Story
Hello! My name is Oso, which means “bear” in Spanish—but don’t let the name fool you! I’m a gentle giant with a heart full of love. I was saved just three hours before my time was up at the county shelter, and even though I’m a senior, I have so much life and love left to give! I’m all about people—I love them, like really, really love them. After spending my whole life outdoors, I’m absolutely thrilled by the comfort of indoor air conditioning and a doggy door that lets me wander into the yard whenever I want. Life is good! One of my favorite things is carrying around my stuffed toys, especially the small ones—they make me so happy! I also love chasing a ball and am the best boy when it’s time for a bath. Treats are my weakness, especially chicken tacos (yum!). I’m looking for a home where I can be the only dog because I just want to soak up all the love for myself. I’m easygoing, never bark, and my tail wiggles with joy when I meet new friends. I’m dreaming of a forever home where I can give lots of kisses, enjoy scratchies, and just be your loyal companion for the rest of my days. If you can offer me a place to call home, please reach out to my foster mom, Jenn, at 602-710-4143. I can’t wait to meet you! ❤️ I’m a courtesy post for Valley Dogs Rescue.

Story
PLEASE NOTE: This dog is courtesy posted for another individual or Rescue. Different policies and fees may apply.  Meet Bear! This fluffy, cuddly sweetheart has been waiting for his forever home for over two years after being abandoned at a boarding facility in April 2022. Bear is as loving and loyal as they come—his tail is always wagging, and he thrives on being around his people. Bear is great on a leash, making him the perfect hiking or walking buddy. He loves car rides, especially feeling the wind in his face, and enjoys splashing in the water on warm days. Well-mannered in public, Bear adores pets and quality time with his family. While he’s non-reactive to other dogs on walks and hikes, he’ll need a proper introduction to any potential fur siblings, which the rescue will facilitate. Bear would do best in a home without kids or cats. This happy, soft, and affectionate boy is up to date on vaccines, neutered, and microchipped. After such a long wait, Bear is ready for a loving home where he can finally relax and enjoy life. Could that be with you?

Story
Gene is a purebred American Akita we purchased about a year ago. She’s just over one year old and due to new work schedules we don’t have the time to tend to her needs. She hasn’t been around other dogs very often, but she has never bit any people. She doesn’t bark much and is potty trained. We are hoping to find a new great home for her.

Story
Honey is a very sweet siberian husky who loves to go on walks, run at the park, play with toys and just lounge around. He loves car rides and pup cups too. He loves small dogs however they tend to be scared of his size. He does good with big dogs if they are not too dominant. He does have a nail condition called Lupoid Onychodystrophy which causes his nails to separate from the quick, this only happens when his nails get too long. With frequent nail trims we haven't had an incident. Because of this, he does not like to have his feet touched and will warn you but will not bite. My ex girlfriend unfortunately abandoned her dog to me and I can no longer care for him.

Story
MEET  KAYA! Kaya is a 2-year-old Husky mix who’s just beginning to discover how good life can be. After spending her early years isolated in a backyard with minimal interaction, she’s blossomed into a playful, curious, and affectionate companion who’s ready for adventure. Kaya loves walks and is always up for tagging along on a hike or outing. She’s goofy and full of personality — the kind of dog who will make you smile every day. While she’s still learning how to interact with other dogs, she may do well with a calm, well-socialized dog of similar size. However, she should not live with cats. She’s house trained, spayed, and knows some basic commands. Kaya is still gaining confidence with new people and situations, so she’ll do best in a home that offers structure, patience, and plenty of positive reinforcement. Kaya Would Thrive In a Home With: • An active lifestyle and lots of outdoor time • A secure, fenced yard (6 ft required) • No cats, and only one other calm dog (if any) • A confident, experienced adopter who can guide her continued progress • A calm environment to help her continue building trust Kaya is spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, and ready to find her people.

Story
Please note this dog is NOT an official Underdog dog, and you will be connected with the person who has the dog. Please Contact Delaney, 480-319-1725, delkellysmith@outlook.com:   MEET GRANDPA!! Grandpa is a previous rescue and has come a long way since being adopted. He has had rigorous training and responds well to learning commands. He already knows, sit, down, place (get in kennel), go to bed (in kennel), come, go, wait, leave it, and heel (walk on left side while you walk). He is still capable of learning more. He is not destructive when left alone. He is triggered by the doorbell and spends a good portion of his day sleeping by the door. Once the weather is nice, he wants to be outside as much as possible. In the evenings, he will play with his ball. He is a great companion with very little day to day needs. Grandpa was attacked before he was adopted and is very reactive. He does need to be the only pet in the home. He gets along with most humans, but he is very sensitive to the energy of those around him. He is fine with children, but he can take on a protective role to visitors while around the children. Grandpa is a wonderful dog, and would thrive in a slow paced home where he can lay out in the sun outside. He loves his belly rubbed and wants some pets when you are home, but he is otherwise a very independent dog and loves to just observe the world around him. He is currently taking glucosamine supplements, but a healthy dog. Grandpa is a wonderful dog that needs some extra understanding for his previous background. Meet Grandpa today! If you are interested in meeting this dog, please visit our website for our online application www.underdogaz.com  PLEASE NOTE: This dog is courtesy posted for another individual or Rescue. Different policies and fees may apply. September 25, 2025, 5:54 pm
