Happy Memorial Day to all those who served.

🇺🇸🐾 This Memorial Day, we remember the brave souls who gave everything for our freedom.

We also honor the loyal dogs who stood beside them with courage, love, and devotion.

Their service, sacrifice, and unwavering hearts will never be forgotten.

Today, we pause with gratitude for every hero - two-legged and four-legged.

What do you think?

A car in a sunny parking lot can hit deadly temperatures in under ten minutes.

A dog locked inside has no way out and no way to call for help. Police and firefighters arrive and can see the animal in distress.

Should they be able to break that window without waiting for permission? In most places, the law is still unclear. Dogs deserve better than that.

Should they have the right? Yes or No? 🐾

Happy National Rescue Dog Day to all the sweet rescue dogs.
Everyone who has ever owned a rescue dog knows that it is the most rewarding thing to watch them blossom every day. Rescue dogs seem to know that they were saved and are so grateful.

Please consider supporting our rescue so that we can continue the good work of rescuing these special dogs. No donation is too small. Even $5 helps. Feel free to post a picture of your own rescue dog/dogs.

Yes! Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there 🤍

Happy Mothers Day Dog Moms! 🐶

Dog moms know the feeling. The early morning walks, the muddy paws, the little nose nudges, the way they follow you from room to room like you are their whole world.

Mother’s Day is often talked about in one way, but love comes in many forms. For so many women, their dog is family, comfort, routine, joy, and a reason to smile on the hard days. That bond deserves to be seen too.

Whether you are raising a puppy, caring for a senior dog, fostering rescues, or simply giving your fur baby the best life possible, the love you give matters.

So yes, dog moms deserve love on Mother’s Day too.

Tag a proud dog mom who treats her pup like family. 🐾

National Pet Week 🐾

This week, we’re celebrating the pets who become family and the people who open their hearts to rescue.

Every adoption story starts with a second chance. A scared dog learning to trust again. A family finding a companion they didn’t know they needed. A simple moment that changes both lives forever.

At American Dog Rescue, we see those moments happen every day, and they never get old.

To everyone who has adopted, fostered, volunteered, donated, or simply shared a rescue dog’s story…thank you for being part of the mission.

Because every dog deserves safety, love, and a place to call home. ❤️

Big news for animals in Colorado: puppy mill sales are on their way out! 🎉

With Governor Polis’ signature, Colorado has officially become the 9th state to ban the sale of puppies in pet stores—a major step forward in cutting off a key pipeline that fuels cruel puppy mills.

We share this victory with advocates, lawmakers and supporters like you who spoke up for dogs who deserve better than a life of suffering.

When was the last time you stopped and realized your dog is growing older right in front of you? 🐶💔

That’s the hard part about loving them so much. The days feel ordinary while you’re living them, but one day you look back and realize those little routines were the big moments all along. The walks. The couch naps. The way they still look for you first.

So take the extra photo. Stay outside a little longer. Give the treat, the cuddle, the slow morning, the second chance at joy. Their time moves fast, even when our love for them never does.
