✨ Foster Feature ✨
How do you prefer Jenny? Extra cuddly, strapped in for an adventure, or tucked in like a turkey on Thanksgiving Day? 🤔 Personally, we prefer her adopted! After coming in weighing only 24 pounds, she's doubled in weight and is happily waiting for her furever best friend in her foster home.
"Jenny is a great dog to come home to as she greets you with butt wiggles, kisses, and tiny happy nibbles. She is always up for a car ride to do errands, sunbathing on the patio (turn her over for an even bake), playing with her toys, or just lying next to you as you catch up on favorite TV shows (don’t forget to give her belly rubs). Jenny is ready for you to be her loyal cuddle buddy for life."
Jenny is a true lovebug waiting for her chance to shine. Go get her! Email [email protected] to set up a meet-and-greet: https://apps.pets.maricopa.gov/adoptPets/Home/Details/A5161806

Read to a shelter dog this summer! ☀️ We’re inviting kids to visit the East shelter as part of Maricopa County Library District's Summer Reading Program. Children will be able to develop their book smarts while helping shelter dogs feel calm, comforted, and enriched.
Participants must be enrolled in the County Library Reading Program, and sign-ups are required to reserve a spot. Parent or guardian (18 years or older) must accompany each child. For more information, visit https://www.maricopa.gov/m/newsflash/home/detail/3688.
