Meet Brownie #11

Animal Rescue of the Rockies believes every pet should find a wonderful and caring home. To ensure each pet finds the best possible home, we ask you fill out our adoption application so we can learn more about you and your household. We review each application in the order submitted and will contact you within 72 hours (please check your spam folder for our emails) . Brownie #11 | 1-year-old Aussie mix | Sweet, Smart, and Ready to Cuddle! Brownie is a beautiful 40-pound Aussie mix with a sweet personality and a big heart, especially when it comes to women! She’s incredibly affectionate, loves cuddling, and will happily rest her head on you, offer you a paw for pets, or roll over for belly rubs. She’s also a smart girl who knows several commands and is very motivated by treats. Brownie enjoys walks, fetch, toys, and even 1–2 mile jogs, but she’s just as happy to settle down and relax with her people afterward. Brownie is super playful and absolutely loves having a dog friend! She gets along wonderfully with other dogs, is non-reactive on walks, and does great with cats and children. She would especially thrive with another confident dog who can be a fun playmate and help her feel more secure. Brownie is, however, very fearful of men, particularly those with deeper voices or larger builds. She may bark or try to move away, so she’ll do best in a female-only home where she can feel safe and build confidence at her own pace. If male visitors come over, she does better when they ignore her and give her space rather than trying to interact. With patience and understanding, Brownie has so much love to give! She’s doing well with housetraining and can stay home alone for a few hours, although she may whine or bark initially. Crating is still a work in progress, and she can be a bit of a counter surfer when food is within reach, so keeping snacks out of reach is a must! Brownie is still gaining weight and growing her fur back, but she’s making progress every day. This sweet, clever, playful girl is ready to find a loving home where she can feel secure, enjoy adventures, have a confident canine buddy to play with, and soak up all the affection she deserves. If you and the dog are a good match then we'll connect you with our dog's foster parents to chat more in-depth. If both you and the foster agree that the dog is a good fit then a meet and greet is scheduled. We require applicants' dogs to meet ours to ensure they get along. We'll ask you to read and sign our adoption agreement and pay the adoption fee to complete the adoption when it comes time. Our adoption fees help cover the costs of saving more lives! A home visit will be scheduled within one week of your new pet going home with you. The adoption fee for this pet is $400. Our adoption fee covers the following: Spay/neuter Microchip DAPP vaccinations as age-appropriate for the dog. Rabies vaccinations as age-appropriate for the dog. Adopters shall be responsible for all vaccinations after adoption. Please fill out an adoption application by clicking here . Please give us 72 hours to review your application and respond to you. (Remember to check your spam folder for our emails!) We want our pets to go to a lifelong new home, so thank you for your patience during the adoption process! Please email dogs@arrcolorado.org for more information, as we can't accept calls.
