My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Hello, I`m Skitter!

Don`t let my looks fool you, I`m a sweet sensitive guy! I can be a little timid with strangers but once I`m comfortable with you I`m the best boy ever. Here`s a hint on how to win me over....it involves tasty treats! Food is the way to my heart and how to build trust with me. I`m hoping someone will have the patience to let me true colors shine! I love to play with plushie toys, chew on bones and curl up with my favorite person. I`m looking forward to meeting the whole family (dogs included) to see if we are the perfect match!

**Thanks to D`Backs Give Back and Kevin Ginkel, you can take me home for FREE!**

Additional adoption info

Dogs and cats available for adoption at the Arizona Animal Welfare League are spayed/neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, behaviorally and medically evaluated, flea/tick preventative and 30-days free pet health insurance.

The following steps outline how the adoption process works at Arizona Animal Welfare League & SPCA.

* Bring the whole family – even the dog(s). We encourage dog-to-dog introductions as a part of the match-making process and may require it in most cases. We do not require the same introductions for cats.

* Upon arriving at the Pet Match Adoption Center, you will be greeted by our friendly staff and/or volunteers and asked to fill out a short Adopter Profile. This is not an application. It is a match-making tool used to help you find the best match for you and the adoptable animals.

* You will be introduced to the available dogs and/or cats with some tips for narrowing down your search to the most appropriate pets.

* Visitors can meet one-on-one with pets in our play yards. Dogs will be introduced, too.

* If your pet meet is a success, you will spend a few minutes completing some paperwork and learning about the many "extras" included with each adoption. then you and your new family member can go home and begin your "Happy Tails" life.

* We have a variable adoption fee policy based on an animal's age, breed, temperament, behavioral issues, and physical condition. Please feel free to contact us at 602-273-6852
