Strawberry Days is just around the corner! 🍓

Shelby wants to know: will you hang out with C.A.R.E. at Strawberry Days (June 19-21)?

We're looking for volunteers to help staff our booth during one of Glenwood Springs' favorite community traditions. It's a fun way to support local pets, meet fellow animal lovers, and help us connect with our community all weekend long.

We'll have raffle prizes, information about our programs & adoptable pets, and a rock painting activity for kids!

A special thank you to Alpine Bank for their continued support of C.A.R.E. and for providing their nonprofit booth space again this year. 💚

🐾 Current volunteers: sign-up under the 'Events' opportunity in Bloomerang Volunteer!
😎 New volunteers: fill out our volunteer survey to get started! (https://www.coloradoanimalrescue.org/volunteer/)

Come see us tomorrow at Petco for their Clear the Shelters adoption campaign! ❤

We plan on having some very cute little shelter pets with us, hoping to find their forever homes! 🐾👀

Dogs like Axel (blocky, big-head, black bully breeds) usually have a harder time finding homes.

But luckily, some people seek out the overlooked dogs!

Axel may be a big guy at 110lbs (weighing more than some of our staff members), but he's also known for being kind and goofy, has a blast with his big dog buddies, and will make a great couch time companion at the end of a busy day.

Let's get 4-year-old Axel back into a home where he belongs ❤

ADOPTED!

We promise, Ellie is not as grumpy as she first appears.

Our 10-year-old has quite the appetite for catnip and will perk right up, and sometimes she's up for a round with her feather wand. When the fun is over, Ellie is ready to curl up for a brushing and turn on her purr motor.

After losing her long-time home, we'd love to see another family step in and give Ellie a quiet place to land and a soft lap for snuggling. She hasn't lived with other pets before, and she may want to keep it that way (but other calm pets may be ok!).

Ellie is also part of C.A.R.E.'s Senior for Senior adoption program, connecting shelter pets with local residents and reduced adoption costs (check out the details on our website!).

Now let's get Ellie adopted 🏡🐾

Say hello to sweet Shelby! 🙂💕

This lil pup (only 40lbs) is hoping to charm her way into your heart! Pretty in pink - Shelby knows how to sit and shake, and she walks great on leash. We think she is about a year and a half old, but have no idea what breed she is - any guesses?

Shelby was transferred to C.A.R.E. from our friends at the Ute Mountain Ute animal shelter in Towac, CO. She struck a chord with our fabulous volunteer, Rik, who was signed up to assist with the transfer. Shelby reminds him of a dog he used to have - so he's chosen to promote her with a hard-earned volunteer coupon! 🎉

Interested in meeting our special girl? 🎀 Visit our booth at the Carbondale Farmer's Market tomorrow (6/3) from 10am-3pm! Shelby will be available to adopt onsite if she finds the perfect fit. 🤞

One of the kindest things we can do is plan ahead for the people and pets we love. 🐾

That's why C.A.R.E. is excited to share a free estate planning resource through our partnership with FreeWill!

This secure online tool makes it easy to create a will and document your wishes for the future, including plans for your pets and the causes that matter most to you.

As always, THANK YOU for being part of our community and helping create a brighter future for both pets and people. 🥰
