Airabelle is a young adult cutie weighing about 20lbs.  Airabelle is a Terrier mix and we are guessing she is maybe 1-2 because she still has a good amount of puppy energy. Airabelle is a happy, confident little dog.  She has some puppy energy but not crazy at all.  When she came to the shelter she quickly became attached to another dog in the shelter, Cimbri.  Because of their bond we have decided they need to be adopted together.   Airabelle is the confident one of the two.  She helps brings Cimbri out of her shell.  They love to do zoomies around the yard together and snuggle with their fosters once they wipe each other out.  They both get along with other dogs and Airabelle loves people.  Both dogs sleep in bed with their foster parents because they love to snuggle.  They sleep through the night without any issues.  Airabelle and Cimbri are both wonderful dogs and whoever ends up being their forever family will be inredibly luck!  If you are interested in adopting Cimbri and Airabelle, please fill out our adoption application at brighterdaysdogrescue.com show less

BB is a 3.5MO puppy weighing about 20lbs.  We actually did a breed DNA test on Freya and her siblings and it showed that they are Shepherd/Cattle Dog/Husky/Spaniel.   BB and her 5 siblings were dumped at the shelter in NM in a box when they were only 3 weeks old.  They were bottle fed at first until they were old enough to eat on their own.  They have been in CO for over two months now and are happy, healthy, and ready to find their forever homes now! All six pups are absolutely amazing.  They are crazy happy puppies who love to play hard and sleep harder.  They are doing well with potty training and socializing.  They get along well with other dogs and love people.  They are all being fostered in homes with other dogs and kids and love them all.  We are going to require that these pups go to families who either have another dog or are active since they are active breeds. If you are interested in adopting BB or one of her siblings, please fill out our adoption application at brighterdaysdogrescue.com show less

Callie is a little Terrier mix.  She is about a year old weighing about 10lbs.  Callie was adopted from us back in July 2021 when she was just 8 weeks old.  Callie was returned to us this week because her families situation changed and they didn't think they could provide her what she needed anymore.   Callie is the sweetest little girl. One thing we really want to emphasize is that Callie lights up around other dogs.  She loves other dogs and we are going to require she has a playmate in her forever home.  Before being returned Callie was going to daycare a couple days a week and absolutely loved it.  Callie is potty trained and very well behaved.  It was not her fault what so ever that she was returned to us.  Callie loves to snuggle, go for walks, and play.  She can play by herself and entertain herself with toys as well.  She is just an awesome litttle dog!  She would also be great for someone who wants a small dog who can keep up on adventures such as hikes and runs etc.  She might be small but she is mighty and active!

Chilbert is a 10-11 week old, 20lb Scruff-muffin.  we are GUESSING he is a Boarder Collie/Poodle/X mix, but that is just a guess.  These 4 pups are estimated to be about 45-55lbs when full grown.  Chilbert and his siblings were dumped at a high kill shelter with their Momma at just 7 weeks old.  Their Momma was missing so much fur, underweight, and is heart worm positive.  Becuase of this, their chances of making it out of the shelter alive were slim-none without the help of a rescue.   Chilbert and his siblings have now been in CO with their foster siblings for a couple weeks and are ready to find their forever families.  Their Momma will finish heart worm treatment, which will take a few months, before she is ready to search for her forever family. These babies are wild, goofy, loving, and SMART.  We are guessing they will shed less than an average Border Collie due to the nature of their curly coats, but we cannot guarantee it.  They all get along great with other dogs, kids, and and all people.  They love to romp around the yard and the house, being nutty, happy puppies.  Once they crash for nap time, they crash hard.  They are very loving and snuggly! We envision these pups going to active families or individuals.  They would LOVE being hiking and adventure partners.  Colorado is the home of active humans and we want these pups to have active humans.  We would also love for them to go to people with other dogs to play with - although not a must if their humans are active.  Honestly these pups are the best of both worlds.  Snuggly, active, social, just amazing.

Cimbri is a young adult cutie weighing about 25lbs.  We are guessing she is a Pug/Beagle mix from her appearance, but she was dumped at a shelter without any information so we don't know for sure.  Cimbri was absolutely terrified in the shelter.  Since the shelter was so over crowded she was put in a kennel with another little Terrier, named Airabelle.  Airabelle quickly become Cimbri's saving grace.  They bonded very quickly and Cimbri starting looking to Airabelle for direction and confidence.  They were moved to a foster home where their connection became stronger, and they truly became best friends.  When they made their way to CO we put them in a foster here together and have decided they need to be adopted together. Cimbri is a sweet girl.  She is still shy even after being in foster for over a month, but she absolutely loves her fosters and when they are hanging out on the couch she will come snuggle with them.  It's just strangers she is still a little uncertain about.  She does not have an aggressive bone in her body and her heart is as pure as can be, but her family will need to have patience while she learns to continue to trust.  She loves to romp around the yard with Airabelle and sit in sun spots while the fosters are gone from the home.  She is just an amazing little girl!  She gets along great with other dogs and people.   If you are interested in adopting Cimbri and Airabelle, please fill out our adoption application at brighterdaysdogrescue.com show less

Daphne is a two year old Chihuahua/Pom (?) mix weighing about 15lbs.  Daphne and her sister Velma were part of a hoarding case in Texas a little over a month ago.  Their owner died leaving lots of small dogs behind.  Many rescues got together and made sure they did not end up in a shelter.  Daphne and Velma were the two that ended up coming to CO to Brighter Days in hopes of finding them the best forever families. Daphne is more laid back than Velma is.  Her favorite activity it so snuggle on the couch and hang out under the blankets.  She is a little nervous at first but once she warms up to you she wants nothing more than all your love and snuggles.  She is incredibly sweet and loving.  Daphne will play, and does love to play with the the fosters dog but snuggling is her number one priority.  We would love to see Daphne go to a family who has patience and will not expect an "immediate connection" and understands you are strangers to her until she gets to know you.  She is as sweet as pie but we think she may be happier with a more mellow household so she doesn't get overwhelmed and gets all the one on one attention she missed out on from her previous home.   If you are interested in adopting Daphne, please fill out our adoption application at brighterdaysdogrescue.com show less

Here is what our Trainer has to say about Flapjack: "Omg Mr. Flapjack! Such an awesome dog! Flapjack has come such a long way.  He is great on a leash and very smart.  Flapjack absolutely loves to play with other dogs, but will need to be the only dog in his home due to some resource guarding with other dogs.  He has so much fun at the daily play groups in training and we want to make sure his forever family continues those play groups since they are his biggest joy!  He will be such a great adventure pup and best friend for someone looking for their next sidekick!"

Rue is a 2.5MO, 7lbs unique little pup.  Rue was found on the streets in Dallas Texas.  Becuase of that we don't know her breeds, but most likely she is a mixture of more than a dozen breeds from strays breeding in Dallas.  We are guessing she will be about 30-40lbs when full grown.  Rue has the most adorable brindle legs that make her even more adorable and unique.   Rue has now been in CO for a couple weeks and is ready to find her forever home.  Her fosters have fostered many pups for us and say that she is the best pup they have fostered, yet.  They said she is sweet, playful, but also incredibly snuggly and pretty mellow for a puppy.  She is smart and the easiest pup they have had to date.  They said pictures don't do her justice with how amazing her little personality is.   We would loe Rue to go to a family who really knows how special she is, and who has the time to raise a puppy, and the dedication to give 10-15 years to loving a new 4-legged family member unconditionally.

Velma is a two year old Chihuahua/Pom (?) mix weighing about 15lbs.  velma and her sister Daphne were part of a hoarding case in Texas a little over a month ago.  Their owner died leaving lots of small dogs behind.  Many rescues got together and made sure they did not end up in a shelter.  Daphne and Velma were the two that ended up coming to CO to Brighter Days in hopes of finding them the best forever families. Velma is much more puppy-like than Daphne.  She loves to play with the other dog in her foster home and and do zoomies around the yard.  Both are a little nervous around new people, which is to be expected with everything they have been through.  Once they warm up they are your best friends.  Velma warms up a little quicker than Daphne, we are guessing maybe she is a little younger too.  She loves to snuggle and burrow under the blankets.  A morning of zoomies followed by couch snuggles with a good book and netflix would be her perfect ideal day.
