Then I'm your dog!  Choose me and New Hopes Adoption Coordinator will give you a call & we can go from there.  Thanks for your interest & Hello to a great adventure finding a new best friend!

My shelter name is Margie, but my foster family calls me Penny. It just seems to suit me better. I arrived from New Mexico, where I was found as a stray. My foster family thinks that I didn't spend much time inside before I got to Colorado because everything is so new to me! I am quickly learning what is okay to chew on (they tell me no legos or remotes after I took some nibbles) and how to walk on a leash. I am very smart and learned how to go up and down the stairs and onto sofas and beds in no time. I sleep in my crate at night and potty outside. I am a high energy and loyal gal. I love belly rubs and to explore the yard outside with my dog foster brother. My enthusiasm for everything and wanting to play 24/7 makes him very nervous though. And I tend to growl when my dog foster brother gets too close to the person I am with. I snuggle well with my human foster brother, who is 8 years old. Once I find the right home, with lots of patience and a family willing to teach me, I will be a great dog.

Caramel is a sweet 3 1/2 month old boy. He’s athletic and loves being active – playing with other dogs, spending time with people, and exploring wherever he can. He’s comfortable in a crate for resting or sleeping overnight, his potty training is going very well, and is good about sitting for a treat.

Hi there I'm Jolene! My foster mom doesn't know my whole story, but I came to her with a broken leg and very guarded. My leg is all better now and boy do I love hiking, running, walking - anything active really!! I am learning to trust people and need someone that's up for learning from my foster mom what helps me do well in different environments along with patience. My little nub of a tail doesn't stop wagging and I can never get enough cuddles if we are pals. I do hate to be picky, but I need to be the only animal in the household....that seems to do wonders for my anxiety. I haven't quite learned how to play with other dogs so sometimes I bark a bit because I feel unsafe. Car rides I am getting better with each trip. I call dibs laying behind the driver's seat :) Last thing, I'm great if you need to leave me alone. I understand you have a life! I also promise to give the best welcome home greeting when you come back! I'm grateful for you considering me and hope we can meet soon. Love, Jolene.

Hey there, I've just arrived at New Hope and my foster family is working hard to write my biography. Check back soon to read more about me or complete an adoption application so that my foster home can set up a meet and greet with you. We just might be the perfect match!

Shamika lives in an apartment with her current family. They got her as a puppy and now the she has grown believe she would be better off in home where she has a yard and room to run and play. They have come to New Hope for assistance with finding her new forever family. Below is Shamika's information and a short Bio. If interested kindly contact her current owner - Kim - directly via email: kimpossible451@gmail.com or cell: 720-561-9042 Pet Information: Shamika (Mika) is 20 months old, spayed, and fully vaccinated. She is a very good dog, loves to run and play, and gets along nicely with other dogs. We aren't how she is with small children or if she is okay around cats.

There are TEN puppies (six shown). 5. They are super-cool little puppies! 6. They are ready for their homes on 19 March 2022 so get your application in NOW!

Josie is a very sweet girl with a ton of love to give! She was found as a stray in Texas but since arriving in Colorado loves all things living in a house, especially snuggling with her foster parents! She is great in her crate and sleeps soundly in it over night (she wants me to say that peanut butter kongs are a plus). She’s quick to learn and already knows tricks like “sit” and is very treat motivated. Her foster parents’ friends come over often and she generally barks at them for a minute or two, but once she realizes they are nice she immediately melts into their arms for scratchies. Josie needs someone with patience to work on her leash reactivity. Right now, she has a hard time being on a leash and walking past people and dogs, but her foster parents are starting to work on it with a trainer and think that with the right person she can make a lot of continued progress! A single-dog home might be ideal, but she currently lives happily and reaction-free in a house with a foster-dog-sister. So, while the meeting would require some patience and care due to her reactivity, we think she could adjust to a multi-dog home. If you are willing to exchange some patience and training for a whole lot of love, Josie is the dog for you!

Blaze is almost 4 months old and ready for his next adventure. He loves playing with other dogs and exploring new things. He's also a great snuggler and wants to be close to his people.

Nugget was spared his life with an hour to spare from a kill shelter in TX. He is about 2 yrs old, learning to take treats gently, and walks well on a leash. Due to us not knowing much about him we are suggesting kids 8 and older. Nugget likes people and most dogs but slow introduction us recommended. His temp foster in TX says he's very curious of the feral cats on her property so guessing no cats. He will be here for the adoption event Sunday 5/15 thanks to a great group of volunteers willing to drive him to CO....

Poppy is currently located at a shelter in Dodge City, Kansas. New Hope is listing her as a courtesy. Information about Poppy featured here was provided by the shelter, If you are interested in learning more kindly contact Toni Meyers at 620-430-3277. ---------------------------------------------------- Poppy is submissive to other dogs and very people friendly. She appears to be ACD/Golden Retriever mix, about 2 years old, and weighing around 40lbs. She was dumped at an abandoned farm in the middle of nowhere with her 8 puppies. The puppies were taken in by the people who found them, and rehomed.

Katara has been with our rescue for 6 weeks. In those weeks she has learned to share, some commands, rides great in a car, walks well on a leash …. All big strides from living in a tough past. She just had her 1st Heartworm injection on 4/26 and did fine. Keeping her calm is not an issue as her personality is just that . Katara did not seem interested on her cat meet until the cat got her nose she backed off but all could be different in a home. She is dog and child friendly but is cautious until she knows treats will be given. Her 2 nd and 3rd hw injections will be the end of May but she can still find her new home now. Katara loves to cuddle and I’m sure she is happy to be given good care….

Max is a male blue heeler looking for a active heeler savvy home. His adopter needs to provide leadership , exercise and love. Max cannot be in a home with children. Teenagers with Heeler experience are a possibility. He was not raised around children and is not comfortable with them. He is good with other dogs. Leash and crate trained.

Hi, I'm the little man Sparky -- and I am a little Spark-man! My momma is Ramona and she has already found her forever home. She is one of the sweetest dogs ever--I will probably turn out to be the same. I am one of ten puppies and I was born while under the care of New Hope Cattle Dogs Rescue. That means that I was never abused or mistreated. I'm just a loved little puppy who is now looking for a home to call his own. I would love to call that place with you! Fill out at application today!

My name is Three. I came from a situation in Kansas where my owner had too many Heelers (I guess there is such a thing). I was really scared at first but am warming up mostly thanks to my new best friend Sadie who is also available for adoption. I am mellow and will approach for affection if you are sitting on the couch or floor but I am still a little hand-shy. I know how to use the doggie door and am not vocal when I am outside. I can be trusted with free roam of the house while you are away but I may like to climb on the couch like a mountain goat so that I can look outside. I will need a patient owner to help me feel comfortable with a harness and leash so that I can leave the house and explore more of Colorado.

My name is Bandit. I was rescued from a shelter in small town TX. I'm 2yrs-ish old and about 40lbs.. I'm settling in nicely at my New Hope Foster home. City living has new challenges like getting comfortable around bikes, cars etc. but I'm improving w/each walk I take. My foster is teaching me to go outside to do my business & I sleep good in by crate at night. I'm looking for a active, PATIENT home that will continue to teach me and reward me with lots of LOVE & SNUGGLES!!!

Do you like to cuddle? Because I sure do. I can be shy at first but after a couple minutes of warming up I want all your love and attention. I just learned how to go on walks/hikes and am loving every second of it, riding in the car on the way to the trail can still be a bit intimidating though. Lots of things are still new to me and I can get spooked by loud noises or things I’m unsure of, but with you by my side I’m willing to brave any challenge. I need to be the center of attention at home and don’t like to share my human or my space with other dogs or animals. Being inside is new to me and I have been adapting great with no accidents and good habits of letting you know when I need to go out. While at home I like to lay on the couch or climb up it to look outside but I’ll go wherever you go and if possible, lay in your lap while you are working.

SadieBear is here and I am one sweet girl! I was born in Clovis, NM approximately 4 years ago and recently traveled to Colorado to find my forever family. I might look like just another black and white dog but when you lean in to kiss my head you will see that my color is a beautiful, dark chocolate brown. At night, I sleep soundly on my bed with a cozy blanket. During the day, I can be a vocal busy body if I don’t have my exercise. Walking is a great exercise for me and I’ve got a steady trot going. I know how to use the doggie door and like to go outside to keep the pests out of the backyard. In the house and the yard, I am confident and vocal and I don’t take any guff from the tree rats nor the neighbor dogs. With my person, I am happy and loving and I like hugs and kisses but I am not needy. I am doing well riding in the car and am learning that it is safe and fun to walk on leash in the neighborhood and on the trail. I am still cautious of moving vehicles and of strangers approaching. My new best friend is Three who is also available for adoption. We love playing together. Hope to meet you soon. Love and kisses, Sadie Sunshine.
