Daphne is a sweet senior gal that we believe is around 10 years old. She was e-listed at Maricopa County Animal Care & Control due to having multiple masses, including mammary masses and one on her foot. Right after we pulled her in early August, she got very sick with respiratory issues to the point where we weren’t sure if she would make it through the first week. But Daphne is a fighter, as she likely has had to be her whole life, and she slowly improved week after week until she was finally healthy enough to get spayed and have her masses removed. When she went in for surgery, we knew about the mass on her foot and 3 mammary masses, all of which had been tested and were benign. While the surgery was being done, the vet found a 4th mammary mass that was sent in for testing and came back as stage 2 carcinoma. We’re currently working on a plan to either monitor her or have her go back and get some of the area around where the mass was removed, depending on what the vet and an oncologist decide would be best for her specific case.
Despite her difficult life prior to rescue and her medical issues, Daphne is truly the best girl who has done great with all 3 dogs and both cats in her foster home. She’s relatively low energy, but does love her 2-3 short walks a day and has started showing some interest in briefly playing with her foster siblings when she gets excited. When she plays, she has the cutest little raspy bark that leads us to believe she was debarked at some point. Daphne is house broken and not destructive, so she’s able to be left to roam freely when her foster parents aren’t home. On top of that, she knows basic commands like sit, shake with both paws, lay down, and speak. She also loves to go for car rides with the windows down and the wind in her face. Daphne hasn’t been around children so far, but we have no doubt she’d do great meeting kids of all ages.
Daphne is such a wonderful, easy-going girl, we really think she could thrive in just about any household. Adopting a senior pup can be a difficult decision for some, but we guarantee you won’t regret giving Daphne a shot at living the good life for the rest of her years like she deserves! If Daphne’s story resonates with you and you need an easy senior in your life, please fill out our adoption application!

Additional adoption info
We ensure that our huskies only go to families on a property with a 6ft secure fence, and remain the guardian of the animal for life - if there is ever need for a family to rehome their husky again due to health or any other major concern, we are always willing to take the dog back and find them a new home.

We do not have a physical shelter location just yet, and operate solely out of foster homes. We are planning to begin participating in adoption events in the near future - these will be listed on our website once available!
