Story
PWRESCUE.ORG **PHOENIX METRO AREA ONLY** Meet Ozzie and Oreo, a delightful senior pair of sweet, shy companions looking for a peaceful haven to enjoy their golden years. Ozzie, a Havanese mix, and Oreo, a Shih Tzu mix, are both 9 years old and ready to retire in a loving, quiet home. This charming duo seeks a serene environment where they can be the center of attention. They would thrive best as the only dogs in the household, allowing them to soak up all the love and care you have to offer. A home without young children would be best, as they prefer a tranquil setting to unwind. Despite their age, Ozzie and Oreo have plenty of affection to give. Adopting them means offering a cozy, quiet and low key retreat for their twilight years while enjoying the special joy of their loving companionship. They both have a bit of a vocal streak, making them not suitable for apartment or condo living. Ozzie and Oreo are up-to-date on vaccinations, spayed/neutered, and microchipped. Their adoption fee is $350.00 for the pair. If you’re ready to provide this sweet pair with a loving home, please visit https://pwrescue.org and click on the "Adopt" button to complete an application.   Pathways Home Animal Rescue November 4, 2024, 2:59 pm

Story
PWRESCUE.ORG *PHOENIX METRO AREA ONLY* Yoda is an adorable one-year-old, 11 pound Terrier/Shih Tzu mix in search of his forever home after being found as a stray.  His distinctive name reflects his wild ears and playful expression, reminiscent of the small, wise character from Star Wars. As a young and active pup, Yoda is full of energy and always eager to engage in play and wrestling matches with other dogs. He brings a sweet and silly demeanor that is sure to charm anyone he meets. To thrive in his new environment, Yoda would greatly benefit from an active home with another dog, where he can learn and develop good behaviors through play and interaction. Additionally, having a fenced yard would be an ideal setup for him, allowing him to run and romp freely with his furry friends. With the right companions and space to play, Yoda is sure to flourish and become a cherished part of any family. Because he was found as a stray, we don't know his history with children, so any children in the home should be older and of a gentle, respectful nature.  He has not been cat tested, so cats are an unknown. Yoda is up to date on vaccinations, neutered and microchipped.  If you are interested in this sweet boy, please visit our website at:  https://pwrescue.org and click on the "Adopt" button to complete an application.  His adoption fee is $380.00.Pathways Home Animal Rescue December 19, 2024, 10:16 pm
