Dorothy's Story

*We will not be hosting adoption events on May 23 or May 30. Instead, we will be offering private adoption appointments for pre-approved applicants from May 18–31. Please contact us to learn more!*<br/><br/>Dorothy is smart, affectionate, and comes with just the right amount of puppy mischief. She arrived in rescue severely malnourished, but is now steadily gaining weight and thriving in foster care!<br/><br/>She’s an active, wiggly little dog who loves walks, mealtime, and happily trotting alongside her people wherever they go. So far, her favorite treats are scrambled eggs and cheese sticks! Dorothy is doing very well with both kennel training and potty training.<br/><br/>She’s wonderful with kids and enjoys interactive play and gentle wrestling sessions. Dorothy also loves the company of other dogs and has very polite leash manners.<br/><br/>Dorothy is a 1-year-old mixed breed rescued from a high-intake shelter. This dog's adoption fee is $400 and includes up-to-date vaccinations, microchip, 4DX testing, and spay. Dorothy is also tested with other dogs, children, and potty and kennel trained. She is not tested with cats. We would love for you to meet this dog and see if she might be a good fit for your home.<br/><br/>The first step to adoption is completing an adoption application on our website at www.bounceanimalrescue.org. Pending approval, your application is valid for 1 year, and you will be eligible to request a hold on an individual animal for the Saturday adoption event. The hold does not require that you take the animal home, but ensures you get to meet and make an adoption decision prior to other applicants. Also pending approval, you will be able to acquire foster home contact information, so you inquire on personalities of specific animals.<br/><br/>We do offer midweek private adoption appointments for approved applicants pending staff, foster home, and vetting schedules. Because we are 100% foster-based, private adoption appointments are only offered for individual animals. (If interested in viewing multiple animals at one time, we encourage you to attend our adoption events!)<br/><br/>Please note, adoption applications are processed within 1–2 business days. Adoption applications cannot be processed onsite at adoption events.<br/><br/>Our adoption events take place every Saturday from 10am-Noon at Pet Supplies Plus (Front Range Village, 2912 Council Tree Ave #100, Fort Collins, 80525).<br/><br/>For additional questions regarding meeting this dog please contact us via text/email at 970.699.6772 or contact@bounceanimalrescue.org. We apologize for any inconvenience, but due to a high volume of inquiries, calls and voicemails regarding adoption will not be returned.<br/><br/>Thank you for choosing adoption!

Bounce Animal Rescue's Adoption Policy
Thank you for your adoption inquiry! The first step to adoption is completing an adoption application on our website at www.bounceanimalrescue.org/adopt. Pending approval, your application is valid for 1 year, and you will be eligible to request a hold on an individual animal for the Saturday adoption event. The hold does not require that you take the animal home, but ensures you get to meet and make an adoption decision prior to other applicants. Also pending approval, you will be able to acquire foster home contact information, so you inquire on personalities of specific animals. We do offer midweek private adoption appointments for approved applicants pending staff, foster home, and vetting schedules. Because we are 100% foster-based, private adoption appointments are only offered for individual animals. (If interested in viewing multiple animals at one time, we encourage you to attend our adoption events!) Please note, we do not have the ability to process adoption applications at our adoption events, so please plan accordingly. If an application is submitted past 5pm on Monday-Thursday, it will begin review the following day. If submitted on Friday-Sunday, it will begin review on Monday. It takes approximately 1-2 business days for an application to be processed. Our animals’ adoption fees can be found on their individualized adoption listings found on our website (www.bounceanimalrescue.org). Our adoption fees includes up-to-date vaccinations, spay/neuter, 4DX testing (for dogs 6+ months), FeLV/FIV testing (for cats), and microchip! Since we are a non-profit organization, these fees are tax-deductible. Our weekly adoption events take place every Saturday from 10am-Noon at Pet Supplies Plus (Front Range Village, 2912 Council Tree Ave #100, Fort Collins, 80525). The holds for our events expire at 10:30am. Our rescue includes a one week trial period with the adoption of all of our animals. This allows you to take the animal home to ensure it is the perfect fit for you, your family, and lifestyle. If it does not work out, we accept the animal back into rescue and refund half the adoption fee. Please let us know if you have any additional questions. Thank you!
