Interested in adopting a pet — or just taking a peek at some lovable pups? There are heaps of great dogs up for adoption at animal shelters in and around Aurora.

Animal shelters and pet rescue groups work hard to care for unhoused pets and connect them to loving homes. Hoodline used data from Petfinder to power this roundup of dogs currently available for adoption.

(Details like pet availability, training, vaccinations and other features are based on data provided by Petfinder and may be subject to change; contact the shelter for the latest information.)


Nikki, bloodhound

Nikki is an endearing female bloodhound dog being kept at My Fairy Dawg Mother Rescue, Inc.

Nikki is the life of the party — she gets along swimmingly with other dogs, and doesn't mind children. Rest assured: She has mastered her house-training etiquette, and she's already spayed and vaccinated.

Mia, retriever mix

Mia is a darling female retriever mix currently housed at Demi's Animal Rescue.

Mia loves spending time around other dogs, cats and children. She is spayed, and she has had all her shots.

From Mia's current caretaker:

Mia is a total sweetheart. She loves her toys and pets. She gets excited when meeting a new person and will jump a bit, but easily told no. She knows sit, stay and paw. Mia would love to find a home with her best friend, Luna.

Smoke, pit bull terrier mix

Smoke is a handsome male pit bull terrier mix staying at Animal Rescue of the Rockies.

Smoke is well-behaved around other dogs and children. Don't worry: He has already been house-trained, vaccinated and neutered.

Notes from Smoke's caretakers:

Sweet, gentle and social Smoke is happiest being where his fosters are, following after them to ensure that he's not missing one moment of the pets and cuddles he craves. He also loves running round the backyard of his foster home. Quiet and loving, he's honing his manners, and knows to sit and wait before the all right command releases him to eat. Now, this paw-fect companion is on the hunt for the paw-fect home, perhaps with another playful dog, and attentive adopters to complete his education while ensuring he's well-loved and well-exercised, always.
