At West Valley Animal Rescue, we do things a bit differently. While many rescues take days to respond or never reply at all, we move fast. The application (link below) is the first step and helps us confirm that you and your household are a great fit. Once you submit it, text us right away. We’ll review it quickly, and if approved, we can often schedule a same-day adoption appointment so dogs spend less time waiting and more time loved. https://www.westvalleyanimalrescue.com/app 💛 Meet Oso 💛 A gentle little soul who just needs a little time and a lot of love. Oso is a sweet but very shy terrier with a tender heart and a quiet nature. He is the kind of dog who forms deep bonds with his people once he feels safe, and he truly blossoms when given patience and kindness. Oso will do best in a calm, quiet home that can move at his pace and give him the time he needs to come out of his shell. Once he trusts you, he absolutely melts for gentle ear scratches and soft affection. He did excellent at the groomer, showing just how well he can handle new experiences when supported, and he reliably uses the dog door in his foster home. For someone willing to give him a little extra understanding at the start, Oso will reward you with loyal companionship and a very special kind of love. Oso’s adoption donation includes his age-appropriate vaccinations, deworming, neuter, microchip, collar, 30 days of complimentary pet insurance and a Fi Mini tracker with a 6 month membership. Apply below to adopt Oso. We are a foster-based rescue with homes mainly in Goodyear and Buckeye. If approved, you’ll meet a volunteer or foster family at a local pet store we partner with or at a foster home for adoption. The address will be shared once your appointment is scheduled. Breed and age are estimated and not guaranteed. Please see our website’s FAQs for more information.
