My story

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

Hi! I’m Archie!

My friend and I were found wandering around in the street at night and were very confused. We were so grateful when some nice people took us in and gave us a safe place to stay. Since our owners could not be found, we are officially HADS dogs.

My foster mom says I’m the sweetest boy in the world. I love to give kisses and nose nibbles, and get my belly rubbed. I’m having a great time with my foster siblings, who are other small dogs. I haven’t met any cats or kids yet, but I’m such a nice guy, I’m sure I’d love them too.

I’m crate trained and walk pretty good on a leash too! I’d love to find a furever home with people who are looking for a calm and gentle companion.

Archie is neutered, fully vaccinated, and microchipped. His adoption fee of $350 helps offset medical fees. If you live in the Phoenix metro area and think Archie 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.
