My story

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

Meet Terry the lover girl, an energetic little lowrider! She is a true mix try terrier, poodle, something with short legs, some energy and a whole lot of cuddles! At 2-years-old  she has a lot of love to give! 

Background: Terry was found as a stray wandering in a park just looking for a bite to eat. She was so afraid of new people but a bit of food and she was your new best friend.

Personality: Terry is an energetic young girl who would love an active home. I think she would be a great only dog as she adores attention. She seems to love other dogs and a playmate her age and weight would also be great! She is affectionate and eager to please. Weighing in at almost 35 lbs doesn’t stop her from being a lap dog. She adores people.

Health: Terry is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. 

Training: Terry is housebroken, crate-trained, and walks pretty well on a leash.

Ideal Home: This  gal is happiest simply being near her people, especially if snuggles are involved. Terry would thrive in almost any loving home where companionship and affection are part of daily life.  

Adoption Requirements: Terry’s 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.
