Hello there Cruzaders…. We have an emergency situation. Poor Diamond had an accident in her foster home yesterday and is currently at our vet with a broken front leg. Not good news for us. She was scheduled for a meet and greet/ adoption tomorrow. We need help covering her appointment today. Donations ARE tax deductible! They can be called directly to our vet at 480-948-1770, Venmo (be sure is is the account with a single s at the end as we found a duplicate account which we have reported!), PayPal [email protected] or Zelle at 480-570-0914. Please help us cover this urgent, unexpected cost. ♥️ We appreciate you!

Good afternoon Cruzaders! We are in desperate need of foster homes for the next 3 weeks. It’s very short term until we get into our building and can get them temporarily set up while we remodel. We have a chi mix male, Lady who needs to be an only dog, and Gianna and Jaylee who are dog friendly. We also have Lexi and Lex Luther who are recent tripods that would recover better in a home environment. We supply you with everything you need. Please reach out if you can help even for a couple of weeks. ♥️

Good morning Cruzaders! We have an urgent need for placement for Lady. She is a 5 month old spayed female staffie, boxer, bulldog mix. She is fully vaccinated and microchipped. Lady is exhibiting extreme resource guarding with other dogs around food and toys. She needs to be in an only dog household. She doesn’t have issues with others when there are no toys or food around. And the resource guarding seems to be just with other dogs not humans and adores attention and little kids. She isn’t reactive on a leash and is house and crate trained. She also uses a dog door like a champ. Her adoption fee is $250. Please complete our adoption questionnaire and we will contact you to set up a meet and greet.

Good morning Cruzaders! 1 year old Sonny is looking for his forever home. He’s a little shy and needs some work on his leash when there are a lot of other things going on, but he is an all-star cuddler for sure. He would do best in a home without toddlers as sometimes sudden movements or loud noises scare him. He is house trained, crate trained, and good with other dogs. His adoption fee is $300. He is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and vetted. Please complete our adoption questionnaire and we will contact you to set up a meet and greet. ♥️

So we are starting our day off with a bang! Tanna delivered her first puppy this am… we took in a mom yesterday with a pr*****ed uterus and a 2 day old puppy. Andi is currently at our partner vet in New Mexico. Little Topher had his jaw repaired in Juarez with the help of our NM rescue friend Almost Home. The need for these animals is getting worse. Please take care of your animals. Spay and neuter and if you need help with this, please reach out. As cute as puppies are, there is a serious overpopulation problem going on in the United States.

***In Foster to Adopt***
Good morning Cruzaders! We have a gorgeous little 3 month old female boxer mix coming into rescue this week! We are looking for a foster or foster to adopt home for her while we finish her vaccines and spay. We ultimately would love to move her into her permanent home so foster to adopt would be our preference. Please message us if you are looking for a sweet little boxer girl. ♥️♥️♥️

Good morning Cruzaders! As we approach our move in date to our new building, we need help raising funds to make the building safe for the doggies! The building has been used as a rescue building for the past 15 years. There are several repairs and updates that need to happen before we can actually house the dogs there and do adoptions from the building. We have started a GoFundMe. You can share and donate via our fundraiser or you can donate via Venmo at , PayPal [email protected], Zelle at 480-570-0914. You can also mail checks and/ or gift cards to:

Good afternoon Cruzaders! It’s always a good day when we get to visit old friends of our rescue. These 3 young people had a bake sale and donated their proceeds to us today! $130! That covers a spay for this week. We gave the family t-shirts and they got to hang out with 3 month old siblings Galaxy and Atlas. Involving our youth in rescue and community service work is so very important. They are the leaders of tomorrow ♥️♥️♥️

Good evening Cruzaders…. We did it. Our first medical rescue of 2025 and he will be having his front leg amputated. He was hit by a car and his shoulder was too broken to repair. We have named this sweet boy Lex Luther. If you would like to make a donation towards his care, we would appreciate the help! Our Venmo is , PayPal is [email protected] and Zelle is 480-570-0914.

***ADOPTED***
Good evening Cruzaders! Meet Lady/ Hera. This sweet girl is a 4.5 month old pit mix (we have dna test results). She is spayed, microchipped, vetted, and vaccinated. She does get along with cats and dogs, but may do best in a home as the only dog as she doesn’t like to share food with the other dogs. She is crate trained, house trained, leash trained, and dog door trained. She is very good with kids. She will be a good medium size (50-60 pounds) full grown. Her adoption fee is $400. Please message us and complete our adoption questionnaire if you would like to meet this sweet pretty girl!

Happy New Year Cruzaders! We have some very big news! After over 10 years in rescue, yesterday we confirmed our 501c3 status! And possibly the most exciting news to share is that we have signed the lease for a building for the rescue! This has been a long time in the works. Nothing worked out before, but this time, it’s real! 2/1/25 is the day the lease begins. The property needs some improvements and we will need a little time before it’s up and running at full capacity. We will be starting a GoFundMe to help with starting costs as we will need 1-2 commercial washers and dryers, paint and other supplies, cleaning supplies, furniture, etc. We have to secure the electric and water. We will also need volunteers! So stay tuned… and please consider donating to help us start off! Venmo is , PayPal [email protected] and Zelle is 480-570-0914. Checks or gift cards can be mailed to Cruz’s Crusaders, PO Box 67626, Phoenix, AZ 85082. It takes a village. ♥️

Good morning Cruzaders! It’s the last day of the year and we need help! We have a 6 week old puppy making the trek to Juarez today to have surgery on a severely broken jaw, we busted Lexi our newest amputee out of medical boarding this past Friday. We have vet visits and spay and neuters. Our rescue account is completely empty. Any help is greatly appreciated. It has been a very expensive past 2 months with surgeries, vet visits, and spay and neuters. The total not including food, laundry expenses, and other necessities has been around $5,000. Even $1 from all of our followers would be extremely helpful. It takes a village! Venmo PayPal [email protected] and Zelle is 480-570-0914. Thank you and here’s to an upcoming announcement and a Happy New Year!

Merry Christmas Eve Cruzaders! We were able to pick up 2 pallets of food yesterday at a huge discount. We could use help covering the $400 cost. I know it’s the holidays, but anything helps! We also had vet visits today totaling $224. We are so very grateful to our wonderful Kati Carpenter and her husband Chad for saving the day and picking up the pallets of food. ♥️ zelle 480-570-914, Venmo , and PayPal [email protected]

Good evening… Cruzaders, meet Mr. Worldwide. This big boy is 4 months and 35-40 pounds. We will be sending off a dna test for him. He was at a kill shelter we partner with. We were going to take a few others, but decided on him instead to open a kennel. That means we saved him and created an opening for another stray. Why did we change our mind? Pay attention to the video especially if you listen. All the chaos and he is just playing with his toy. He doesn’t jump on the kennel when Amy is talking to him filming him. He’s just a big friendly boy…. He is dog friendly and loves everyone. Stay tuned for this big guy to be available for adoption!
