Cooper's Story...
Cooper is a stunningly handsome Belgian Malinois mix! He was born in August 2011 and is about 55 lbs. His family decided he was too rough with their older dog and decided they didn't want him anymore. Being a young, strong boy, Cooper just likes to play rough. He would do best in a home with another dog matched to his age, size and energy level, or as an only dog in a active household. Cooper would be a great jogging/hiking buddy. He likes to run around, so a yard is a must for this guy. Cooper is crate-trained and house-broken. He is good with children. He is affectionate, but not overly needy. He will be a wonderful, loyal companion! Cooper's adoption fee is $150 and that includes neuter, microchip, DAPP vaccination. If you are interested in meeting Cooper, please contact Delon.Washo@asu.edu or 602-295-4518.

About Our Rescue Group...
AZ Prussian Snailhound Dog Rescue is a 501c3 non-profit organization that is committed to providing rescue and safe-haven for dogs in need. Most of the dogs we rescue are of mixed breeds. When we are out with our dogs and people ask, "What kind of dog is that?", my husband replies by saying, "It is a rare Prussian Snailhound. They are popular in Europe." Each Prussian Snailhound is unique and deserves a loving home! Please open your heart and your home to a rescue dog!

Our major focus is the rescue of stray dogs from the Ft. McDowell Indian Reservation. Since July 2009 we have worked with other groups to rescue over 300 dogs and puppies. These are amazingly sweet dogs that have had to live off of the land and brave extreme heat, cold, rain, drought, coyotes, rattlesnakes, hunger, traffic and people who try to harm them. They deserve to have a proper home. This started out as a mission to save about 30 dogs who hung out behind the casino, as the casino managers saw them as a nuisance and were threatening to poison or shoot the dogs. We ended up saving way more dogs as we became aware that the problem extended far beyond the casino. Some of the adult dogs are extremely fearful of humans at first and require extensive rehabilitation in order to learn how to trust and become a member of the family. Once they realize how good home life is, they will be your best friend for life!

In addition to the rescue and rehabilitation of dogs from the Ft. McDowell Indian Reservation, it is our goal to work closely with the tribe to educate people who live on the Reservation about spay/neuter and to facilitate a low cost spay/neuter program. So far in 2011, 148 pets have been spayed/neutered on the Reservation!

Why Adoption is a Great Option

Cooper, a Phoenix Belgian Malinois/Labrador Retriever dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Belgian Malinois/Labrador Retriever for sale in Phoenix, or seeking a Belgian Malinois/Labrador Retriever dog from a breeder in Phoenix.

  1. Rescues and shelter volunteers in Phoenix already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
  2. On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Phoenix breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
  3. You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Belgian Malinois/Labrador Retriever breeders who help with Belgian Malinois/Labrador Retriever rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Phoenix paves the way for another one to be saved.
