Name: Sparky
Age: 12 years old
S*x: Neutered Male
Breed: Shih Tzu
Weight: approx. 10 lbs
Adoption fee: $300

Sparky is a sweet but shy older gentleman. He's a snuggle bug once he has warmed up. He is mainly housetrained but occasionally has an accident we believe due to his vision at night. He does require eye medication which he is very used to doing. He will probably due best with older children that can respect his boundaries, due to his sight limitations. He does require grooming but is very tolerant of this. His front legs have a congenital deformity that at this time do not require care but he would be best in a home with no stairs, or need to be carried up and down. If you would like to meet Sparky please fill out an application to meet him in foster care

Solana
Gender: Spayed Female
Age: 10 years
Breed: Chihuahua mix
Weight: 12 pounds

Compatibility with other dogs: Good
Compatibility with cats: Unknown
Compatibility with kids: Unknown
Energy level: Moderate

Talk about a glow up! In Solana's golden years, she somehow found herself dumped on the highway in the middle of the desert. She was in one of the worst conditions we've seen a dog. You may have seen her story featured on our page!

If you're looking for a calm, cuddly companion, Solana aka Lana is your girl! This sweet, low-energy pup loves to lounge, snuggle with her humans, and hang out with the other laid-back dogs. She's polite, knows how to use the dog door, and enjoys short walks before settling in for a nap.

Solana would do best in a quiet home with adults or older, dog-savvy kids who appreciate her gentle nature. If you're ready for a relaxed best friend who loves to love, please fill out an application to meet Solana in foster care.

Stevie
Gender: Male
Age: 1 year 7 months
Breed: Chihuahua
Weight: 9.6 lbs.
Compatibility with other dogs: Good
Compatibility with cats: Good
Compatibility with kids: Older kids
Energy level: Moderate

Stevie may be a little hesitant at first, but once he feels safe with a gentle human, he’ll give you his whole heart. This sweet boy is incredibly affectionate. He’s the perfect cuddle buddy, when he's not busy romping around with his furry friends, that is! Stevie loves to play, especially with other friendly dogs. Whether it’s tossing around tiny cat toys, playing tug-of-war like he’s a big tough guy, or just running around with the pack, he’s always up for some fun. He’s got a playful spirit and could go all day if you let him.

A secure yard would be ideal for Stevie, as he enjoys taking his time to sniff around and “take care of business” at his own pace. He’s potty pad trained and is currently learning to use the doggy door in his foster home. Stevie is not much of a traveler so he's perfectly content always being at home with his family.

If you're looking for a sweet, playful, and cuddly companion who gets along great with other dogs, Stevie might just be your perfect match!
To meet him in foster, please fill out an application on our website azsmalldog.org.
