Blanket Donations from AutoNation Subaru Arapahoe - Paige D
AutoNation Subaru Arapahoe came by recently to bless us with an incredibly generous donation of hundreds of blankets for our patients! It's a life saver no matter what the weather might seem like outside, cause everyone knows how cold hospital rooms can be. Thank you so much to AutoNation Subaru Arapahoe for this awesome donation. We can't adequately put into words how much it means!
Denver Rescue Mission - Blake N
Autonation Subaru Arapahoe has been instrumental in helping us serve the Denver community through their time and donations, and we are very grateful for our continued partnership!
My Subaru WRX - natalia m
Coming from Florida I knew I needed a Subaru for the snow in Colorado and my WRX has been an actual life saver. Between the eyesight pre-collision braking and the incredible all wheel drive system, it has saved me from countless accidents on my work commute.
FINN FINDS HIS FOREVER FAMILY! - Kelley L
Through our partnership with Autonation Subaru Arapahoe in Centennial, CO, 2 Blondes All Breed Rescue hosted a meet and greet event on 10/1/2022, complete with some wonderful door prizes (graciously provided by Autonation Subaru Arapahoe)! During this event, we made several introductions that resulted in some amazing adoptions, not the least of which was Finn, a Subaru Underdog! Thanks to Matt Smith and his staff at Autonation Subaru Arapahoe, a combined 70 dogs were placed into loving and permanent homes during the month of October! Important to highlight were the SUBARU UNDERDOGS, which resulted in the adoption of SEVEN senior pets, TWO deaf pets and ONE amputee superstar! FINN FINDS HIS FOREVER FAMILY! As you may have seen from my profile, I am completely deaf. My foster mom had never had a deaf pup before, but she's learned that there are some easy adjustments to make to accommodate my special needs. So don't let that deter you! Wanna know some of the benefits of a deaf pup? I'm not scared of fireworks, the vacuum cleaner, and I don't bark back at other barking dogs because I can't hear them! I have also started to work with the help of the trainers provided by 2 Blondes All Breed Rescue to learn hand signals so that my humans can communicate with me. My foster mom says I'm a very smart boy and I will pick them up quickly! I am housetrained and sleep through the night in my crate without making a peep! I actually really love my crate and go in all by myself with no issues at all! This weird activity of walking on a leash is new to me, but I am very food motivated and eager to please and I'm starting to get the hang of it! I have really enjoyed meeting new people and other pups! I absolutely LOVE to play with toys. I would probably do best in a home with at least one other dog, as I am very dog-friendly, love to play, and would thrive with another pup to show me the ropes. Enter the Autonation Subaru Arapahoe meet and greet event and a wonderful couple that had unfortunately recently lost their pup. They knew that they had a loving home and open bed for a friendly pup in need and were immediately smitten with sweet Finn! Finn was formally adopted ONE WEEK after the Autonation Subaru Arapahoe Event! He is currently attending the Prison-Trained K9 Program (to fully learn sign language) to be the best pup he can for his new and wonderful family! He is scheduled to graduate on 11/23 and is expected to do so with honors!
My Subaru Crosstreks - David R
AutoNation has treated our family well. Subaru has our loyalty and the engineering saved our daughter Ella’s life on 11/21/21. She was in a terrible roll over accident after hitting a patch of black ice late at night. She hit a telephone pole and the car rolled over. She was trapped inside and extracted herself out of the vehicle. To our amazement, she walked away from the accident with only a bruised hand. The STARLINK called emergency services and the fire department put out the fire in the engine bay. It’s truly a miracle she is alive and well. Attached is the picture after the collision.
Our Boy Winston - James A
Subaru has five Love Promise programs that help in so many ways. On October of 2021, AutoNation Subaru along side with 2 Blondes All Breed Dog Rescue, sponsored a” Subaru Love Dogs” adoption day. The store set up an area where people could come in and see almost 100 different dogs looking for a new home. There were so many puppies and smiles in the store that day, it was incredible. Sales people, customers and people that just came in for the dogs were all talking and sharing stories and petting dogs. As I sat at my desk and worked I watched and noticed this one particular dog about two years old sitting and watching, so well behaved, listening to his fosters every command. Winston is a 75 lb male Shepard Mix that was laying off to the side of all the action, enjoying the frenzy. I watched him as dogs and people walked by just wondering if someone was going to pet him, but as we all could imagine the puppies were the stars of the show, heck even I had a puppy sitting on my desk for a little while. The day went on and I couldn’t help falling more intrigued with Winston, his behavior was so calm and relaxed, with a big smile as he laid there panting and watching. I approached his foster and started to ask questions. Winston had been with her for a few weeks now and was in a K-9 Companion Program that is run through one of the States Jails, in which a prisoner keeps the dog for about 4 weeks and works with them and train them, our trainers name was Mark Whitaker and not only did he train Winston but he kept a journal which he gave to us after we adopted him. Winston went through this program and was now well versed in many commands and actions. It didn’t take long and I was hooked, the only problem was I already had two dogs and a house full of kids, my wife would never go for it. I was wrong, all it took was one visit a week later and the whole family fell in love with him. I have worked with Subaru for 12 years and have adopted three dogs from 2 Blonds All Breed Dog Rescue in that time frame. Subaru’s Love programs open up so many opportunities in a lot of different avenues and I am so excited to be able to not only participate, but also benefit from them. James Azuero
Many Thanks for Continued Support - Blake N
I wanted to say THANK YOU again for another amazingly generous donation to Denver Rescue Mission. In the month of November, Subaru and AutoNation Subaru Arapahoe donated over 800 blankets to support the homeless population in the greater Denver area. It means the world that AutoNation and the Subaru organization continues to not only make such an amazing impact throughout our community and nation, but also for their impact throughout DRM. Its such a blessing and these blankets will be such an aspect of joy for those we serve.
Exceptional Service and Dream Car - Justin M
I started my vehicle hunt set out to buy a truck. After comparing vehicles for price, safety and features I kept landing on a Subaru. We started checking the website and found the 2021 Subaru Outback had everything we were looking for. I started a web inquiry and was contacted within minutes of submitting. We set an appointment and met with our sales person Austin. He was extremely helpful and knew everything about his brand. The sales process was quick and painless. We closed the deal with Alejandra. She provides excellent customer service and really knows her stuff!! We now are proud owners of our first Subaru and loving every mile down the road. Thank you for such great service and building and exceptional vehicle. We will be Subaru owners for life.
Changing Lives throughout a challenging Year - Blake N
Throughout one of the most challenging years our community has faced, the partnership with Subaru has truly invested in a growing need and allowed Denver Rescue Mission to truly make a lasting impact. Lives like Marvin's have received the opportunity to experience hope and dignity, moving forward through partnerships, and stepping back into society. This need is great, yet Denver Rescue Mission was able to meet and support all those who came through our doors through this amazing partnership. Thank you for ensuring that we can see lasting change every day. Thanks to Subaru, and the Share the Love campaign, love impacted thousands of people every day.
Training Seminar - 2 Blondes All Breed Rescue - Rod B
In October, AutoNation Subaru of Hunt Valley hosted us at their dealership for a 5 hour training seminar. We were able to bring Duc, a professional dog whisperer from Texas based company Fatheads and Furballs, to the event that worked with 30 dog foster parents onsite at the dealership. When these animals are transferred from the shelter, many of them have behavioral problems that cause them to be not adoptable. Duc gave great tips on how to bring these dogs into the foster households and integrate them into an environment with manners and respect. 2 Blondes All Breed Rescue has been in operation since 2015, during which time we have rescued, fostered and adopted over 7,700 animals into loving homes. We generally serve the Metropolitan areas of Denver, Colorado Springs and Ft. Collins. Due to our reliance on established veterinary relationships, we do not adopt puppies outside of these general service areas, nor do we facilitate out of state adoptions.
