My story

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

Meet Aubergine....she goes by Auby! a 2 year old Chihuahua mix who is almost 8 pounds  

Background: I am a mystery as I was found living on the streets with my sister Broccolini and next thing I was at Maricopa Animal Control and so scared. Luckily the people there saw that I was a nice girl, just terrified, so they put a plea out to rescues and presto I was soon in a warm safe home!

Personality: If you are looking for a lap dog, check out my bio... I am very sweet loving little girl that will give you so much love. I love lap time and just gazing out the window. I'm a great sleeper and will snuggle up with you on the bed! I also love to travel around in my backpack! I go everywhere with my foster mom. I can live with other dogs but really I just want to be the princess! I love my shirts and sweaters....being warm is the best!!!

Health: Auby is up to date on all shots,  she is spayed and microchipped.

Training: Auby is housetrained and will either go out when you take her out or use potty pads.

Ideal Home: My perfect, forever home would be with some one who wants to watch TV with me and let me be the center of their world! Can you commit to continuing my basic training and providing me with a lifetime home for the next 12+ years?  If so, please complete an application at the rescue's website,  www.helpadogsmile.org  and my foster family will be glad to give you a call to see if we might be a perfect match.  Thank you and woof woof! 

Adoption Requirements: Auby has an adoption fee is $350. If you live in the Phoenix metro area and think she could be the right fit for you, please complete an adoption application*: helpadogsmile.org/adoption-application 

*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.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

Adoptions can be arranged by appointment or our dogs can be met on the first Saturday of the month at Petsmart, Desert Ridge Noon to 3:00 PM.
