Story
Snowball is an adorable 11-year-old Maltese/Terrier blend who recently returned to us after her owner could no longer care for her. This sweet senior girl is now hoping to find a loving forever home where she can enjoy comfort, companionship, and plenty of cozy nights.Since her previous adoption, Snowball had to have one of her eyes removed due to glaucoma, but that certainly hasn’t stopped her from enjoying life and soaking up love from her people. She’s a calm, well-mannered companion who enjoys simply being near her humans. In her former home, she slept on the bed at night and loved relaxing while watching TV with her family.Snowball doesn’t seem too interested in toys, but she makes up for it with her sweet personality and easygoing nature. She is housetrained and does well when left alone, making her a wonderful companion for someone looking for a gentle, low-key best friend.If you have room in your heart and home for a loving senior pup, Snowball would love to meet you.To get started in the process of meeting Snowball, please visit https://azfriends.org/testing/adopt.html to complete an adoption consultation form, and then come by the Adoption Center to meet with one of our adoption counselors.

Story
Ready for Pre- Adoption Only Hi, I'm Iris, a precious 1-year-old Maltese-Poodle mix with a fluffy white coat that's as soft as it looks! I’m a little bit shy but warm up quickly. I just raised a litter of puppies but I wasn’t really wanting to do that at my age 💕 I'm small, sweet, and ready to shower my new family with all the affection and loyalty I have to give. I'm going to be spayed soon but you can come and meet me and decide if I’m your girl! If you're looking for a gentle, cuddly companion to snuggle up with, I'd love to be yours! 🐾✨
