Welcome to Pawsitive Solutions
Pawsitive Solutions was founded by The Patterson Family of Brighton, Colorado to provide temporary arrangements for pet owners in the unfortunate situations of foreclosure, domestic violence, personal health care issues, or any other reason affecting a pet owner's ability to keep and care for their pets.
The story of Pawsitive Solutions begins when Bill Patterson returned from serving in the National Guard in Iraq. Tough economic times hit the family hard. Their home went into foreclosure and soon they found that they could not longer afford to care for their dogs, Bradley and Rufus.
Bradley and Rufus found temporary homes with a Patterson neighbor and slowly the Pattersons are getting back on track. Now, they want to Pay it Forward to families in financial crisis by working with shelters such as The Max Fund, and coordinating foster pet care for families in need.
By matching volunteer foster pet caregivers and working closely with local pet shelters, Pawsitive Solutions provides pet owners who are no longer able to provide the basic necessities for their pets with alternative solutions and allowing pet owners to avoid the difficult decision of surrendering or euthanizing their pet during temporary times of crisis.
We would like to express our very special thanks to CBS4's Pay it Forward Colorado project, so that we can have the opportunity to change someone else's life. Thank you!
