Athena - The Puppy Goddess of Big Smiles & Tailwags
After her owner sadly passed away in June of this year, Athena and another dog had nowhere else to turn. With no one else to care for them, they were rescued by the Arizona Humane Society and now this gorgeous five-year-old American Bulldog is still looking for her forever home.
Upon being transferred to the organization, Athena was found to have some irritation on her paw pads, a few worn teeth and some swelling of her back leg. With a few dental extractions behind her, the jubilant pup has healed nicely and hopes to find a forever home that allows her to be her energetic, outgoing...
Betty Loves Showing Off Her Tricks!
In memory of an Arizona Humane Society alum, Jean Valjean, a senior black cat who sadly passed away from cancer, all black pets have $0 adoption fees now through August 28 thanks to an anonymous donor and adopter who has generously offered to sponsor adoption fees.

Thankfully, she was found before heat exhaustion could overcome her and was found to be a little underweight when evaluated...

At 12-years-young, Charlie never imagined he would be back at the Arizona Humane Society looking for a new forever home. Unfortunately, he has been in the care of the shelter since June after his owner fell ill and was no longer able to care for him.
The sweet Labrador Retriever has a longstanding history with the Arizona Humane Society after he was originally adopted in 2014 after being rescued as a stray. Now that he is back, adorable Charlie has been treated for some tummy issues as well as a bit of a puppy cold.
As a senior, Charlie would love nothing more than a loving family that allows him...
