My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

I’m Kaiser, an 8-month-old Malinois mix. Would you believe my previous family moved away and left me behind to fend for myself without food or water in this heat? Lucky for me, some nice folks took me in and now I am putting on weight and learning the ropes in my foster home. I love playtime, learning new commands, hanging out with my humans, and meeting new people. My foster mom says I am super smart. I am housetrained, kenneled at night, and travel well in the car. Since I am young and energetic, I would do best with an active family who will continue training and exercising me. Older kids would be fine, but I may be a bit much for small children. Previous experience with my breed is preferred.  

I have shown some reactivity to other dogs, but my foster mom is helping me work on that. She says I am making great progress because I am a smart boy. 

My adopters must have a secure, fenced-in yard and be 100% committed to training and loving me for the rest of my years. My adoption fee of $350 helps offset the cost of medical expenses, including spay/neuter surgery, vaccines, and microchip. If you live in the Phoenix metro area and think I could be the right fit for you, please complete an adoption application: helpadogsmile.org/adoption-application   

*Please note that the application is not a commitment to adopt–it is a tool used to help determine if a dog and applicant would make a good match. Applications are forwarded to the foster family for review and follow-up.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Adoption is a lifetime commitment. After an application and a verbal interview is completed and it is determined that the adoption is a compatible match, a contract is signed with specific guidelines. An adoption fee (usually between $250-$500) to help off-set medical, feeding and Rescue costs is collected. The contract states that at any time the adoption does not work out, the dog is to be returned to our Rescue group for alternate placement. The dog is not to be 'given away' or 'rehomed' or 'taken to the pound'. If there are other dogs in the home, they must meet prior to adoption. All family members in the household have to agree to the adoption. No dog is to be adopted as a 'gift'. No out of state adoptions.

Adoption application

Go meet their pets

Adoptions can be arranged by appointment or our dogs can be met on the first Saturday of the month at Petsmart, Desert Ridge Noon to 3:00 PM.
