My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

OKAY, seriously folks! People keep stopping to ask about my beautiful eyes....I have one beautiful blue eye and one eye half brown and half blue.....against a shiny black coat, I am a conversation starter!

I was born into a rural part of Arizona where there were too many dogs to care for so Help A Dog Smile stepped up to help me, my mom and my brothers and sisters move to the big city! I have loads of energy and love, love, love to chew on super hard dog bones! Although I am a big chewer, my foster family has done very well teaching me what is for dogs and what is for people. I even left all of the Christmas tree decorations, décor and presents right where my foster mommy put them!!! I'm loving all my new bones and my dog friends who I wrestle and play with all day long.

I have learned all sorts of things living with my foster family such as how to walk on a leash, Sit, Stay, Off (I do love to jump on everything but am very polite about it), Drop It and Leave it. I am kennel trained, potty trained, wonderful but energetic with other dogs, semi nervous of new people at first but I do warm up fast with encouragement!

If you are interested in making me a permanent member of your family, please fill out our online application: https://www.helpadogsmile.org/adoption-application/ . My adoption fee is $350.

*Please note that the application is not a commitment to adopt–it is a tool used to help determine if a dog and applicant would make a good match. Applications are forwarded to the foster family for review and follow-up.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Adoption is a lifetime commitment. After an application and a verbal interview is completed and it is determined that the adoption is a compatible match, a contract is signed with specific guidelines. An adoption fee (usually between $250-$500) to help off-set medical, feeding and Rescue costs is collected. The contract states that at any time the adoption does not work out, the dog is to be returned to our Rescue group for alternate placement. The dog is not to be 'given away' or 'rehomed' or 'taken to the pound'. If there are other dogs in the home, they must meet prior to adoption. All family members in the household have to agree to the adoption. No dog is to be adopted as a 'gift'. No out of state adoptions.
