Story
Zeus is a loving Pitbull Terrier with a heart as big as his name. He is a true gentle giant—sweet, calm, and incredibly affectionate. Zeus adores people and is especially wonderful with children. He gets along great with other dogs and even cats, though he can be a bit timid around much larger dogs and prefers gentle companions. Zeus has hip dysplasia and dermatitis, conditions that require ongoing care, but they do not define him. He handles everything with quiet strength and grace and still enjoys life, cuddles, and quality time with his people. With the right home, Zeus will thrive and return that love tenfold.He would do best with someone patient and kind who understands his medical needs and is willing to give him the comfort and stability he deserves. .This decision comes from a place of deep love. Due to an upcoming move out of state, I am heartbroken that I cannot take Zeus with me. If you’re looking for a devoted, gentle, and soulful companion, Zeus may be the perfect match!

Story
Roscoe is a shepherd mix adopted from Maricopa County Animal Care & Control in May after being found as a stray. He is estimated to be about 4 years old, weighs approximately 65 lbs, and is neutered, microchipped, fully vaccinated, and house trained. He is familiar with using a dog door. Since his adoption, Roscoe has been very affectionate and people-oriented. I currently work from home, and he spends much of his day laying quietly near my feet, content to be close to his person. He enjoys companionship and does well in a home environment. Roscoe has done very well with other dogs and has had positive interactions without issue. He has also been around young children (under the age of 3) and has handled those interactions appropriately.

This is Dozer, he is going to be 2 this July. He is a frenchie, boxer, chocolate lab mix. He is great with kids, loves to play tag and go on walks, but will also sit up on the couch or bed with you and relax. He is very quiet, knows commands such as sit, potty, kennel, eat, walk, and come. We are having a baby in the summer and just won’t have the time to take care of him. He will come with an auto feeder, small bed and crate, water dispenser and some chew toys.

Corgi Chihuahua

Size
(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Not good with kids, Needs experienced adopter, House-trained, Spayed or Neutered, Shots are up-to-date,
Story
Jackson is a very sweet little guy. I rescued him 3 years ago. He had been on the street for quite a time so he is very skittish and needs to smell someone new to the house. He is protective but I have 3 young granddaughters and he growls at them and that is just not a risk I would ever take. He would do best in a quiet home with someone to love him and in a situation with no children.

Story
stormy is a friendly, fun-loving dog. She enjoys sitting with her owner and loves to be petted. She loves to go on walks, play fetch, and loves attention ! We adopted her from Maricopa in August. They figure her to be born in May. I have 2 small dogs and Stormy can get guard aggressive sometimes with toys and food. Even though she mostly gets along with the dogs, I would recommend her be only dog with active owners or someone who is more experienced than me. She is sweet, plays a lot. Loves to snuggle when she gets tired. Loves kisses. Loves ice! And frozen blueberries. She has been around kids, never aggressive but lacks boundaries. She needs someone with even more time and attention we can give.
