A Better Beginning Starts with Foster Care

ABOUT RMPR

Mission Statement

Rocky Mountain Puppy Rescue’s mission is to save unwanted puppies and young adult dogs from being euthanized in overcrowded kill shelters. We place these rescues with foster families until they are adopted to their forever homes. We promote our mission through educating the general public about spaying and neutering their pets, proper exercise, feeding, grooming and training. We take pride in the fact that we are a no-kill rescue and placement program that does not euthanize the animals we rescue if they are not adopted within a certain length of time. Rocky Mountain Puppy Rescues’ intention is to find loving FOREVER homes for these beautiful creatures through careful adoption placement.

Double Trouble

Thank YOU for all the work that all of you do. The joy that our 2 rescues from RMPR bring us everyday is the best! Keep up the good work!!!

Twombly

Our beloved Twombly, whom we adopted in July of 2011 as a young pup from a litter born 5/22/2011 and fostered by your special organization, passed away last week just a couple months shy of her 15th birthday. She had been in remarkably good health until the very end so her suffering was thankfully brief. We are so overwhelmed with gratitude for her singular presence in our lives these many years and are heart broken by our loss, as inevitable as it may be. You couldn’t possibly know you’d given us the greatest dog in the world, but somehow that’s just what you did. Thank you. And thank you for all you do.

Cooper

Just had to reach out. We adopted our amazing pup cooper (he was called indigo at the time) from you back in April of 2020. Cooper has been a godsend to our family. He is the most amazing sweetest dog ever. We feel so lucky to have found him. We tell everyone we know who is thinking of getting a dog to check you guys out.

Cooper

My family adopted a puppy from you back in early 2011, I was about 13 at the time. His name was Pimento but we renamed him to be Cooper. Cooper passed away this week at the age of 13 and I just wanted to say thank you for giving me my soul puppy. We grew up together. I have had him for half of my life and he was with me through high school, moved out with me into my first apartment, and finally was there when we bought our first house. He was there for it all. I can't imagine now going forward in life without him by my side but it was his time and I am so thankful for all of the amazing years that we had together. We have made a donation in his honor which isn't much but just wanted to say thank you and show our appreciation for everything that you gave us.

Bentley

In January 2016, my husband and I came to an adoption event you were hosting, and we were immediately bonded for life with our pup Bentley (foster name Moose/Berkshire). We wanted to share that after 10 years with the best memories, he crossed the rainbow bridge peacefully at home with us this past Monday. We are so grateful for this organization and all the work you do to give rescue animals a new life. Bentley was such a special part of our family, and while we are so sad he is gone, we're left with some beautiful memories we will always remember. We've donated in his memory, and wanted to share a few pictures with you all. One of your employees (I believe it was Kim?) fostered him in the beginning when he was Moose, so we would love to share with her especially what a good life he had. Thank you again for everything, and perhaps one day we can help with fostering and would love to volunteer.

Pax

I just wanted to share how happy we are to have our new family member with us! Formerly Petey, now named Pax, we adopted him through you all at an event on the 15th. I was so impressed with the whole process of the adoption, and the care every one took to ensure he was going to a good home (application, phone call, etc). He is perfect for us and settling in wonderfully. He has already learned 8 commands, is such a snuggle bug and is great pals with our older rescue dog. Thank you for the work you do!

Ruby

My husband and I adopted a wonderful puppy over the weekend, Butterscotch, but she has a new name, Ruby. She is so beautiful, smart and loving! We couldn’t be more happy! I want to thank you for the amazing work you have done saving so many dogs! I think most people go through their lives just going through the “motions” and then others like you, who really make a difference in life, and change the world!

Turkey

I just wanted to send a note of thanks to your organization and to Spur’s (now Turkey) foster family. He is the BEST puppy ever and we love him so much. I can tell that he was well loved in his foster home and am so grateful for the head start he was given. His description was spot on, and he is learning so fast (especially with our older dog as a role model). We will forever recommend Rocky Mountain Puppy Rescue to anyone who will listen.
