Story
Coco is well trained she knows many tricks like sit, spin, bark, whisper, up, down. She is so sweet she likes to wear sweaters and long walks. She loves popcorn and candy occasionally. She loves when you sing to her. The reason we are unfortunately rehoming is because she has really bad anxiety. She is not good with kids, she can play near them but gets too scared to engage and play. Shes not good with dogs either. She use to but over the years I think her anxiety just got worse. If medicated she’d probably be ok with dogs. she would be great as an only dog no kids & needs a lot of love and care. We are not able to prioritize her and she’s not a good fit for our growing family with a baby and a 5yr old. We are devastated but it’s just not worth the risk of her hurting our kids due to anxiety and fear. We hope to find her a loving home that can fulfill her needs and give her all the love she deserves!

Story
Rose Is Ready to Bloom! Some  puppies are wild and busy… and then there’s Rose . Soft, gentle, loving, and just the right amount of playful. At just 4 months old, Rose already has the most beautiful temperament. She loves everyone she meets, enjoys playtime without being overwhelming, and melts right into cuddles. She’s the kind of puppy who fits perfectly into your life instead of turning it upside down. She is around 11lbs now and is doing great with her crate and house training. She is so smart! Her adoption fee is $250 and she is spayed, vaccinated and microchipped. To meet her text 602-908-6215.  December 14, 2025, 5:51 pm

Meet Mistletoe!! Age: ~7-8  months Breed: Terrier mix Size: ~15 lbs This beautiful girl is everything you could hope for in a young dog — sweet, gentle, loving, and incredibly well-behaved. At just 7 months old, she already has such a calm and happy presence, making her an easy addition to almost any home. She is friendly with everyone she meets and truly loves people. She’s social without being overwhelming, affectionate without being demanding, and always happy to be by your side. Her gentle nature makes her a joy to have around, whether she’s quietly cuddling or happily following you from room to room. She is crate trained and house trained, and for such a young pup, she has wonderful manners. She’s eager to please, easygoing, and has a naturally loving temperament that makes her stand out. If you’re looking for a sweet companion with a kind heart and a happy soul, this girl is it. She’s ready to bring love, joy, and wagging tails into her forever home. Her adoption fee is $180 and she is spayed, vaccinated and microchipped. To meet her text 602-908-6215.  December 13, 2025, 6:34 pm

Story
Pandora (“Pepper”) – A Spicy Little Cuddle Bug Looking for Her PersonAge: Puppy/youngSize: SmallBreed: Mixed breedPersonality: Loving, people-selective, fearful, spicy, playful, cuddle bug, people pleaserAbout Pandora—affectionately called Pepper because she’s “a little bit spicy”—is a sweet, sensitive young dog who has already been through more than any puppy should. Brought to the shelter with two other dogs, she arrived malnourished, with bite marks on her ears and legs, and showing signs of littermate syndrome. Despite everything, she is blossoming into the most devoted little companion.Pepper bonds deeply with her person and has formed a strong connection to her foster mom. She’s extremely affectionate, cuddly, and happiest curled up on your lap while you watch the news or a movie. She truly is a Velcro dog—she will follow her person everywhere and take comfort in being close.House Training-Pepper is doing excellent with house training as long as her routine is followed. Her foster takes her out:Immediately after wakingAfter playtime30–60 minutes after mealEvery hour during the dayShe is also learning to ring a bell to indicate she needs to go outside. She does not yet naturally signal, so her owner must stay on top of her schedule. When supervised and kept on routine, she has very few accidents.When left in the laundry room (with her crate, toys, water, and a peanut-butter Kong), she has held it for up to 5 hours without peeing or pooping.Crate TrainingPepper is doing wonderfully with crate training and sleeps in her crate at night next to her foster mom’s bed—though she would always prefer to sleep with you! She will rest quietly in her crate with a Kong and settles well when alone, usually crying for just a few minutes before going to sleep. She is learning the cue to go into her crate and is reinforced with peanut butter or small bits of her Orijen Small Breed kibble (the only food she will eat right now)Behavior & Training ProgressPepper is a fearful, noise-sensitive dog who takes time to warm up to new people, environments, and experiences. With patience, she is making huge strides:Leash ReactivityShe can bark or lunge at people and dogs on leash.She is responding very well to deconditioning and desensitization.Her foster uses distance, calm repetition, and high-value food (peanut butter or kibble).If she goes over threshold, treats won’t help—she simply needs space.With Other DogsS
