Let's talk about Bruno! ❤

At almost 1 year old, Bruno is just a big puppy. He is extremely intelligent and eager to please.. and hopeful that his new home will have another dog for him to befriend! Bruno is a goofy guy that is always ready for a good time.

Plus, the staff love to get lost in his crystal blue eyes! 😍💙🐾

If you'd like to meet Bruno, and learn more about his perfect home, please call C.A.R.E. today! 970-947-9173

Bacon is a cool cat, and he knows it.

He's 16lbs, built like a panther, and has an understated confidence that you can't help but want to be around (don't worry, he also has a wild side ready to take on any whirly wand that comes his way).

Bacon is about 3-years-old, blind in one eye (only adding to his allure), and is ready for a like-minded human to take him home. Other cats are currently cool with Bacon, and dog intros at the shelter have gone well too.

Let's get our big guy into a home 🏠

Blue is bidding his old ear canal a final farewell!

After arriving at C.A.R.E. with a deformed, painful ear and a closed canal, our medical team tried antibiotic and steroid treatments to get him comfortable and healthy.

When those efforts weren't successful, it was time for a TECA-BO procedure (total ear canal ablation and bulla osteotomy), performed by our friends at Roaring Fork Veterinary Surgery. During surgery, it was determined that Blue must have suffered an old injury that disconnected his ear canal from his ear. OUCH (we'll spare you the actual photos)!

Thanks to the Wags and Menace Make a Difference Program Foundation and their generous financial support, we don't have to think twice about getting shelter pets like Blue the specialized, life-changing medical care they need. Check out their mission and good work at https://wagsandmenace.org/.

Our boy Blue is healing up well and ready to find his person. Get ready for a fluffy friend with good manners, but also a mind of his own. He loves joyrides in the car, sneaking snacks, doggie playdates, and time in the great outdoors. And his favorite volunteer waived his adoption fee 🙌

*Update: ADOPTED!*
Lucky Loves was found all alone at a Love's truck stop. Our partners at For Pets' Sake in Cortez quickly rescued her, but it took her foster family 3 weeks to gain enough trust to touch her.

Eventually, Lucky was all about asking for pets, rubbing on her people, and even climbing into laps (especially her foster dad's!). Lucky also had plenty of feline friends to play with in her foster home, and she'll probably do best in a cool and calm home with other cat buds.

Lucky is now a C.A.R.E. catroom resident ❤

If our little 7lb, 11-mo-old shelter cat sounds like a fit for your home, give us a call, get your adoption survey in, or stop by!

Do I look familiar? I am a female calico kitten, 4-5 months old. I was found in the Spring Valley area of Glenwood Springs around one month ago. My finder took great care of me, but I would love to go home if I have one! Please call C.A.R.E. at 970-947-9173 if you believe I am your pet
