My story

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

Hi, I'm Marmaduke!

You would never guess that I had a rough past because I am the sweetest boy. Even though I'm a big guy, I'm a lap dog at heart and I love to snuggle up with my family! I LOVE to bounce around, go for walks and hikes, and get all the attention! I am still young so I can be pretty energetic. I do well with kids as long as they are a little bigger so I don't accidentally knock them over. I'm a quick learner and would love to learn some new tricks with you! I promise to reward you with a lifetime of love and loyalty! I would like to meet any potential furry siblings before going home. Come and meet me today! I can't wait!

No appointment necessary!

Additional adoption info

Dogs and cats available for adoption at the Arizona Animal Welfare League are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, behaviorally and medically evaluated, flea/tick preventative and 30-days free pet health insurance.

The following steps outline how the adoption process works at Arizona Animal Welfare League & SPCA.

* Bring the whole family – even the dog(s). We encourage dog-to-dog introductions as a part of the match-making process and may require it in most cases. We do not require the same introductions for cats.

* Upon arriving at the Pet Match Adoption Center, you will be greeted by our friendly staff and/or volunteers and asked to fill out a short Adopter Profile. This is not an application. It is a match-making tool used to help you find the best match for you and the adoptable animals.

* You will be introduced to the available dogs and/or cats with some tips for narrowing down your search to the most appropriate pets.

* Visitors can meet one-on-one with pets in our play yards. Dogs will be introduced, too.

* If your pet meet is a success, you will spend a few minutes completing some paperwork and learning about the many "extras" included with each adoption. then you and your new family member can go home and begin your "Happy Tails" life.

* We have a variable adoption fee policy based on an animal's age, breed, temperament, behavioral issues, and physical condition. Please feel free to contact us at 602-273-6852
