We have a large selection of dogs and some cats too that are looking for their forever home. Will you be that home for one of them? We place our companions in homes where our dogs will become part of the family, to love and be loved. Click HERE to view all of our available companions.
As we are a No-Kill Sanctuary, any animal that we receive into our program is provided a warm, friendly home where they can thrive until they are placed into their new forever home. We believe that every animal is adoptable.
Not all of the available companions are located at Mariah's Promise Sanctuary. Please note the contact information on each of the companion's Bios in order to make arrangements to meet the companion of your choice.

Love Dogs ... and Justice Too?
By Chef David
If so... there is an atrocity going on in Denver that you may want to be aware of.
You are a responsible dog owner, you get your four legged companion only the best food, exercise several times a week, they get only THE Best in treats, and you just love them like no other.
Your dog happens to be of the Pit Bull breed(s)... so Denver Municipal Animal Shelter (DMAS) knocks on your door, confiscates your family dog, and shoves a needle in its arm and puts it to death. No crime, no mauling, not even a single bark... but simply because it's a Pit Bull. Seems Fair, huh? Hardly. ~Read More~
SPECIAL THANKS!
Mariah's Promise Animal Rescue wishes to extend our deepest appreciation to Mike Phillips of Events Range Hoods, in Woodland Park, Colorado.
Thank you for everything you do for the dogs, the beautiful hoods you create to feed the hounds, all the sacrifices you have made to help the animals that have crossed our path since 1990. It could not have happened it without YOU!!!
We all love you!! ~ Toni
Who We Are
Mariah's promise is "All that we can - We will" for the animals. We are a true no-kill sanctuary, a 501(c)3 run by volunteers. Mike and Toni, the founders, have been rescuing dogs since 1990 in Texas, Missouri and now Colorado. We have yet to find an "unadoptable" dog - we assess each dog that comes to us only to understand their personality and needs, not to determine whether they live or die. Until a dog finds a new home, they have a home with us. Our desire is to give animals the time needed to find the family for them, no matter how long it takes. We take in animals that have been left injured or neglected, older dogs and those with health issues - we bring them into our home where their needs are met. They are valued and loved. Here, they have a chance to heal and learn to trust again. ~Read More About Us ~

Skylar - You Left Too Soon
"Skylar, birthdate unknown. We call his arrival at Mariah's Promise on October 3, 2009 his re-birth day.
[Click Here to read Skylar's story when he arrived here]
This adorable boy was so deep inside himself, he closed off to the rest of the world, curling himself into a tight ball on that cold steel grate at the South LA shelter. He touched some gentle hearts, was rescued and sent to a home to begin again. Skylar made slow progress, then regressed again. We were asked to take Skyler, give him another chance out here in Colorado. This shaking, troubled beauty stayed in the back of the kennel even after the door was opened when he arrived in Denver.

A Plea for Help for our Haitian Neighbors
From: The Animals Voice <4rights@animalsvoice.com

Subject: WSPA and IFAW Haiti Disaster Relief
Dear Animals Voice Supporter,
We are forwarding this email from WSPA and IFAW regarding the situation for animals in the aftermath of the earthquake in Haiti.
---
Dear Friends,
The world is responding to the disaster in Haiti, and people around the world are coming together to help in any way they can. The animal victims of this disaster will desperately need help too, and animal welfare groups are joining forces to come to their aid.
Together, the World Society for the Protection of Animals (WSPA) and the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW) will be working on the ground to help the animals in Haiti. We have developed the Animal Relief
Coalition for Haiti (ARCH) to assist in the response efforts, and all animal welfare organizations are invited to join the ARCH and direct their financial support to the coalition.
Our teams will be working out of a mobile clinic which has been donated to us by the Antigua and Barbuda Humane Society. WSPA and IFAW have pledged funds to fully outfit this mobile clinic, and it will be shipped
from Antigua to our member society, Sociedad Dominicana Para la Protección de Animales (SODOPRECA), in the Dominican Republic for them to drive across the border into Haiti.
When people join together, amazing things can happen. We're asking you to join us now and donate to help the animals of Haiti, and the thousands of other animals who will be affected by disasters to come.

Animal's Savior
By: Jim Willis
I looked at all the caged animals in the shelter...the cast-offs of human society.
I saw in their eyes love and hope, fear and dread, sadness and betrayal.
And I was angry.
"God," I said, "this is terrible! Why don't you do something?"
God was silent for a moment and then He spoke softly.
"I have done something," He replied.
"I created You."
Ed Sayres Threatens To Kill Oreo’s Law
January 14, 2010
by Nathan J. Winograd
Henry Bergh, the founder of the ASPCA, is rolling in his grave. The man currently sitting in the chair he once occupied, heading the organization he founded, is not only thwarting his dream of an organization whose mission is to save the lives of animals, he is actively undermining it. As animal lovers approached Ed Sayres, the current President of the ASPCA, to cease opposition to Oreo’s Law, pending New York State legislation named after an abused dog he ordered killed despite a rescue alternative, Sayres refused, turning his back on both the animals and their rescuers.
