Nitro's Story

Nitro! This adorable, 1.5 year old, boy with the curly Q tail is looking for a home. Nitro is 46 lbs but needs to pack on some pounds. He was found as a stray horribly matted and grossly underweight…..only 37 lbs. What a makeover he had. Nitro is now in foster care. He has springs on his feet which he uses to hop over his foster mom’s split rail fence—privacy only folks. While he doesn’t try to run away, he does like to find canine friends to play with or see where his humans are. Nitro is cat friendly. He’s very outgoing and personable to everyone he meets. He is a jumper when he greets his humans, so small or frail humans may not be a great match. Nitro is crate trained and seems well mannered in a home. He will require regular grooming and plenty of exercise.

What Our Fosters Say...

My daughter and I have been volunteering with Mile High since its beginning, mostly driving the rescue van to NM to help with transports. We connect with other rescue partners, helping these dogs get to CO and then to foster homes, vet care, and their forever homes. We get to spend time together and feel good about helping the pups.

MHCR understands the rescue is only a slice of life for a volunteer and they wholeheartedly accept anything you can offer. No matter how small you think your part is, they make sure you know you're appreciated.

I have volunteered with multiple rescues over the years. Mile High Canine Rescue is by far the best. Their communication is outstanding and other volunteers are always available to answer any questions and offer guidance.
JoAnna Chrisco
High quality, high volume spay and neuter is the best way to address the animal welfare crisis, and I’m so grateful to MHCR for sponsoring these clinics and giving me the opportunity to volunteer at them.
Kenna Uddenberg
Fostering feeds my soul. I love to see these dogs change from shelter dogs to rescued to loved and ready for their forever homes.
Elisa Thurston
It is hard to describe the joy you experience when you see a dog who has had a difficult start learn to become part of a family and see their true, happy self come alive.
Becky Gibbs
Fostering for MHCR has filled a part in my life I didn’t even realize was missing. Loving on these babies until the right family comes along is one of the most rewarding aspects of my life.
Maria Hatch
MHCR does the best job at supporting their fosters, because they foster too. They do their best to get supplies to foster homes to cut down on out-of-pocket costs for foster families. They take requests for supplies and follow through every way they can. They're always open to communication and no question is too weird, stupid, or off-the-wall.
