pull dogs from these shelters. Our organization is set up to network the dogs in these shelters to ALREADY approved rescue groups and then coordinate the transportation. We are just volunteers who network the dogs in these 2 shelters to help get them more exposure. These shelters usually give each dog a Duramane 5 Max vaccine but that is all the vetting they receive. There are no vets on staff. We also coordinate transports each week (usually Saturday or Sunday) to the Denver area which is a 5-6 hour round trip drive – we just do the best we can but we are so grateful to have all of you guys to help save these pups! THANK YOU RESCUES
