Impound # 1095720 Domestic Short Hair Tabby, 9 weeks, 2 lbs I’m Bailee, a beautiful, tiny girl who came to the shelter as a stray. The staff thinks I was abandoned outside for awhile because I was very skinny when they found me. I’m real friendly, loveable and have a great big heart of gold. I’m looking for a forever home. Could you be the one?
Impound # 1094657 Rabbit, 8 months, 3 lbs I’m Layla and my guardian dumped me and my littermate at the shelter because he had too many rabbits. We are the most adorable duo…very friendly and love to get attention. Have I mentioned how cute I am? Please adopt me. Rabbits make the greatest companions.
Impound # 1087703 Boxer Mix, 1 yr, 54 lbs I’m handsome Buster and came to the shelter as a stray. I LOVE walks, have a lot of energy, am super smart and just want to make you happy. The shelter volunteers say I’d be fun to work out with because I can keep up and keep you exercising! Because I’m a little goofy and need some basic training (hey, I’m a baby still and no one taught me) I am best with bigger dogs.
Impound # 1093314 Chihuahua, 9 months, 6 lbs I’m Copper and came to the shelter as a stray. I had a rough start of it because while on the streets I had parvo and almost died. Luckily, the shelter saved me!! (Thank you East Valley staff). Now I’m all well and can’t wait to be in a forever home. I’m good with dogs, cats and love everyone I meet. Won’t you take me home?
