My story

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

Mercury is a spirited four-year-old, 40-pound Terrier/APBT mix with a heart
as big as his playful personality. Despite being a tripod, Mercury doesn’t let anything slow him down—he’s a lively boy who loves pouncing on balls, chasing stuffies, and engaging in interactive play with his favorite people. Once he gets to know you, Mercury’s sweet, affectionate side shines through, and he’ll happily soak up all the scritches and pets you can give.

Though initially shy with new faces, Mercury warms up quickly and
becomes a loyal, attentive companion. He’s easy to leash up, walks well on
a leash, and remains calm when other dogs pass by. If his attention wanders, a quick redirection does the trick. Mercury is eager to please and will sit politely for treats, which he takes with the gentlest manners.

With his affectionate nature and playful energy, Mercury is the perfect match for a family seeking a loving, devoted companion. His adoption fee of $225 includes spaying/neutering, vaccinations, microchipping, and a complimentary wellness visit at Phoenix Mountain Animal Hospital. Come meet Mercury and see if he’s the missing piece to your family! Call 602-971-1334 to schedule an appointment during adoption hours, Thursday through Saturday, 11:00 am to 4:00 pm. Mercury is ready to brighten your days!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Home Fur Good has trained adoption counselors to review and question any potential problems/issues with application. We do require an adoption fee which ranges for dogs $150-$300 and for cats $50-$100. All cats and dogs are spayed/neutered, microchipped, vaccinated and vet checked.
If another dog or dogs are present in the household we require a meet and greet prior to adoption. All members of the household must be on board with adoption. We do not adopt our rescues out without meeting person that will be responsible - no "gift" adoptions. We contract that if cat/dog must be relinquished they are returned to us. If there is a change of ownership we must be kept informed who responsible party is. Fees are non refundable.

More about this rescue

Home Fur Good is a non profit no kill animal shelter located in the NE Valley. We take a majority of our cats and dogs from County, many who have treatable medical conditions and would otherwise be put down. We assess physical and behavior and work with the cats/dogs to find the best suitable match. It is our goal that each cat or dog that comes to our shelter ultimately be placed in their "furever" homes.

We also operate a low cost vaccine and microchip clinic each Sunday. We want to help community be able to care for and keep their animals safe. We do not charge vet fee only fee for vaccine and microchip. Additionally we have a low cost dental clinic each Wednesday. Check our website for more details.
