Last year, more than 17,000 pets were brought in through the Arizona Humane Society’s Field Team, which consists of Emergency Animal Medical Technicians and Cruelty Investigators. One of those dear pets was sweet Carmen, a four-year-old American pit bull terrier who was rescued from cruelty earlier this month.

Carmen was originally seized by Phoenix Police after she and a few other dogs were found to be in need of medical care, which their previous owner was not providing. Upon evaluation in the Arizona Humane Society’s trauma hospital, it was found that she was suffering from a broken leg.

 It was determined that this sweet girl was in need of an amputation as the leg was unable to be saved however she has remained her adorably goofy self while in the care of the shelter. Although she loves people and other dogs, Carmen will need a home where there are no cats or critters as she prefers her canine friends.

Carmen’s adoption fee includes her spay surgery, current vaccinations, a microchip, and a follow-up wellness exam with a VCA Animal Hospital. Visit this adorable girl at the Arizona Humane Society's Sunnyslope Campus or learn more at azhumane.org/adopt to give her the loving forever home she deserves.
