A little bit about me … 

Hey everyone, I’m Pony Boy.  I’m a young, energetic guy who needs to find a new home.  I am a little shy when I first meet new people and furry friends, but with a little patience, I’ll be an amazing companion.  I will greatly benefit from gaining confidence through obedience training and lots of socialization with other dogs and new environments.  I’m the kind of guy that will love to spend all my time with my people, whether on a brisk morning walk, a trip to the park, or even Sunday brunch. So come by and say hi, and as always, stay golden!!   

I am shy at first
I am very agile and energetic
I need mental stimulation
I will most likely be a velcro dog
I need to be provided outlets for my energy
I like playing with friendly, respectful dogs

My Ideal Home Would Include …

I am young and rambunctious so I still need to learn how to behave in a household. You will have to teach me boundaries and what I can and can’t chew on. There are a lot of different types of nose and brain games that are inexpensive or even free that I can play with that will help exhaust me mentally.

I am young and have a lot of energy so daily walks are a must for me! I would be a great candidate for a dog park, or to accompany you when visiting with friends and family that have dogs in their home. Keeping me well socialized will help me become a well rounded and confident adult dog. 


*Please note that due to a high volume of interest in some of our animals, we may take multiple applications to ensure everyone gets a chance to apply and be interviewed. We dont do our adoptions on first come first serve basis, we instead focus on matchmaking to ensure the perfect match for both the animal and adopter. We are looking forward to working with you.

Please be advised we only adopt to AZ residents.  We make a commitment to all of our animals.  So while we appreciate your interest, we ask that you be a local resident to adopt.  We do not always know the full background of each animal and sometimes personalities are not fully shown until a few days in the home.  If for whatever reason you cannot keep the animal, we appreciate the animal being returned to our facility.  It is costly and time consuming to return an animal from out of state.  Please check your local animal shelter to find a forever friend near your area.
