My story

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

 

Howdy my name is Shelly, and I am a petite girl who weighs only 11 pounds at  10 months old.  I get along great with the other dogs in my foster home and I love my humans.  I am a little too curious about the cat in my foster home so he doesn’t like me.  
 

I am a typical puppy, who loves supervised play time and then, when tired, I love to snuggle with my humans. I am eager to learn new things. Right now I’m  learning this thing called a dog door. It’s so much fun!.  With the right encouragement, environment and love I will excel at carving myself into your heart! I truly look forward to finding my forever home and spending my days having so much fun and showing off what a good girl I am! I have a world of love to give and hope to share with my new family soon

 

Shelly  is spayed, fully vaccinated, and microchipped. Her adoption fee of $350 helps offset medical fees. If you live in the Phoenix metro area and think Shelly could be the right fit for you, please complete an adoption application at:     https://www.helpadogsmile.org/adoption-application/.  
  

*Please note that the application is not a commitment to adopt–it is a tool used to help determine if a dog and applicant would make a good match. Applications are forwarded to the foster family for review and follow-up.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Adoption is a lifetime commitment. After an application and a verbal interview is completed and it is determined that the adoption is a compatible match, a contract is signed with specific guidelines. An adoption fee (usually between $250-$500) to help off-set medical, feeding and Rescue costs is collected. The contract states that at any time the adoption does not work out, the dog is to be returned to our Rescue group for alternate placement. The dog is not to be 'given away' or 'rehomed' or 'taken to the pound'. If there are other dogs in the home, they must meet prior to adoption. All family members in the household have to agree to the adoption. No dog is to be adopted as a 'gift'. No out of state adoptions.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

Adoptions can be arranged by appointment or our dogs can be met on the first Saturday of the month at Petsmart, Desert Ridge Noon to 3:00 PM.
