Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Misty! Misty is a 2 year old, 10 pound Chihuahua who joined us recently when her owner could no longer care for her. She's a sweet girl who can be a little shy at first, but she is very affectionate, gentle, enjoys being a lap dog, and loves to give kisses! She is housetrained, crate trained, has good leash manners, and enjoys the company of other dogs! She is an excellent passenger on car rides, and enjoys playing fetch with stuffed animals. She does have canine foster siblings and believes everyone's food is for sharing, so it would be best to separate her from other dogs at feeding time. Misty is living in a foster home and is available on Saturdays until adopted!
No appointments are necessary and you can come and see us any time we are open. Please go to our website (www.azfriends.org) to fill out a consultation form then come and see us! We do require any family interested in meeting our dogs or cats to fill out a consultation form – this form helps us determine if the dog/cat and the home are a good match, since it is so easy to fall in love with a photo, without knowing the personality of the dog. Once you have filled out the online Adoption Consultation Form, just come in and see us (or come and see us and fill out the consultation form upon arrival)!
Please note that ALL dogs and cats are available to the first home that meets the dog or cat that we feel is a good match. In order to help make the best match, we do want all family members (dogs and humans) to meet any potential new family member.
Our adoption center hours are: Closed Sunday/Monday; Tuesday 10a-2p, Wednesday 3p-7p, Thursday 3p-7p, Friday 10a-2p, Saturday 10a-4p. We are located at 952 W Melody Avenue in Gilbert (zip code 85233).All animals are altered, vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed, licensed (dogs). Cats tested for FELV/FIV. Dogs tested for Heartworm. All animals are available to the first family that is a good match, and if we have more than one animal who is a good match, there will be a lottery for all matches. Note that families must have come in to our adoption center and spoken with an adoption counselor prior to any lottery (when we have lotteries, they usually occur on Saturday mornings).

All potential adoptive homes must complete the adoption consultation form. All adoptive parents must agree to terms of the adoption contract which will be reviewed at the time of adoption. Dog adoptions start at $150.00 and cat adoptions start at $95.00. All animals have been spayed or neutered, vaccinated, and microchipped. Cats have also been FeLV/FIV tested. Dogs are also licensed per county law.
Many of our dogs are adopted very quickly, so if you see someone you are interested in, come on down - don't wait for an email response! Since an animal's personality is so much more than a photo, we prefer to give detailed info in person. Note that for any dog or cat that will have more than one family interested when they are ready for adoption, we will hold a lottery BUT only those who have spoken with an adoption counselor prior (to ensure a good match for the animal and the family) will be included in the lottery.

We are closed Sunday and Monday. If you see a dog or cat you are interested in, come and talk with one of our adoption counselors. If you choose to email, please allow 24-48 hours for a response as we are all volunteers. Often the animals in our care are adopted quickly, so we would recommend saving time (and possibly missing out) and coming to our adoption center vs. waiting for a response. Unless a family has spoken with an adoption counselor, there isn't much different info that would be shared compared to what is on our website. Plus, we'd love to meet you!
