Story
Meet Perry, a professional lap warmer currently accepting applications! 🐾 This happy little 2-year-old terrier mix is sweet, snuggly, friendly, and always ready to make a new friend. He’s wonderful with dogs, cats, kids, and people…so Perry is pretty much an equal-opportunity bestie! He’s playful when it’s time for fun but perfectly content to curl up in your lap when the day calls for serious snuggling. Perry is 12lbs, doing well with potty training (using pads and an open doggy door) and is learning more every day. He’s the happiest little fellow and your hype man if you’ve had a hard day—his two legged bounce and gigantic smile are enough to cure anyone’s gloomies. If you’ve been looking to hire a personal shadow who comes with soft fluff, a wagging tail, and excellent cuddle skills, Perry is the little man for the job!

Story
Tiny little beauty on the lookout for her new bestie💕 This adorable 11lb, 2-year-old Westie mix is super sweet, playful, & affectionate. She’s happiest when she’s right beside her people, preferably on their lap. She loves kids, enjoys other dogs, and has a special talent for making you feel like the most important person in the world. We consider her a professional welcome home committee. She’s the perfect mix of fun and snuggly, always ready for a little playtime but equally happy to curl up next to you and keep you company. She’s had a blast playing with all the adult dogs in her foster home, and is always in the center of the fun. She is not sure about the babies getting too close though(7week old pups), & will give them a little warning groan. She also seems to respect the small senior dog in the home & doesn’t bother him. Peppa is doing amazing with potty training using a doggy door with the flap propped open and potty pads, and she doesn’t seem to shed. If you’re looking for a sweet little shadow with a big personality and an even bigger heart, Peppa is ready to report for cuddle duty!

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. No appointments are necessary and you can come and see us any time we are open. Please go to our website (www.azfriends.org) to fill out a consultation form then come and see us! We do require any family interested in meeting our dogs or cats to fill out a consultation form – this form helps us determine if the dog/cat and the home are a good match, since it is so easy to fall in love with a photo, without knowing the personality of the animal. Once you have filled out the online Adoption Consultation Form, just come in and see us (or come and see us and fill out the consultation form upon arrival)!Please note that ALL dogs and cats are available to the first home that meets the dog or cat that we feel is a good match. In order to help make the best match, we do want all family members (dogs and humans) to meet any potential new family member. Our adoption center hours are: Closed Sunday/Monday; Tuesday 10a-2p, Wednesday 3p-7p, Thursday 3p-7p, Friday 10a-2p, Saturday 10a-4p. We are located at 952 W Melody Avenue in Gilbert (zip code 85233).All animals are altered, vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed, licensed (dogs). Cats tested for FELV/FIV. Dogs tested for Heartworm. All animals are available to the first family that is a good match, and if we have more than one animal who is a good match, there will be a lottery for all matches. Note that families must have come in to our adoption center and spoken with an adoption counselor prior to any lottery (when we have lotteries, they usually occur on Saturday mornings).

Story
Zadie is a Maltese/Poodle mix weighing about 12 pounds. She is potty trained, crate trained, and a very calm, low-drama little lady. She is incredibly patient and gentle, friendly with people, and gets along well with other small dogs, though she definitely prefers the company of her humans. Zadie is sweet and affectionate in a quiet, understated way. She tries to keep her feelings to herself, but her tail always betrays her. She’s happiest just being near her people and would make a wonderful companion for someone looking for an easygoing little dog to share their days with. At this stage of life, Zadie prefers taking things at a leisurely pace. She enjoys getting out and exploring, but would choose a good sniff around the block over a vigorous walk any day. She’s a gentle, well-mannered senior who is ready for a comfortable home and people of her own to love. Like all our dogs, Zadie is neutered, up to date on all her vaccines, micro chipped and has recently had extensive dental work. Zadie's adoption fee is $350. If you are interested in meeting her, please fill out an application located under her bio on our homepage www.luckydogrescue.org
