Lycan found his people!

After four weeks with us, Lycan finally got to pose for the picture we love most, the one with his new family.

We’re not sure who looks happier in this photo, but Lycan seems pretty confident he made an excellent choice.

He’s got people to love him, a whole life ahead of him, and most importantly, several laps to choose from.

Have the BEST life, little man. Now go grow up and cause just the appropriate amount of puppy trouble.

WE’VE TOLD YOU ABOUT THE PUPPIES… BUT HAVE YOU MET THEM?

Have you swung by the shelter and said hello?

We don’t think so! Because honestly, there’s no way you’d be able to walk away from these little faces!

That’s right, Axton, Oliver, and Eeyore are STILL waiting for their forever families. And if you ask us, 15 weeks is way too long for puppies to be waiting in a shelter!

If you’ve been thinking about adding a young pup to your family, now is the time to come meet them.

They won’t be puppies forever, so don’t risk missing out on this fun stage, complete with goofiness, puppy zoomies, and plenty of puppy kisses!

Come meet Axton, Oliver, and Eeyore and let one of these little faces steal your heart!💘

Can't adopt right now? That's okay, we understand, but you can still help!

👉 Share this post! You never know who in your circle might be looking for their new best friend. Your share could be the one thing that helps a puppy find their forever home!

It only takes a second, but it could make all the difference for Axton, Oliver, and Eeyore

TEENSY HAS NOT YET BEEN INFORMED THAT SHE IS A LARGE DOG.

We’ve tried.

She’s 7 months old and 65 pounds, but in Teensy’s mind she’s approximately 12 pounds and extremely graceful.

Neither is accurate.

She’s a shy Cane Corso girl who likes a little time to warm up. Once she does, you’ll meet a sweet, playful goofball who is still learning where all four of her feet are located.

She loves her pool, loves to play, and occasionally discovers that stopping a 65-pound puppy requires more advance planning than anticipated.

Furniture may move.

Water may leave the pool.

Teensy may look surprised by both.

She’s still growing, too, and could top 90 pounds, so she needs a family ready for training, socialization and helping this oversized toddler become an amazing grown-up dog.

Current skill level:

Swimming pool: 10/10
Being adorable: 12/10
Spatial awareness: Pending
Understanding the word “Teensy”: Suspicious
Knowing her own size: Absolutely not

Ready for 65 pounds of puppy with another 25+ pounds currently loading?

Call 928-634-7387.

A bigger pool may eventually be required.

ZEVVERS HAD PLANS.

Apparently, those plans did not include hanging around here one minute longer than necessary.

The paperwork was signed, the photo was taken, kind of, and Zevvers was basically like, “Great. Love you guys. Where’s the car?”

No long goodbyes. No looking back. Just one very handsome tabby with places to be and a brand-new home waiting for him.

Zevvers has left the building, and judging by that tail, he could NOT wait to get home.

Happy adoption, Zevvers! Go enjoy the good life. You’ve got a family waiting.

Hi, I’m Butch!

I’ve been at the shelter for a while now, and I’m still waiting for the day I get to meet my forever family.

I’m hoping someone out there will see me and realize I could be the companion they’ve been looking for.

🇺🇸 Here’s something special about me: I’m eligible for the Pets for Patriots program, which connects eligible military members with shelter pets looking for loving homes.

Could you be my person?
If you’re a military member, take a moment to find out if you qualify for Pets for Patriots, you might just find your new best friend has been waiting for you at Verde Valley Humane Society.

OFFICIAL CHANGE OF OWNERSHIP

Tank has made a decision.
He has acquired a human.

Tank does not get adopted. Tank conducts interviews, evaluates living arrangements, and selects qualified household staff.

And apparently… this guy passed.

Because sometimes the right person doesn't look for perfect. They look at the whole package, the quirks, the character, the history, and all, and think, “Yep. That's my cat.”

So Tank packed up his considerable amount of Tank, his ongoing disagreement with the concept of “diet food,” and approximately 847 opinions about how a household should be run.

His new employee looks absolutely thrilled.

Tank looks… satisfied.

Which, for Tank, is basically a five-star review.

Congratulations, Tank.

May your new kingdom have comfortable furniture, properly timed meals, and a human who understands that the organizational chart has exactly one name at the top. TANK.
