Life is Better Rescue is a foster based organization. Although this means that we have very little overhead costs, it also means that we can only show our animals by appointment. It also makes it difficult to show multiple animals at a single location, other than a litter or as animals that are being fostered in the same area.

Our experience has taught us that animals adopted together are generally more difficult to train well and have a harder time bonding with the new family, so we do not adopt multiple littermates (either cat or dog) unless there are special circumstances. We don't mind setting up an adoption for another animal at a later date, but we will generally only send one animal home at a time.

We do not have the capability to ship our animals.

Please note the best way to contact us is via e-mail. If you are interested in adopting an animal from Life is Better Rescue, please submit a completed adoption application form. We are unable to evaluate your adoption request unless this form has been submitted to us. Completion of the application does not guarantee adoption of an animal from Life is Better Rescue.

Zsa Zsa Zsa Zsa Zsa Zsa
Zsa Zsa is a 4 year old poodle mix (possibly shih tzu) that was saved from the municipal shelter. She came in so matted at first they weren't even sure what sex she was. After a bath and a good shave she is a much happier lady, but was still finding the shelter stressful. They reached out and we happily got her out when it seemed like with a change of scenery she would do just fine. Zsa Zsa is spayed, vaccinated, is microchipped and seems to get along fine with other dogs and cats. We are still determining some things - like if she's fully housetrained, but she is really a love that would enjoy a quiet home with cuddles on the couch. This is a great apartment or town home animal and would be an awesome companion for someone looking for a dog that was low key. She is non-shedding and ready for a home to call her own. Zsa Zsa is $250 to adopt.

Molly Molly Molly
Molly is a 9 year old bulldog/boxer mix that came from a shelter in southern Colorado. She is as sweet as they come and would really love to spend her golden years with a family that will love her as much as she will adore them. She is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, has had recent bloodwork just to make sure everything is looking good for a gal her age, and has been dewormed. She likes other dogs (although can be possessive of her people if she thinks a dog is being too rowdy) and mostly ignores cats. She is house and crate trained, and although considered a senior, we do believe she still has a LOT of wonderful life left to give. Could she be a part of something special for you? Molly is $200 to adopt.

Nena Nena Nena
Nena is a 15 year old Chihuahua mix that has the personality and heart of a big dog! Nena loves making new friends and steals the heart of everyone she meets. She is potty trained, house trained, and very mild mannered. Nena enjoys slow-paced daily walks and playing with her toys. We can't believe how someone could want to euthanize this little doll face simply because they no longer felt like caring for a pet. We are very grateful the vet refused - and Nena is grateful too! Nena is up to date on all vet care, including a full blood workup and full dental. Nena is in a foster home with 2 cats but ideally would like to be the only dog. She is ok to have visits with dogs who are submissive and low key but not a fan of dogs who are high energy or dominant. If you are looking for a loyal, loving, and easy to care for senior companion - look no further!! Nena is sure to fill your days with joy and love! Nena is $200 to adopt.
