Ben's Story

Benjamin/Benny/Ben is the perfect puppy and he’s been an easy puppy foster!! He has whole body wiggles when he’s happy (99% of the time) and it’s the cutest thing ever! Ben is a spunky, clumsy, firecracker who will truly will bring an abundance of joy and fun to your life! He is also much smaller in person, he just photographs large. <br/><br/>Benny loves spending time with his humans, being close, giving kisses… but his true passion in life is playing with other dogs. Ben would play 24 hours straight if you let him, so he would love an active family and a dog sibling (or two) to keep up with him! Despite his playfulness, if you put him in the crate for the night/while you’re out/for a break from playing, he is a true angel. He will not fret and will be quiet and patient until it’s time to come out! He sleeps in the crate throughout the night without any issues. He voluntarily goes in his crate when he’s ready for his meal!<br/><br/>Ben is a brave puppy who takes on any challenge with confidence. He loves exploring the world and is very inquisitive. He is extremely treat/food motivated and I truly believe you can teach him anything; he is a mini genius. He picks things up at lightning speed. Some stuff nobody even taught him, he instead learned from watching his doggy housemates: Potty training for example. He quickly learned potty training from the other dogs. No matter how long he is in the crate, he will hold it and go outside! Ben also knows sit, come here, and in general the word “here” gets his attention for eye contact and to come sit or lay down for a treat. He’s even practiced some off leash recall and crushed it!!<br/><br/>If you’re at all interested in Ben, fill out an application!

Up Pup and Away's Adoption Policy
How long will it take to process my application? We are a small rescue group who is ran by volunteers. Please allow us at least 3 business days to process your application and we will get back to you as soon as possible! Please note that we are not a first come first serve rescue. No meet and greets will be scheduled until you have gone through the adoption application & have been approved. Why is the adoption fee so expensive? Our rescues come from all over the globe, and their final destinations are here in Colorado. Our rescue runs solely on donations and adoption fees to continue to help as many dogs as we are able. Because our dogs do come from all different backgrounds (young, old, domestic transfers, international transfers, etc….), we must ensure they are healthy prior to adoption and also spayed/neutered (if of age*) to break the cycle of unwanted litters and pet overpopulation. The average spay/neuter cost here in the Denver area is between $250-$450 just in itself! Together, we can stop the pet overpopulation. I applied to adopt, now what? Please note that filling out an application does NOT mean you have been approved for adoption. We will review the applications and if we feel you are a good fit for the dog you are interested in, we will move forward with the adoption process. If we feel you are a great fit for an adopter, but just not for that specific dog, we will keep your application on file for future rescue pups needing homes. We will check your references, and once we feel you would make a great fit, we will schedule a phone screening. If approved to move forward, we will schedule a home check/meet and greet. Please note that just because you would have a meet and greet, you are NOT approved for adopting that dog. We have a strict policy for which dog ends up being adopted by which family. We are NOT a first come, first serve rescue. Meaning, if you are the very first person to apply, this does not mean you are a match. Our mission is to find each of our dogs their perfect home & we request you respect that.
