Get Your Sit Together Rescue for Misunderstood Mutts - Colorado

28/04/2023

This page was used to help an ailing rescue get their Akitas, Pitbulls, and Sharpei's up to health, and placed in homes, before the rescue shut down. We were able to keep 20 dogs from being euthanzied. I also use it to showcase some of the current rescue dogs I work with that are having a harder time landing in their furever home.

We keep this page up to remember all of the hard work we accomplished as well as to keep those memories of those dogs we donated time to help. It is a reminder how important it is to give back..and we just don't have the heart to delete the progress showcased on the page.

Thank you to Planned Pethood for helping us get the dogs the immediate care they needed, and all of those that helped donate food, toys, and shared the posts to help get all 20 dogs safe and in homes!! Cheers to a group effort!! We very much appreciated all the help!!

JC, Nicole, Tylor, & Danielle.

*Please enjoy the adoption photo of Jax, one of those dogs that was lucky to land in an amazing home!! This was his first time experiencing a cozy bed!

Great Dane Lovers!! 1.5yr old Dew Drop is available and looking for humans with some great grassy areas to 💩 in!

Miss Cookie doesnt understand why no one has had adoption interest in her 🤔

Cookie is 7-8yrs old..loves to go for walks and loves to get pouncey and play with toys, and her human. She LOVES being brushed, and loves head scratches so much so she will flatten her ears down/out to give you more head space to scratch 🤣

If you know anyone that would open their home to a senior girl..Cookie would love to fill that spot❤

*no cats/no other dogs*

Congratulations on your adoption, Ginger!!! You found humans to call your own!!

Ginger had to forgo her botox treatments while this quarantine was in place..and she was worried that her massive "11" lines would affect her adoption chances! Luckily Ginger found humans that not only accepted her wrinkles and all..but they also had the patience and understanding that Ginger would need some time to decompress and let her true loving self shine. Ginger couldn't be happier that they chose to love her!!

Here's to many more car rides with your new humans, Ginger! 🍻

Miss Coco believes that in order to go on public walks..one must always look presentable for possible adoptive suitors she my pass on her route ❤

In case you missed it..Sumo got adopted..and is apparently already living his best life possible!!! ❤

Now to find Miss Cookie that same happy ending!!

Congratulations to both..yeah..that's right..BOTH..Mink and Scooter (formerly known as Scud)!!!

Remember our volunteer, Nicole?! Her and her partner, Tylor, both volunteer to walk the dogs and just so happened to fall in LOVE with these guys!

Mink was our hospice girl, that we were so worried wouldn't find a loving home..boy did she prove us wrong!!!

In the midst of Kino, their beloved dog, being sick, they still both managed to donate time to help walk the dogs stuck in kennels. Sadly..they lost Kino recently, and decided they still had enough love to welcome Scooter and Mink into their home to ensure they both get the love and attention they deserve!

Mink now has the opportunity to finish out her remaining days in a loving home..comfortable..where she is immensely cared for and spoiled with her new big brother, Scooter ❤

Thank you Nicole and Tylor for opening up your hurting hearts so more dogs would experience the comforts of a home, and your love ❤

We couldn't be happier for you!!

It's Merlin Monday!!!

I've honestly no idea why this handsome, quirky, spunky guy hasn't received much interest!!

Merlin is human selective..but, in all fairness..aren't we all?! I know I am! (..and this is JC..the behaviorist that's been working with Merlin)

Merlin did take to me immediately when he met me..but I also did not come at him full force expecting him to be trusting of every human. I allowed him to ease into it..and come to me at his own accord..and an incredible bond was built.

We often forget that most rescue dogs have had it rough at some point in time and do require patience..but make no mistake..these dogs are totally worth it!

The bond that I've built with Merlin is special..because it was earned and not given so freely..and as you can see from this collage of photos..he truly is a lover and a playful goof!

I often refer to Merlin as "Scooby Doo", and our positive reinforcement only regimen consists of many Scooby Snacks (no, not the Colorado fun style altered Scooby Snacks 😂) and when Merlin, who's catch game is usually on point, misses..you'll hear a lot of "Ruh, Roh's" from me.

I've spent endless hours working with this guy over the last months, and it truly saddens me to think we may not find him the home he so deserves :(

Please..if you know of anyone that is open, patient, kind, loving, and that could use some loyal, goofy, companionship in life..let them know about Merlin ❤ He may even be willing to give one of his Merlin hugs ❤

Meet Ranger!

Ranger will be 4 this May and has asked us for an adopter for his birthday!! He is a very happy, well behaved, young man! He is very playful and hoping to find a human all his own!

If you're looking for someone to keep you warm on those long, snowy, cold Colorado nights..Ranger is your man!! Petting Ranger is like sticking your hand inside a bag of cotton balls!! Softy and fluffy ❤

He is good with kids and we will be cats testing and dog testing him in the coming weeks! Page will be updated when said testing is done!

Contact us today to set up a meet and greet appointment!!

*Ranger's tail is usually in the upright position however he was unsure about the camera so it isn't as perky in the photos as it usually is!

See playful video in comments!!

Guess who hit the jackpot today?!?!? Well..it wasn't me!
.BUT..it was certainly Patches!! Patches found his forever home, and he couldn't love his new family more!!!

Patches warmed up immediately to his soon to be humans when he walked in the room to meet them!

His new Mum owns Eva's Grooming in Colorado Springs..so he will get to go to work with her and be the freshest smelling dog in town!! (So if you're in the area pop in and say Hi to Patches!!) His new pop makes his meals fresh.. grass fed beef, a little liver, kidney, peas, bone meal, and nutritional yeast for his gut. (geez..they need to adopt me as I definitely don't eat this good 😱)..and his new human brother is helping him settle into the home and giving him all kinds of love and attention!!

Party on Patches!! You deserve the best and the best is what you got!❤❤

Let's chat about our 8 dogs that are still available!!

8 more dogs you ask?

Yes! 8 awesome more dogs that deserve their fairytail (

29/03/2020

We also found temporary foster homes for the following pups!! So they are excited to be in loving homes while they await their forever homes too..unless they potentially win over their fosters so much..they..*gasp*..fail!!

We love foster failures and consider those to be..rather..successes!

Diesel
Jax
General

29/03/2020

We are EXTREMELY excited to announce that, out of 19 dogs, 8 have been adopted so far!!

Yay to all of the "Happily Ever After" these guys are going to get to experience 🍻

Don't worry..we will be sharing adoption photos soon!!!

29/03/2020

Meet Nicole!

Nicole is a volunteer that has spent endless hours at the rescue walking dogs, bringing them treats, giving them endless love, spearheading the fundraising, recruiting more volunteers to walk the dogs, coordinating vet care, and transporting the dogs to and from (along with many other tasks such as foster/adopter interest contact etc!)

Here she is giving Bishop a pep talk that surely his time to shine and be adopted is right around the corner!!

Bishop is a fun loving..goofy as can be..darling! If your life is missing a few laughs..look no further..we've found them for you!! You're welcome!

Bishop likes to play..his stamina isn't that of a stallion..but he gets in a good 20 minutes hard core before capping out on energy 🤣😂

Bishop would also like you to know that he doesn't snore so he is quite the pleasant bedmate! ;)

29/03/2020

Congratulations to Lui Lui who quickly became a foster fail when she won over Jess, her foster mum turned adopter..and her newly found sister Gracie! We love it when a senior dog gets their chance to shine ❤

Lui Lui is in the perfect home for her where she can let her weird little personality shine on

28/03/2020

Super sweet senior, Cookie, is looking for her furever retirement home. She is around 7-8yrs old. She is eager to learn still and would benefit from a family that would teach her some new tricks. She is a chill older lady and would love nothing more than to take a walk daily, have a yard to relax in and a lap to lay her sweet fluffy face on. If you have space in your life for an older gal, please contact us! Cookie is not a fan of other dogs and would rather be an only dog. Older well mannered kids are ok!

27/03/2020

Please take a look at these beauties and open up your home if you can adopt! We would love for these dogs to finally get into homes. All dogs are neutered/spayed and can meet other dogs if you already have a dog.

Blue Moon Akita Rescue - Colorado

27/03/2020

Merlin just adores his JC. He is extremely thankful she is donating her time to work with him, and all of his buddies needing homes!

26/03/2020

COURTESY POST! PLEASE SHARE!

JC will never admit to having a favorite..BUT..if she did..we are pretty sure Merlin tops off that list �

Merlin is a gorgeous 3.5 year old Akita/Shepard/Cattle dog mix..the trifecta of awesomeness, if you will � Merlin excels at listening (pawsitive reinforcement treat training is working wonders for him!), he loves to be near humans, get love, praise, and has an adventurous spirit!

We cannot understand why he hasn't received much interest �

Check the comments for a fun little action video of this gorgeous boy!!

26/03/2020

Bless his heart 🤣❤ Bishop is trying so hard to learn fetch 🤣😂

Bishop is a bundle of excitement trapped in a body too small to contain all of his happiness. In fact..he gets so happy in his kennel..when people pass by..in hopes they stop to pay attention to him..he wiggles and wiggles while seated on the concrete that it's rubbed most the hair off of his bum area and tail! Once Bishop gets out and can release his happiness..he loves to cuddle and be petted ❤

Bishop is a total people pleaser..and what I like to refer to as, "The Forrest Gump" of dogs as nothing seems to break his spirit ❤

We are not sure why Bishop isn't getting any interest as he would LOVE a human to call his own!

*Fetch isn't his strong suit, but he has an uncanny ability to make a human laugh!*

26/03/2020

Don't let anyone tell you Jax can't focus! This lil man is good with waiting and practicing impulse control..well..unless it's a cat on his radar 😉

26/03/2020

For having 1 working eye..Dasuki's catch game is on point! ❤

Dasuki is still in need of his forever home. He listens..sits..gives paw..and loves some squeaky toys and playing tug of war with his human. Dasuki would also make a great running parnter!

Check out his Album for more photos and information on this fun guy!

Scooter’s look of confusion when we told him no one has applied to adopt his friends in the rescue.

25/03/2020

Merlin, Diesel, and General have been so excited to have toys! Diesel even decided to take his for a walk (see comments) 🤣😂🤭

All of these fun loving boys are still looking for homes, and humans, to call their own!!

24/03/2020

A HUGE thank you to Lauren for donating such great food to the dogs we are trying very hard to get out of boarding before the building is sold and another HUGE thank you to General’s foster family! We are still looking for a foster home for Merlin & Jax.
Please continue to share!

24/03/2020

Lui Lui is looking for her furever home!!

She is a young 10yo Shar Pei..and she loves to play!! She played for a good 20 minutes with JC's puppy..El Jefe..and she LOVED every minute of it!! Don't let her age fool you..she's young at heart!

Lui Lui (or, as JC has nicknamed her..Lululemon), is lovable..well behaved..potty trained..quiet..and just a super low key kind of girl. LuiLui would LOVE a home with a playful dog her size to play with as that's her happy place!!

Don't overlook a Senior girl..she still has a lot of spirit left in her!!

24/03/2020

General LOVES to play!! This sweet boy is in need of a foster or an adopter!

He is super lovable (unless you're a squeaky toy 😱🤣), happy, dog friendly, cat friendly, and just wants to have a human to cuddle and call his own ❤

*General is the brindle mix*

Also..a HUGE THANK YOU to Ann with Red Fern Animal Rescue for being generous enough to donate some toys for our dogs to enjoy!!! Rescues helping rescues ❤

When Blue Moon Rescue closes..I encourage you to turn your foster, and other donation efforts, to them as they have not only helped us out with toys..but have also been generous enough to help us out with some food as well!!
