Story
Meet Trixie. She’s a Chihuahua/Dachshund/Poodle mix. She’s around 1 year old and weighs 9 pounds. Trixie came into rescue pregnant and ready to deliver at any time. On December 26, 2024 she had four puppies. Trixie was a wonderful mom and the puppies have since found their own homes and now it’s Trixie’s turn to find that fabulous forever family. Trixie does well with other dogs. She loves to run and play with the dogs in her foster home. At first she was nervous to meet new people but she has come very far and is willing to be around any newcomers to her house. Especially if they have treats. She is still learning about the world and working on manners but is doing fantastically. Trixie’s ideal home would be with a patient family to help her continue to blossom, to have another friendly dog, no cats, and a yard because she loves to run around. Trixie’s adoption fee is $300. She’s been spayed, has her microchip, and has all her shots including rabies and Bordetella and her license is current. Please email medicalanimalsinneed@gmail.com with any questions and if you’d like to meet sweet Trixie. or fill out my adoption application at https://medicalanimalsinneed.com/homepage/adoption-application/

Story
I rescued Bailey from Maricopa he was emaciated, with almost no hair and had 3 days to live. I took him to my vet and had a comprehensive exam done with bloodwork. He is healthy and has a lot of love to give. I have 3 other rescues - I found out my HOA allows 3 dogs and I need to find him a loving home. He gets a long great with my other little dogs. He wants all of my attention and I believe he would be best suited as a only dog - he has so much love to give ❤️.

Story
🐾 Rocky – Loyal, Loving, and Ready to Learn Age: 2 years | Breed: Pug | Sex: Neutered Male Meet Rocky, a handsome fawn pug with a sweet, mellow energy and a heart of gold. Though still young, Rocky has a gentle soul and is looking for a home where he can thrive with patience, love, and structure. He enjoys human companionship and is friendly—though sometimes a little aloof at first—with both people and other dogs. While he gets along with other dogs he would do best with his sister as his only companion. Rocky is crate trained and potty trained. He can occasionally guard toys or food around other dogs, but never with people—and only in certain situations. He just needs a home that understands how to support him with clear boundaries and positive reinforcement. Rocky is bonded with his sister, Pan Dulce, and they must be adopted together. The pair have been together since puppyhood and find comfort and confidence in each other. Total adoption fee for both is $500.

Story
🐾 Pan Dulce – Sweet Like Her Name, Silly and Snuggly Age: 2 years | Breed: Pug | Sex: Spayed Female Say hello to Pan Dulce, a playful and affectionate pug whose name says it all—she’s a little bundle of sweetness with just the right amount of sass. Pan loves attention, cuddles, and getting silly with her people. She’s tolerant when handled and enjoys playtime, belly rubs, and cozy naps. Like her brother Rocky, Pan Dulce is crate trained and potty trained, and she’s eager to keep learning. She may guard food or toys when around other dogs, but it’s occasional and manageable with supervision and guidance. We think she would do best with her brother as her only companion in the home. Pan Dulce is deeply bonded with her brother Rocky, and they are seeking a forever home together. If you're ready for twice the love, twice the personality, and double the snorts, this duo will melt your heart. Together their adoption fee is $500.

Story
Meet Chanel – A Sophisticated Lady Ready for Her Next Chapter! 📍 7 years old | Fawn Pug | 18 lbs Chanel is every bit as elegant and lovable as her name suggests. This beautiful 7-year-old pug has spent her entire life with one loving owner but is now looking for a new forever family due to big life changes in her previous home. Chanel is a sweet, affectionate, and playful companion who enjoys cuddles, belly rubs, and lounging in cozy spots. She’s a little shy at first with new people, but once she warms up, she’s incredibly friendly and will happily stick by your side. She’s crate trained, potty trained, and has wonderful indoor manners. While she hasn’t spent much time around other animals, she’s shown no signs of aggression and has preferred doing her own thing when visiting the dog park. Chanel currently isn’t spayed or up to date on vaccines, but that will be taken care of as part of her adoption through AZ Pug Party & Rescue. She’s in good health with no known medical needs, and just a touch of mild anxiety that shows up occasionally through pacing or whining — nothing a little love and routine can’t soothe. We think Chanel would thrive in a calm, loving home where she can enjoy all the attention she deserves. Whether you're looking for a loyal couch buddy or a quiet companion to share your day with, Chanel might be your perfect match. 💕 Ready to meet this classy little lady?
