Please Rescue Me's adoption process

Additional adoption info

The adoption fees vary usually from $30 to $250 depending on the type of dog and condition and age.
There is a contract to fill out and sign with requirements regarding the home and I will come to the home and check out yard, fencing and other pets and children.
There is a 7 day trial to make sure the dog fits into your home and the donation will be refunded within the 7 day period if the dog doesn't work out.

About Please Rescue Me

I moved out to the desert about twenty years ago from New Jersey. One by one strays were arriving at my home and/or I would find them roaming in the desert. People started calling me to take in more dogs and other animals. I took in a dog ten years ago who was born without her front legs. She was about two months old and was on her way to be euthanized at the Vet in Casa Grande. It was at that time that "Moses" inspired me to become a "rescue" so I could help as many dogs as possible. Five years ago one of the local woman passed away and at that time I took in all ten of her dogs that were scheduled to be put down. The neighbors called and asked me to try and take one or two but instead I took all ten who were suffering with tick infestation and all suffering from tick fever. Some of the dogs were very old and they will stay with me.
I don't put any dog down unless they are old and sick.
My place isn't fancy but it is always clean and everyone is loved and cared for. I do all the grooming myself and as much doctoring as I am able to do. The dogs have air conditioning, swimming pools, misters and love.
I do receive mostly donations of food and bedding, but monetary donations would sure help with the Vet bills.
At one time I did boarding for extra money, but now with 37 dogs, 4 cats, 13 pot bellied pigs and small farm animals including over 100 domestic rabbits in a natural habitat who are not up for adoption.
When I receive a call from someone who is surrendering their pet, I try to help them with a solution as how to keep their pet. If they are unable then I give them all the information about how and where they can try to find a home for their pet without taking it to the local shelters but rather try to rehome it themselves. I also advocate spay/neuter and give people all the information where they can have their pet taken care of at low cost facilities including our local MASH Unit which travels Maricopa and Pinal Counties.
I am retired and on Social Security and do all the work myself. I don't use foster homes nor volunteers but appreciate all the offers. Since I don't work, except for here, I take care of them 24/7 and it is what I love to do.

Please Rescue Me's adopted pets

Adopt a Pet is the easiest way for you to search for a new pet in Maricopa, AZ.

Support adoption and rescue. Why go to a dog breeder, cat breeder or pet store to buy a dog or buy a cat when you can adopt?

Why should you adopt?

Dog adoption and cat adoption saves lives. Adopt a dog or adopt a cat and you'll have a friend for life.

What is the difference between adopting a dog, adopting a cat, adopting a kitten or adopting a puppy versus getting dogs for sale, cats for sale, puppies for sale or kittens for sale from a dog breeder or a cat breeder?

When someone is breeding puppies or breeding kittens, they are creating new dogs and cats who need homes. Some people are interested in a very specific breed of dog, cat, puppy or kitten and they think the only way to find that specific breed is to buy a dog for sale or buy a cat for sale from a puppy breeder or a kitten breeder. Yet animal shelters are filled with dogs and cats who must find homes.

So rather than buying a dog or puppy for sale from a dog breeder or buying a cat or kitten for sale from a cat breeder, we encourage people to adopt a dog, adopt a cat, adopt a puppy or adopt a kitten at their local animal shelter, SPCA, humane society or pet rescue group.
