Another successful transfer day is in the books. Welcome to snowy Colorado dear friends!

(Huge kudos to our dedicated foster homes, drivers, and transfer partners. Reward yourself with a glass of wine. Or five.)

Good evening friends. We are pleased to introduce

Good evening friends. We are pleased to introduce Raven, a 9 month old, husky/cattle dog mix. Like your typical husky, she’s as athletic as Michael Jordan, and like your typical cattle dog, she’s as clever as the writers of “Schitt’s Creek”.

Raven originally came to us from Texas, was adopted as a puppy (bébé), and returned into our care last month. With all these moves, she has become a well-versed traveler, and has developed into a versatile companion.

Raven requires a family that enjoys activity, lets her sleep in the human bed, and feeds her peanut butter 38372x a day. She’s a socialite and would really like a family that throws large holiday parties (or fundraisers benefitting Bounce...?!). She also adores children and other dogs. Felines aren’t really her thing, so litter box friendly homes need not apply.

If you’re interested in adding her to your home, please apply at www.bounceanimalrescue.org.

Well, it’s another trip around the sun for this

Well, it’s another trip around the sun for this little diva. Some of you may remember her from last year’s 25 Days of Christmas - if not, this is Grandma. She entered our care on February 23, 2019. To put it in laymen’s terms she has been with Bounce Animal Rescue for 665 days, or 95 weeks, or 21 months. She is officially our longest stay, which quite frankly, given her cushy foster home life, she has no problems with.

Grandma is a peculiar canine. She likes to cuddle, but only on her terms. When cuddling, she likes to touch you, but not be touched. She is too dignified to utilize the outdoor commode regularly. She’s a picky eater, unless it’s anything but dog food. Neighborhood walks are only acceptable in golf carts. Martini in hand, she yells at kids to get off her lawn.

When Grandma was a pup, she walked 15 miles to school! Barefoot! In the snow! Uphill! Both ways!, so understandably so, now wants a hermit lifestyle. She is looking for an adopter that can keep up with nonstop Golden Girls quotes, has no children, relaxed rules, and hours of backgammon. Think you can keep up? Apply at www.bounceanimalrescue.org.

Thank you and Happy Holidays!

Many have begged for this burly bloke’s feature,

Many have begged for this burly bloke’s feature, so we thought it best that he be our 17th Day of Christmas post. Plead and you shall receive.

We proudly introduce Dakota, a 3 year old malamute mix. While northern breeds are very rarely within our niche, Dakota’s rescue pitch was so perfect we now have stock in submarines with screendoors. Dakota came to us from a family that took great care of him, but was overly occupied by numerous other animals and small screeching children. Because Dakota is a sensitive soul and didn’t have access to noise canceling headphones, he quickly became overwhelmed and decided the back of the couch was his only refuge.

Let’s skip a couple steps and get to Dakota’s time with Bounce. While he’s still very sensitive and would prefer a quieter environment, he has adjusted well within a stable foster home. He does not enjoy that Kevin’s parents in Home Alone are so careless two years in a row. He also does not care for cats (and argues, any sane dog shouldn’t). Dakota’s energy levels are between comatose and a mile walk, so no Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Racing for him. Finally, he demands compliments, numerous hours of undivided attention, dropped food, and squirrel chasing.

Interested in adding him to your home, please visit www.bounceanimalrescue.org.

Thank you and Happy Holidays!

For the 16th Day of Christmas, we present Belle. Y

For the 16th Day of Christmas, we present Belle. Yes, we know every dog in rescue is named Belle. Or Stella, Daisy, Lucy, or Molly. She came in knowing her name, and deserved some small sense of normality. Belle weighs in at about 90lbs, and 80 of those pounds are her jowls. (If you ask us if she drools, you cannot have her.)

Belle is fully vetted (including a dental), multi-dog friendly, cat friendly, children friendly (squawking ages included), potty trained, knows basic commands, and swears she comes with keys to a new Lexus. She has all but one flaw…kennel training. While she has never tries to escape the kennel, she has no issues showcasing her distain through vocal outbursts. These may or may not last 30+ minutes and have permanently broken our Furbo alerts. Her complaints are long, low, and passionate howls. Due in part to their low octave, they are never heard outside the house or bother the neighbors, but nonetheless, can be a turn off to certain adopters.

Belle is low energy, likes food, and seems to prefer the company of men. She spends the majority of her day cuddling with chihuahuas, chewing bones, and gazing into foster dad’s eyes and making foster mom jealous. She would do best in a home that is with her often, obsessively dotes upon her, and one with a fenced backyard. If this is you, please apply at www.bounceanimalrescue.org.

Thank you and Happy Holidays!

Honestly, it doesn’t really matter what we say i

Honestly, it doesn’t really matter what we say in this post. If a picture says a thousand words, this picture says we’re stabbing our eyes out as hundreds of applications pour in. We’ll get to the point and keep it brief.

This is Phil. Or maybe Lil? (Yes, there are two, and they are identical. Being of differing genders will be our only saving grace of not mixing them up during adopter hand off.) They’re 14 weeks old, of poodle lineage, and will be adoptable come Friday.

Where they lack in potty training and basic commands, they make up in curls and puppy breath. Before you ask, no, we cannot guarantee they are hypoallergenic. (This word makes us stab out our eyes twice, as we very rarely know our animals’ full lineage.) They will likely not exceed 10-12lbs and are cat, kid, and dog friendly. Finally, we cannot confirm they know how to walk, as they have been consistently carried the last two weeks in our care.

While we are not currently accepting hold requests for either puppy, you can submit your application ahead of time at www.bounceanimalrescue.org. (We will accept hold requests when they hit our website.)

OR better your chances in line by doing the following:
1. Consider dropping some dog collars in your shopping chart. We are running very, very, very low. Our Amazon Smiles list can be found here: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/14N1WSW7PMN4X?ref_=wl_share.

Good evening friends & followers. (We apologize fo

Good evening friends & followers. (We apologize for the late arrival of this post. The resident cat’s nails were in need of a long overdue trim, and much to our surprise, it was as dangerous and time consuming as originally planned.) If you religiously follow Bounce, you’ll already know this bloke. This is Gunner, a 2-year-old, 70lb German shepherd mix.

Because he’s been with us since the beginning of June, we can’t sugar coat the facts. Gunner is a badass. He doesn’t lock the doors at night. He eats raw cookie dough. He stretches his lunch hour to 1 hour and 5 minutes. He can’t stop, he won’t stop.

Gunner is high energy. A lot of people think they want a high energy dog (“I’ll get into running” or “This dog will help me lose weight”), but if you answer ‘A’ to the following question, Gunner is not for you:
Question: What is your ideal Sunday morning?
Answer: A. Drink mimosas. B. Hike a 14er.

In other words, Gunner is a member of ‘Jackass”. He has no problem showing off his unbelievable athleticism, and has no problem defying natural and physical laws of nature. He is beloved, quirky, wild, and needs a home that can keep up.

Gunner is very dog friendly and would love another lively companion to romp around with. While Gunner is like melted butter with humans, he would likely do best in a home without young children as his gazelle leaps don’t always match up with crawling toddlers. Gunner has had no issues with the resident cat, but again, she was overdue for a serious nail trim, so to be continued.

To apply for this energizer bunny, please visit www.bounceanimalrescue.org. Are you a mimosa person but want to give Gunner some love? Add some dog walking aids to your cart. (Gunner’s zest for life is best harnessed when his human’s arm can remain in their socket.)

Thank you and Happy Holidays!

Meet Max Muenster, i.e. David Hasselhoff’s doppe

Meet Max Muenster, i.e. David Hasselhoff’s doppelgänger (circa 1990s). Can you help us find a home for this 108lb hunky rottweiler mix this holiday season?

Max’s story is long and sad, so we’ll try to give the abbreviated version. He came from Hobbs, New Mexico and lived his entire life on a chain. Through some grace of a higher power, his owner decided to give him up to rescue. After a month of boarding, we couldn’t stand to see him on the transfer request list any longer and up he came. Sadly, due to unforeseen events, his Colorado foster home fell through and we had check him into boarding yet again.

Mind you, we LOVE this boarding facility (to be more specific and plug the remarkable staff and owners: Happy Tails Dog Ranch). However, this is a bandaid fix and Max deserves table scraps and couches. Happy Tails was able to bring us great insight in that Max adores other other dogs (all sizes, ages, and personality types) and can be placed in any play group. The staff also said he has excellent manners, is relatively mellow, prefers hanging with the shift lead handler, and can make the world disappear when he gazes into your eyes. (Again, he channels Hasselhoff.)

Max would do best in a home where he is rarely left alone (he’s done his time), has a fenced backyard, and has children (he can’t get enough of them). Max would also do best in a home with 13 oversized dog beds and hourly access to treats. To give Max Muenster a home, apply at www.bounceanimalrescue.org.

While you’re still figuring out how to smuggle a 110lb dog into your home, give Max a blanket to cuddle with. Yes, there is a direct correlation of blankets to love. https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/14N1WSW7PMN4X?ref_=wl_share.

Thank you and Happy Holidays!

To be completely honest, it’s hard writing featu

To be completely honest, it’s hard writing features on felines. Typically, their biggest joys in life are walking on your keyboard, randomly jumping out of your laundry basket to attack your legs, and knocking things off your desk. While this may be endearing qualities in some homes, other homes don’t enjoy having the Christmas tree climbed upon 19x a day.

Cat people, don’t ever say we don’t love you. Meet Luna, a 2 year old, calico. She’s a bit bashful when first meeting people but opens up quickly and wants nothing more than to be the highest ranking socialite of the room. She is cat, dog, and children friendly. (You read that correctly.) Because she is as wonderful as clean bedsheets, she needs to be an indoor cat only.

For the 12th Day of Christmas, we are asking for cat toys. Help make happy cats happier with the gift of a feather wand or pompom balls. You can view our list at https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/14N1WSW7PMN4X?ref_=wl_share.

Thank you and Happy Holidays!
