Story
Gatsby and others came out of a hoarding home with too many dogs living in the yard. They were all very afraid of humans who let them down. He's a tiny feisty 9lbs, and loves water! In his foster home he gets along with other dogs big and small as well as cats! His furever home has to have a secure yard (he doesn't even know what a leash is lol), another dog, and adult humans with patience. It might involve a few meet and greets first so patience begins there.if you are interested in meeting any of our dogs, please answer some questions on our website at www.lovefordogs.org/adopt-foster so a volunteer can reach out.

Story
Diana is a 5½-year-old, 15-pound Maltipoo who recently joined us from another facility. Now that she’s enjoyed a much-deserved spa day, this adorable little lady is ready to find her forever home!Diana is a sweet, playful girl who did very well during her behavior evaluations. She enjoys attention and companionship and would love a family to spoil her with love and cuddles. While she seems to do well overall, she may prefer calmer canine companions over high-energy dogs.With her soft fresh groom and loving personality, Diana is ready to charm her way right into your heart.To get started in the process of meeting Diana, 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
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.
