Story
Welcome Sweet Oscar! Oscar is a four-month-old, 9-pound Border Terrier mix puppy who was recently rescued as a stray. He is full of puppy energy and loves attention, toys, and food. Oscar is very affectionate and enjoys being a lap companion. He is great at entertaining himself with toys and has learned to be respectful around older dogs. Oscar is housetrained and sleeps in a dog bed at night. He is crated when his foster mom runs errands but, as a puppy, he should not be crated all day. We are looking for a forever home where someone is home often and can dedicate time to continue his socialization, basic obedience training, and active play. Oscar is neutered, microchipped, and up-to-date on vaccinations. His adoption fee is $350, which helps cover medical expenses for the rescue. If you are looking for an adorable and sweet puppy companion, please complete our online application at:  https://www.helpadogsmile.org/adoption-application/ .  A volunteer coordinator will contact you after reviewing your submission . *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 .  December 2, 2025, 9:14 pm

Story
LITTLE MAX is a sweet sensitive little guy that is looking for his forever human best friend. He gets along well with other dogs but would not do well in a home with a very dominate dog as he would be afraid of them. Like many of our rescue dogs, we are not sure how well housetrained LITTLE Max is. But with gentle persuasion, some consistency, structure and praise he should be easy to train. LITTLE Max is a coated dog (hair grows continuously) and will need professional grooming every 6-8 weeks. Max’s adoption fee is $300 This fee includes at least one health exam at our veterinarian while in our care, altering (spay/neuter), all vaccinations including rabies (as permitted by age), a pre-adoption professional grooming and a microchip with lifetime membership that never will cost you a fee. All dogs also leave with a new collar and or harness and leash as well as a gift bag which includes among other things, a starter bag of the quality kibble that is being fed at the rescue. Adoption fees also allow us the ability to put funds towards the next homeless or unwanted dog in need of rescue! If you would like to be considered to for this adoption or any of our amazing rescues, please fill out the application with the help of this link. https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/AZST/Dog. We review each application carefully. Please understand that sometimes we get numerous applications for specific dogs and as a volunteer-based rescue, we do not always have the time to respond to each one. We do our best to choose the most suitable home for each dog based on their specific personality and needs. Please note you MAY NOT be contacted for up to 10 days to schedule a meet and greet if your family is the most suitable for this rescue dog. Regrettably, we do not have the manpower currently to contact all applicants. We keep ALL applications in our database so please feel free to contact us when you see another dog of interest. We appreciate all applicants and do our best to pair every dog and family for a successful and happy life.
