The Best Dog Rescues in Larimer County
According to the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, approximately 3.1 million dogs enter U.S. animal shelters nationwide every year.
Even though 2 million dogs are adopted every year, approximately 390,000 shelter dogs are still euthanized every year. Sad.
You can help dogs that end up in shelters/rescues by adopting these dogs.
We have researched and compiled a list of the best dog rescues in your area.
We should mention that our list is not exhaustive because any non-profit organization that takes dogs off the streets and offers dogs second chances deserves to be on our list. However, we do not have the space to include everyone.
If you know of any reputable dog rescue that we have not included on our list, please drop the name of the rescue in our comment section below.
Note that the animal rescues listed in this article did not pay us to include them in the list. We did our research without bias.
As a disclaimer, we will like to advise you to do your due diligence before working with any of the listed dog rescue organizations.
Also, always conduct your research and consult with specialists in your region before making any pet-related decisions.
If you think that rescuing a dog is not for you, and you want to buy a puppy instead, see our article on how much dogs of different breeds cost. Also, see our list of reputable dog breeders in different US states here.

Since 2006, Animal Friends Alliance work on the trap-neuter-return program. They offer low cost spay/ neutered and preventative health care. They educate the community on responsible pet care. Adoptable animals are spayed/neutered, microchipped with registration, vaccinated, de-wormed, medically tested and treated, and dental cleaning. Adopters also receive a free vet exam when adopted.
Animal Friends Alliance is a no-kill shelter.
All Aboard Animal rescue any dog regardless size, breed, temperament, or medical issue. They provide education on the importance of the safety of animals and how to avoid euthanasia. The dogs are rescued from high kill shelters that put the dog on a euthanasia list. They are placed in a foster care until they can be adopted. Adoptable dogs are spayed/neutered and medically examined. Adopters will receive 30 days of free pet insurance.
All Aboard Animal Rescue is a no-kill shelter.
The Mission Statement of Izzy`s Place Senior Dog Rescue: “WE ARE ON INTAKE HOLD FROM MAY 1, 2021 UNTIL SEPTEMBER 1, 2021.
WE WILL NOT BE TAKING ANY ANIMALS IN DURING THIS TIME.
We are a non-profit, no-kill dog rescue in Colorado. Each dog resides in a foster home – we do not have a kennel or shelter. Since each dog resides in a loving foster home it helps us get to know each dog better and thus helps us place each dog in the most appropriate home.
We welcome mature-adult and senior dogs. Normally we only take dogs that are 7 and older, however, in special situations(special need dogs) we welcome younger dogs but that is not the norm. Our mission is to save senior dogs(and mature adult) that have lost their homes, whether owner surrenders or those in shelters.
We are a small organization and rely solely on donations from our supporters. We believe every dog deserves respect and a happy retirement home.
