Pass this one along to prospective pet parents: These furry faces need homes!

According to Petfinder, there are more than 100 puppies within 10 miles of Denver that need homes. Now, we're aware that every single one of them is adorable. But we just thought we'd highlight some of these pups to give you your daily dose of cuteness overload. 

If you're thinking of adopting a puppy, we commend you, because there are plenty that need rescuing. But before you rush into an adoption, remember that a puppy is a 10-15 year commitment and a huge responsibility. Training a new puppy requires time and patience, so you'll need to make sure that a puppy is the right fit for your lifestyle. Not to mention, the first year cost of owning a dog exceeds $1,000. That said, you'll definitely be rewarded for the work you put in, with endless puppy kisses. 

Whether you're looking to adopt or just looking, we hope these furry faces brighten your day.

This Catahoula Leopard Dog mix is good in a home with other dogs or children, but not cats. She's also available through MAMCO rescue. It's easy to meet lots of puppies at once if you go to one of their adoption events.

Last but not least, meet Morpheus. This little guy is a Shepherd and Boxer mix, so expect him to grow. Also, you might have to adopt another one just so you can name it Neo. Morpheus is available for adoption through MAMCO rescue.
