Story
PWRESCUE.ORG **PHOENIX METRO AREA ONLY** Fritz is a 12 pound, 3 1/2 year old Shih Tzu mix (poodle/terrier?) who came to the rescue when his owners did not claim him.  Fritz LOVES every human and most dogs. He will probably get along with another dog in the home or is okay with just his human as long as you are around more than not -- or just take him with you!  He would be a great sidekick! He's a sweet boy who will velcro himself to you and follow you everywhere!  You can tell he wants to be with humans and be involved with whatever you are doing!  Fritz would love walks around the neighborhood while it's still cool. We're not sure how he is with cats or small children, so would have to be tested.  Fritz would love a nice, secure yard to run and play in or just hang out with you during the nice weather!  Fritz is up to date on vaccinations, neutered and microchipped.  His adoption fee is $380.00.   If you want a new best buddy, please visit our website at:  https://pwrescue.org and click on the Adopt button to complete an application.Pathways Home Animal Rescue May 3, 2024, 11:48 am

Story
Timone is a very sweet kind of stand offish dog. My parents initially got him with his two brothers. Unfortunately Timone and one of his littermates fought a lot, so my mom ended up giving him to me. He is a really smart and cheeky pup! Unfortunately living in an apartment complex has made him reactive to other dogs. He is incredibly stressed every time he goes for a walk and we unfortunately do not have the financial availability to get him the proper training. He really needs to be in a house not an apartment, he loves having a backyard to run in.He loves oatmilk mint ice cream and steak.

Story
Milo is a handsome silver and white Shih Tzu boy who came to us because his owners were going through a divorce. He's a quiet, well behaved little guy and is 9 years old. He has not been exposed to children so we prefer he is in an adult home. In addition to being neutered, he has had a dental cleaning and bloodwork as well as all of his vaccinations. He is a great companion for someone in a quiet home. He is house trained and used to sleeping in a crate at night. Milo is a coated dog (hair grows continuously) and will need professional grooming every 6-8 weeks. Milo's adoption fee is $350 This fee includes at least one health exam at our veterinarian while in our care, altering, all vaccinations including rabies (as permitted by age), a pre-adoption professional grooming and a microchip with lifetime membership that never will cost you a fee. All dogs also leave with a new collar and or harness and leash as well as a gift bag which includes among other things, a starter bag of the quality kibble that is being fed at the rescue. Adoption fees also allow us the ability to put funds towards the next homeless or unwanted dog in need of rescue! If you would like to be considered to for this adoption or any of our amazing rescues, please fill out the application with the help of this link. https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/AZST/Dog. We review each application carefully. Please understand that sometimes we get numerous applications for specific dogs and as a volunteer-based rescue, we do not always have the time to respond to each one. We do our best to choose the most suitable home for each dog based on their specific personality and needs. Please note you MAY NOT be contacted for up to 10 days to schedule a meet and greet if your family is the most suitable for this rescue dog. Regrettably, we do not have the manpower currently to contact all applicants. We keep ALL applications in our database so please feel free to contact us when you see another dog of interest. We appreciate all applicants and do our best to pair ever dog and family for a successful and happy life.

Story
Well hello there! We are Champ and Pepe, and we are poised to steal your heart. Champ is a 10 year old 20 lb ShihTzu/Poodle mix and Pepe is a 10 year old 8 lb Poodle/Schnauzer mix. (A Shih Poo and a Schnoodle, how cute are we?) We came to Forever Loved after our owner passed away, and in the blink of an eye, we were suddenly homeless. We have been so grateful to them for taking us in and getting to know how perfect of a pair we really are. We are the best of friends, and can often be seen sitting together on our chair, or laying together on a bed. When we go out to the play yard, we are not so “joined at the hip” that we can’t be apart - Champ loves to play fetch with the tennis ball and Pepe loves to find the closest human for some snuggles and petting. We are both reliably house trained, we keep our kennel clean and tidy, and we don’t fight over anything! We both love petting and affection and Champ will nudge you gently for more. Pepe will do a darling little dance for you, and how can you resist our darling faces? We aren’t loud and barky, and we ride nicely in the car. We can go for easy walks, but you won’t find us misbehaving if we don’t get vigorous walkies. We both have some luxating patellas in our rear legs, but we don’t need medication or pain killers. What that means is that when we walk quickly, we have this wonky gait, so don’t be alarmed. Pepe’s bloodwork came back with zero concerns and Champ shows indication that in the past he has had Valley Fever. The vet said that Champ will benefit from some weight loss which will help with his gait, and Pepe is just perfect! We were both great for bathing and grooming, and make sure you know that we will benefit from regular haircuts to keep us looking as adorable as ever! We are good with other dogs, and really, adopting us as a pair will be easy-peasy. You will get twice the love and laughs, and your heart will be twice as full. Just look at our precious faces and apply to meet us. You will be glad you did, we promise!
