A Little Bit About Me...
Hello everyone! My name is Stella and I'm a happy go lucky gal who is always SUPER excited to play with you. I am extremely energetic, and you'll usually find me running laps around the play yard or with my nose to the ground smelling everything. I'm a hunting dog breed with a very strong working drive so I'm always ready to go! I'm looking for someone who is able to keep up with me so you better be ready to move too!

The Highlights...
~I need multiple long walks a day and lots of play time!
~I am not fit to live in an apartment.
~I get along well with dogs of all sizes and play styles but I can be a little much with the smaller guys, so keep an eye on me.

My Perfect Home Would Include...
~Someone who has experience working with high drive dogs or working dogs, and who will celebrate my energy and abilities rather than trying to calm me down.
~I need adventure! My future family should be the outdoorsy type, who love going hiking and/or camping regularly, and have the time to help me be my best self.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Please be advised we only adopt to AZ residents. We make a commitment to all of our animals. So while we appreciate your interest, we ask that you be a local resident to adopt. We do not always know the full background of each animal and sometimes personalities are not fully shown until a few days in the home. If for whatever reason you cannot keep the animal, we appreciate the animal being returned to our facility. It is costly and time consuming to return an animal from out of state. Please check your local animal shelter to find a forever friend near your area.
We do have adoption fees that are reflective to our adoptable cats and dogs. They will slightly vary depending on the cat or dog. However most of the adoptable pets have the same adoptable fee. We ask that any prospective adopter to come to our location and complete an adoption application. This will be reviewed by a qualified adoption counselor who will sit and visit to interview the adopter on what they are looking for to place the adoptable pet in a forever home. Once approved for adoption, there is paperwork to complete and the adoptable cat or dog will be able to go home that day

More about this shelter

Sun Valley Animal Shelter, Inc., is an Arizona nonprofit corporation with 501(c)3 status which operates a No-Kill shelter in Glendale, Arizona, generally serving the western portion of the Phoenix metropolitan area. The organization was founded in 1991 by a group of Sun City area residents as a foster-based program to provide adoption opportunities for homeless and abandoned dogs and cats. The current facility was built in 1995 and can house 100+ dogs and 100+ cats. The organization receives no government funding and is supported by income from our thrift store profits, adoption fees, membership dues, donations and bequests. We recently received a grant to assist in the construction of a new medical/surgical center at the facility.

The animals taken into our care are housed in a clean, secure environment and are spayed/neutered, microchipped, given all necessary shots and a physical exam. Dedicated volunteers are invaluable in assisting with the daily care and nurturing of our dogs and cats prior to finding a loving home. We are proud to note that in the last several years we have increased adoptions from approximately 300 animals per year to over 1000 animals per year.
