Margot's Story

Meet Margot!<br/><br/>This gentle mama has been on quite a journey. Honey was pulled off a Texas shelter’s euthanasia list alongside her litter of puppies. After spending time in foster care down south while her babies grew, she made the trek to Colorado. Now that her pups are off to their own foster homes, it’s finally Margot's turn to be the baby.<br/><br/>Her first few days here were bittersweet. She was confused and spent time looking for her pups, but through all the uncertainty, her demeanor remained gentle and loving. Now, she is blossoming before our eyes:<br/><br/>Gentle Soul: She takes food and treats from your hand with the softest mouth and is the definition of a polite houseguest.<br/><br/>Fully Housebroken: Not a single accident in the house, she patiently waits until she’s outside.<br/><br/>The Ultimate Coworker: Working from home? Margot's favorite duty is curling up right at your feet, keeping you company and eagerly waiting for belly rubs.<br/><br/>Brave at Heart: While she can be fearful in new situations, she is remarkably trusting and willing to try anything as long as you're by her side.<br/><br/>Playful Spirit: Her puppy-like joy is starting to peek through! At around 2 years old and 53 pounds, she’d thrive with a confident, medium-to-large dog friend to run and play with. (Fun fact: she is currently living with Chihuahuas and is downright terrified of them, which is hilarious given her size, but we respect her boundaries! )<br/><br/>She will be getting spayed soon, and once she has recovered, she will be ready to step right into her forever home. Bonus: we sent off her DNA test, and the breed reveal is coming in just a few weeks!<br/><br/>This sweet mama deserves to find the forever family she truly deserves!<br/><br/>If you're interested in adopting Margot, apply online at www.uppupandaway.org. Meet and greets only happen once approved as an adopter. If you're already an approved adopter or foster, feel free to DM your interest.

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.
