***ADOPTED***
Good evening Cruzaders! Meet Panther (f) and Tiger (m). These 2.5 month old puppies are looking for their forever homes. They are getting spayed and neutered on Tuesday and could go home with you for Christmas! Adoption fee is $400 and will include spay/ neuter, microchip, and current age appropriate vaccines. They will need follow up vaccines done…. In all the pictures, Tiger is on the left and Panther is on the right. They have been around kids and are great. They are young… they will need training and socialization to keep their amazing personalities. Puppies are hard work! Be sure you know what you are getting into! To set up a meet and greet or inquire about adoption, please message the page or text 480-570-0914. ♥️

Update on baby Gizmo…. After a 6 hour er visit yesterday, during which time we literally watched the ball grow from golf ball size the size of a pear, he had an abscess. It was lanced and drained probably 20cc’s of pus. He is recovering today in our amazing foster home with Barbara and her family. Yesterday’s total was $480. We could use help with this as we did raise $50 towards this yesterday. He will need a follow up visit after his antibiotics, but he is a pretty amazing puppy and everyone who meets this little nugget falls in love. He’s going to be a big boy as At 10 weeks he is already 18 pounds. We believe he is a rottie husky mix. Donations can be sent via Venmo at last four 0914 and zelle 480-570-0914 (Andrea Smith) or PayPal friends and family at [email protected]. We would be happy to send you a donation receipt. It takes a village. ♥️

We brought these 5 beautiful dogs into the rescue today. Actually, Twitch, Tony, and ZigZag had been waiting for the last 3 weeks to hitch a ride here and the pittie babies were found on the Rez at the school. We select dogs to come into rescue sometimes a month or more in advance. This is what makes returns hard. It appears we have space, but in reality there are dogs waiting for the spaces we open up with Fosters, foster to adopt, and adoptions. When we do our adoptions, our contract states you may have to hold your dog for up to 30 days. You agree to that when you adopt. We try as hard as we can, but the holidays are hard. Fosters change their minds or need a break for holidays. 😞 Our dogs don’t know what that means… but we do… we just work harder and have long days. In the end, the lives we save are worth it. When you commit, know what you are getting into. These poor babes have feelings. They are far from just dogs. ♥️

Hey there Cruzaders! Another sweet boy returning to rescue. We would very much like to find an adopter for Yoshi. He has been in his current home since November of 2023 and transition to a permanent home would be ideal for this boy. He is house trained, good with kids, crate trained, and current on vaccines. Sadly, his family had a change in dynamics and Yoshi no longer fits. This boy was an amazing puppy and he has grown into a fun loving l, go get em boy who just wants to be loved. He is neutered, microchipped, and current on vaccines. We will get him vetted before he goes to his new family. What we ask is that if you decide to adopt Yoshi, you make sure you are making a lifetime commitment. We want that all the time, but when dogs are returned after being with a family for years, it’s more important. And remember, when dynamics change, your dog can change with you… it’s not an invitation to dump them. All they want from us is love… they don’t care where they live or what they have… they just want us to love them. ♥️

We are in immediate need of a foster for Pickle. He was adopted 2.5 months ago and his “family” has decided he needs training and patience that they don’t have. They want me to get him today and I told them that isn’t feasible as I need to find him or someone else a foster home, it will not be today as it’s 145 pm.
This is rescue. This is the 2nd adopter in 48 hours to need to return a dog because it’s no longer convenient or cute. This dog has been with a family 2.5 months and the other 2 years. Please stop adopting dogs if you don’t intend to keep them when you have life changes or they turn out to be a little more work than expected. We take our dogs back, but this is ridiculous. Puppies require training and dogs adjust to our life changes just as we do.
If you can foster Pickle or someone else in our rescue so we can get Pickle and Yoshi to a new space, please message the page.
