Colorado Shelter Dogs Take Comfort in Donated Blankets as They Wait for Forever Homes
Andrea Powell
Shelters can be a stressful place for dogs due to the loud noises, unfamiliar people, and isolation. Read how your donations are providing comfort and security to shelter dogs in Colorado at Humane Society of the Pikes Peak Region.
The shelter received soft blankets and immediately put them in kennels. Meet three dogs who are grateful for the snuggly blankets.
Miley Cyrus

This sweet pup arrived as a stray and was very nervous and afraid. Her caretakers shared, "With behavior support and a new blanket to keep her comfy and secure, she blossomed into a happy, social girl who no longer hid at the back of her kennel."

Fearne
Fearne prefers a calm and quiet environment. She was adopted by a family with small children but was returned when she became stressed by the children.

She is relaxing on her donated blanket, which is providing both comfort and security while she waits for a perfect match.

This energetic pup loves to play and do zoomies in the yard. He loves going for walks and meeting new people. He is always up for an adventure but loves to snuggle into his blanket after a long day of playing.
All the animals and staff are grateful for the donations that are making a difference in the lives of shelter pets.
The shelter said, "We are tremendously thankful and grateful for this incredible donation from our friends at TheAnimalRescueSite.com."

Help spoil more shelter animals while they wait to be adopted by purchasing a toy, blanket, treats, or one of each.
