C2R is non-profit 501c3 rescue dedicated to rescuing homeless animals. No paid staff - 100% volunteer Without these people Circle 2 rescue could not operate.
Circle 2 Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization and is supported entirely from the generous donations of animal lovers. A network of committed volunteers, foster homes, and local veterinarians are the backbone of our organization. We are determined to keep administrative expenses low so every dollar donated goes directly to our programs. We rescue the old, the infirm and the young. The aban
doned, abused and injured. We believe that every life is valuable regardless of age or medical issues. We nurture and heal the physical and emotional wounds of animals, rehabilitate them, and find them loving forever homes. Upon arrival, they receive a “Nose to Toes Health Care Exam”, which includes: a routine checkup, spay or neuter, dentals and vaccinations. We strive to increase public awareness of companion animal overpopulation issues and provide solutions that end the killing of adoptable animals in an effort to advance animal welfare and create a more humane world for animals.

Tripp says being adopted feels so good💙.
He hails from the Navajo Nation where his family left him behind. Both his foster parents and his adoptive family marveled at his tender soul, good manners and affectionate nature. He is respectful of dogs and still devoted to people despite his last humans failing him.
Please remember that rescue dogs are not damaged. 🐾
They are resilient and live in the truth that they deserve love. 🐶💟
Happy life Tripp! So glad our paths crossed. Thank you Cheryl, Lisa, Charlie, Buddy, Gabe, and Deb for helping Tripp on his journey to a forever home.

Meet Spook and Elvira, two young schnauzers, around 4-5 months old, who have already been through a lot in their short lives. After their home tragically burned down, a kind neighbor found them and brought them to safety. Due to their past, these sweet pups are understandably frightened of just about everything and haven't had much human interaction. While they’re not aggressive, they’re incredibly timid and tend to freeze in place when scared. Spook and Elvira are looking for a patient, gentle person who can show them the love and care they’ve missed out on, and help them build trust. They’re not house trained yet, but with time, patience, and consistency, they’re sure to blossom into loving companions. They do not have to be adopted together.
SPECIAL THANKS TO Wild Whiskers Pet Salon FOR GROOMING THESE BABIES!

Dawson's first day of class where he is learning how to be the best doggie he can be! He looks a little skeptical but his adopter tells us he did fantastic! Training is such fun and invaluable way to bond with your new pet - and you get a well behaved companion for the rest of their lives!
Dawson's previous owner ended up in jail and we are so happy that we could rescue him so he didn't suffer the same fate.

Meet Lavender, a sweet and playful two-year-old kitty who just finished raising her five beautiful babies. Lavender was one of the best momma cats her foster family has ever seen—always patient, never getting tired of her kittens, and giving them all the love and attention they needed. Now that her mom duties are done, Lavender is rediscovering her playful side!
She sometimes shows her affection with gentle love bites, a quirky way of reminding you how much she adores you. It took her a little time to warm up to the other two cats in her foster home, but now they are great friends. She is cautious around dogs at first but shows signs that she could learn to trust and warm up to them over time. Lavender is ready for a loving forever home where she can continue to thrive!
Max is an adorable French Bulldog and Pug mix! He has a compact frame with the characteristic stocky build of a French Bulldog. As you might expect, Max adores being held and takes his job as lap dog very seriously! People are his favorite thing ever and he bonds quickly, preferring to be included in whatever is going on. He likes the yard and gets a potty break every 2 hours. As long he is allowed outside frequently, he has not had any accidents except for his first day in his foster home. His coat is short and sleek and he is mostly tan in color. His expressive eyes and floppy ears give him a charming, inquisitive look. He’s a curious little explorer with a playful spirit, always ready for an adventure. He’s also quite the cuddle bug, often seeking out a warm lap to curl up in after playtime. Max enjoys his playtime and daily walks but also knows how to relax. While Max loves the girl dogs, he is bossy with other male dogs so he has requested a home without other male dogs. Max belonged to a breeder but she went out of business and rehomed Max. He is approximately 6.5 years old.
For all of you who have helped us with Sorrel - We have a happy update from her foster mom. She is happy and feeling good after her recent knee surgery! Her foster brother Kuro keeps her in good spirits and is very devoted to Sorrel's well being. 🏵 This girl has been through more than any dog should including living on the streets for months before becoming pregnant with 9 puppies. After she was rescued/lost she had to spend several days at the vet being treated for malnourishment and dehydration. After that she was treated for heart worm, and had to have an eye removed after it just would not heal. We hope this knee surgery will be the last distress this girl every encounters. For anyone who has followed her journey, you know we are shedding joyful tears when we see her in this video where she is finally exhibiting the carefree happiness that she has likely never known before. Special thanks to her wonderful fosters and everyone who cheered for and supported us financially with Sorrel's recovery. She was certainly worth it. She is available for adoption through circle2rescue.com

PLEASE SHARE: This little boy may be dressed as a frog, but give him kisses and he’ll be your Prince Charming forever! We can’t believe that no one has adopted Winston yet. We included a pic of him in “prince form,” just so you can see how handsome he is.
Winston was found in Texas in rough shape by an incredible rescuer. He was hairless from mange, covered in sores, had major eye injuries, and was half starved. We quickly went to work, and now Winston is in healthy condition and ready for a home of his own.
Despite his trials and tribulations, Winston is a brave, social boy who loves every person he meets! He wants to snuggle all the time. If not snuggling, he loves accompanying his people for any adventure. Winston would make a lovely emotional support animal, companion to someone who works from home, or even a family with kids who can include Winston in all of their activities. Winston is great in the car. He has good potty habits and crates well when his people are gone. While Winston does currently reside with other dogs, he doesn’t seek them out to play, and definitely tries to command all the attention! The only naughty thing this boy does is chase cats, so he needs a feline free household.
We think Winston is just a young guy at 1 to 2 years old, and is probably a purebred shih tzu, though we can’t guarantee that. He is non shedding, which is lovely, but he’ll require regular grooming once his full coat comes in. More hair (especially on his tail) will come with time! He weighs in at 10 lbs now, but could still stand to gain more weight.
UPDATE. FOSTER FOUND
FOSTER NEEDED! PLEASE SHARE! We were just in time to save this handsome boy from being euthanized because the shelter was out of space (yes, that happens daily). We had a foster lined-up for him before we tagged him but you know what they say about the best laid plans. 🙄. Take a look at his shelter and freedom videos and see if you can find it in your heart to help Alfie, (FKA Fred in the shelter).
Alfie has been in a temporary foster home in TX for about 2 weeks and is doing wonderfully! He arrives in Colorado on SATURDAY.
He is friendly and social with the other dogs in his foster home but prefers calmer energy. He is slightly intimidated by boisterous play. He is doing good on his house training and is learning that his crate is a good space. He whines for a few minutes but then settles in. His foster family reports he is especially cuddly and loving and adores receiving pets and attention. That said, he is easily startled by loud, sudden noises and will bolt if he is frightened. He needs a secure yard and guardian who is able to keep him safe as he decompresses. Alfie is a around 2 years old according to the shelter vet and appears to at least some Dutch Shepherd in him.
Alfie has a heart full of love waiting to be shared. He is a bit of a wallflower, preferring the company of kind humans and friendly dogs. He may take a little time to warm up, but once he feels comfortable, his playful side shines through!
If you can foster or foster to adopt Alfie, please complete an application on our website: https://www.circle2rescue.com/dog-foster-application/

The last little house tiger just went home! This litter was incredibly adorable, and I loved each one of them dearly. The fact they each went to a friend makes me extra happy as I’ll get to see them grow and thrive! I’ve gotten many update photos already- so cute to see each baby exploring their new surroundings and getting to know their furry and human family members. A giant thank you to each adopter- you truly saved a life and supported a fabulous rescue organization. This little striped bunch will have the happiest of lives!

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this boy! His calm, tender demeanor, his pretty long, lashes, his adoring gaze, his gorgeous coat. Tripp is the whole package! This young pup is great with other dogs and has made fast friends with the other male lab in his foster home. He also is quick to make friends with humans and wastes not time forming a devoted bond to his people. Tripp is from the Navajo Nation where he was left behind after the family attended a recently gathering. They just packed up after the event and left Tripp wondering what the hell happened. Thankfully one of our trusted helpers spotted him and took him into her home with her 6 other dogs. She reached out to us for help and now Tripp is here in Denver with his wonderful foster family! Tripp is a loving and loyal companion, ready to find a forever home where he can be cherished. In addition to his handome good looks, Tripp Tripp is a gentle boy who meets new dogs and people with a tail wag but isn't over-exuberant . He enjoys walks with his foster dad, chasing after toys, and hanging with his foster dog brother who is around 5 years of age. His friendly disposition makes him great with both people and other dogs. Tripp is eager to learn and would thrive with some basic training. Whether it's a family with kids or a couple who loves outdoor adventures, Tripp is ready to bring joy and companionship into your life. If you're looking for a devoted friend who will brighten your days, Tripp is your guy! Tripp is a 1 to maybe 2 years old and only weighs 40 lbs!
Sweet Savannah is loving life as a pampered princess! As it should be! After spending MONTHS living on the streets WITH A BROKEN LEG, Savannah was rescued! One of our partner rescuers was able to trap her and get her to vet where we learned that her leg could not be salvaged. Even in such distress. Savannah's loving demeanor stood tall. Her adopters tell us she is still a little reticent in new situations but has come so far and is learning to play and enjoy the luxury of a worry-free life.

Can anyone give these 2 brothers a ride from Raton NM to Denver? They are 4.5 months of age and perhaps 10 lbs. Chiweenies! This weekend would be great!
10/16/2024
Jupiter and Saturn are gorgeous white and orange kitties who are approximately 6.5 months old. Their foster dad reports they are very snuggly and love attention! They were found by a caring citizen on the side of the road. This is what she told us. "When we found them they were huddled on the dirt road & the one brother had his arm around his brother. I've never seen a cat protect her or his sibling like that before. " We are asking that these bonded brothers be adopted together.

Little Winston is proof of what TLC can do! After months on the streets as a stray, this sweet boy came to Circle2 extremely emaciated, virtually hairless, covered in sores, and had some painful eye injuries. In just 6 weeks he looks and feels like a new dog- his wounds and eyes have healed, his hair is coming back, and he’s slowly putting on weight!
Despite his poor condition, Winston’s loving personality was immediately evident and has only continued to blossom! He is so grateful for any and all of the human attention that he can get. That said, Winston has made it clear that he wants to be top dog in his forever home. While he does coexist well with his canine foster siblings, he doesn’t like to share lap time or snuggles- Winston is definitely an attention hog and likes to be star of the show! His adopter(s) need to be ready to devote lots of love and time to this little guy.
In addition to cuddling, Winston loves to explore the big yard at his foster home, go on walks, follow the humans everywhere, and eat! Oh- and he likes to chase cats. This behavior has not been stoppable, so Winston needs to go to a kitty free household.
Winston has very good potty manners, and is crated at night and when his foster parents are away from home. He does wonderfully on car rides. Winston will have a long, non shedding coat typical of the shih tzu breed (he may be a purebred, though we can’t guarantee that!) that will need regular grooming. He currently weighs in at 10 lbs, but could stand to gain another pound or two. The vet thinks this young man is just a year or two old!
If you would like to adopt please apply at https://www.circle2rescue.com/dog-adoption-application/ The adoption fee of $375 includes the spay/neuter, vaccinations, deworming and microchip.

Rest in Peace baby girl. I'm sorry we couldn't get to you and your siblings and mom in time to save you. We didn't have a foster for you and we believed your owners when they said they would keep you for us until we could come back. Instead one of you got ran over, one of you ran away, and you and your brother froze to death or starved to death. Sorry to those of you eho find this truth difficult but this is an every day dilemma for rescues. We were trying desperately to find something for you and figure out how to get you from 550 miles away. But that day we also had an impatient person demanding that her questions and concerns warranted an immediate response. She is so pi**ed off because i was at work and dealing with my boss while also trying to figure out something for you. My efforts fell short on all accounts. But the impatient person is the only one I don't regret. She didn't care about any thing else but herself. Please remember that your rescue and shelter people are working their asses off. You have no idea the heart break that they might be dealing with that day.

Hi there! I’m Dawson, a playful and loving black lab puppy looking for my forever home. Life has thrown me a curveball, and I recently lost my first home, but I’m ready to start fresh with a new family who will love me unconditionally. I like to explore, chase after toys, and make new friends. My tail wags enthusiastically when I’m happy, which is pretty much all the time! I’m learning the ropes of being a good boy, and I’m eager to please. I’m also a quick learner and excited about training—especially if there are treats involved! I’m looking for a family that can provide me with plenty of love, attention, and exercise. I love playing in the yard and going for walks, and I would thrive in an active home. If you have other pets, that’s great! I love making new friends, and I’m sure I’d get along with them. I’m still working on my puppy manners, and I’m ready to learn some tricks and commands with a little guidance and patience. I love belly rubs and will do anything for one!
If you’re ready to welcome a loyal companion into your life, I can’t wait to meet you! Let’s start our new adventure together!

Circle 2 Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization and is supported entirely from the generous donations of animal lovers and through our adoption fees. We have a network of committed volunteers, foster homes, and local veterinarians who are the backbone of our organization. Without these people Circle 2 rescue could not operate. 100% of our funds go toward the animals - we do not have any paid positions. We are determined to keep administrative expenses low so every dollar donated goes directly to our animals. We operate on a shoestring budget and rely on our incredible volunteers to provide loving foster homes, shuttle dogs to vet appointments and work applications so we can find quality homes that are a great match for our pups!
We rescue the old, the infirm and the young. The abandoned, abused and injured. We believe that every life is valuable regardless of age or medical issues. Our job is to nurture, heal, and love the animals and then place them with carefully screened adopters.
Circle 2 Rescue saves 400 - 450 animals a year. We take special needs dogs and those needing medical attention, not just the cute, cuddly puppies that everyone loves to love. Some of our companions stay with us for several months while they receive the care they need. The $250 adoption fee for adults barely covers the cost of rescuing a healthy dog. If they need extra veterinary care the adoption fee is not enough to cover the costs.
Your donations are critical . Every dollar makes a difference. Here is what your donations can do:
$15 pays for a microchip
$25 pays for a rabies, distemper, or bordetella vaccination
$30 feeds an animal for a month
$50 pays for a veterinary exam
$75 pays for one neuter surgery
$100 pays for one spay surgery
$150 refuels our van to transport the dogs from small, rural communities in Montana and high kill shelters in Texas.
$250 covers the cost of getting a dog ready for adoption. ie. spay or neuter, vaccinations, deworming, microchip and food
$500 will spay 5 female dogs
$1,000 sponsors 4 dog adoptions (covers all spay/neuter, vaccinations, microchip, food, etc.)
$5,000 covers veterinary expenses for all animals in foster care for one month
