Meet Pete! Pete was rescued from the west county shelter. We don’t know much about his life before the shelter but we do know that he came in with a friend. When his friend was added to the euthanasia list (due to being stressed in the shelter environment) she was saved but that meant he was left on his own. He, too, became stressed and it was a matter of time before he landed on the euthanasia list as well. Fortunately he was saved, too. Now, Pete is looking for a foster or a forever home.
He’s said to be 2 years old and at 33lbs appears to be quite the mix — possibly beagle / basset hound / pittie mix. While he may be small in size, he more than makes up for it in personality. Pete had been staying with a dog trainer that was helping Pete build his trust in people. He’s come a long way and the trainer believes he’s now ready for the next chapter in his life. The trainer could even facilitate his move into his new home, too — making sure it’s a good mutual fit for all involved.
Pete does well with men and women — and gets along with dogs of all sizes. Of course, a meet and greet will best determine how he is with the people / pets of prospective fosters / adopters. He’d do best in a patient home with an experienced foster / adopter that will continue to reinforce what the trainer has taught him.
All this boy wants is to be someone’s loyal, faithful friend — and is waiting to meet YOU!

More about this rescue
We're a 501c3 organization that focuses on raising funds and awareness to save Arizona dogs in need - whether it be by supporting other local rescues or rescuing dogs ourselves. Our rescue is a New Hope Partner with Maricopa County, so we're able to pull at-risk dogs off county's euthanasia list ("e-list") and thus saving their lives by placing them in foster homes until we find their forever families / homes.
With that said, our mission is simple: find ways to unite the hearts of humans and dogs ... forever.
