Animal Rescue of the Rockies is a 501(c)3 non profit Colorado corporation. Organized in 2003 by a group of friends who wanted to provide an alternative to the county shelter, A.R.R. has served this vision well. We've successfully provided foster homes and subsequent permanent homes to hundreds of dogs and cats. Because we don't have a shelter facility, we work exclusively with foster homes to give homeless pets the chance to socialize in a home environment. This gives them the advantage of transitioning to their new forever homes much more easily and quickly.

A.R.R. also works closely with other rescue groups in Colorado. We help with transport, fostering, and adoptions whenever we can. Foster homes are always needed, and there never seem to be enough!  If you can open your heart and home temporarily to help save a pet's life, we would love to hear from you!

Our organization is comprised entirely of volunteers. We depend on community support through fundraising, donations, and proceeds from our thrift shop in Breckenridge, "For Pets' Sake," and your generous donations to run our rescue operations.

Please check out our Donation Page to see how you can touch the lives of the cats and dogs that are in our rescue.

Thank you!
