My personality

My story

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

Hello!!! We are the bonded pair of Ginger and Scout! Did you know we just won the Senior Olympics Gold medal for “Best All-Around Pair”? We scored 10 out of 10 on friendliness, adaptability, playfulness, energy, house training, great with kids, other dogs, riding in cars, leash manners, and manners out in public. How’s that for a perfect score? Good thing they don’t judge on getting along with cats, because we both really don’t like them!

Ginger here, and I am a 17lb 11 year old female Chihuahua Doxy mix in good health. I love to shred stuffy toys and I’m a world class kisser if you let me. Scout here, and I am a 15lb 11 year old male Chihuahua Doxy mix, too. We are both social butterflies and get so happy to meet anyone that shows us attention. Did we mention we are super affectionate? We like being with other dogs, we really would be great in a family with kids who could play with us, and we know you will be a winner too if you apply to meet us and take us home! Gold medals for everyone!

More about this rescue

Forever Loved Pet Sanctuary (FLPS) is the only senior-only animal rescue in Maricopa County, Arizona. Formed in 2012 as a non-profit 501[c][3] organization, the focus of FLPS is to save senior animals who are often overlooked by providing them the opportunity to thrive in a safe and caring environment. FLPS serves a public need by offering housing to a limited number of senior pets.

This safe haven, takes the burden of temporary care and housing of senior animals off of local shelters. Inevitably, local shelters resort to euthanizing these abandoned, senior animals at an alarming rate. According to a 2012 statistics report, Maricopa County Animal Care and Control (MCACC) euthanizes one animal every eight minutes it is open to the public. Euthanasia for senior residents is the primary option for most local shelters because they tend to focus their efforts on a high adoption model that includes younger “more adoptable” animals. FLPS works with local shelters and rescues to identify the senior animals in need and provide a streamlined process for interested men, women and families who wish to adopt.
