My story

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

Kody is an adorable, bouncy, 10lb, 7-month-old Border Terrier mix!  

 

Background: Kody was found as a stray—can you believe someone would abandon this precious baby boy?  

Personality: Kody is a bundle of joy! He is a curious boy who likes to explore. He loves to play with toys and other dogs before napping in his foster parent’s lap, Kody loves to be with his people—at their feet, in their lap, you name it! He loves to cuddle and give kisses. He will take breaks to play with toys but happily returns to the lap where he came from.  

Health: Koday is neutered and has a microchip implanted.  He has received rabies, bordetella and the first set of distemper/parvo vaccines. The rescue will pay for his remaining puppy shots at our clinic. 

Training: As a young puppy, Kody is still learning the ropes. He is working on potty training in his foster home but will need continued training.

Ideal Home: Kody would thrive in just about any kind of home where he can get plenty of love and attention. He would do well with a family that has the time to continue his training and socialization. Kody gets along well with other dogs and gets excited when he sees children. He loves to run so a securely fenced in yard is a must.

 

Adoption Fee:   Kody’s adoption fee of $350 helps offset the cost of medical expenses as outlined above. If you live in the Phoenix metro area and think he could be the right fit for you, please complete an adoption application* at: https://www.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.
