Puppy (5 months 19 days) · Male · American Bulldog / American Staffordshire Terrier / Mixed (short coat) · 8 mi from Guadalupe









Meet Ozzy, the lovable American Bulldog mix!
Personality: Ozzy is a fun-loving, affectionate puppy with a big personality. He’s eager to please and a total cuddle bug who will happily curl up in your lap after a day of adventures. Like any young pup, he’s full of energy and curiosity, and he loves long walks and playing with a variety of toys.

Meet sweet miss Lexi! She is a 9.5-year-old, 30-pound Soft-Coated Wheaten Terrier mix and a complete angel.

Personality & Home Life:
Read more about Lexi-Wheaten
- Activity Level: Lightly active and adapts nicely to the energy of the home. She loves walkies, playing fetch, running poolside acting like a "lifeguard" (though she isn't much of a swimmer), and hanging out with other dogs. Once she warms up to new people, she loves family bonding time and snuggling in bed.
- Compatibility: Great with other dogs and cats (kid compatibility is unknown). She would thrive with a dog sibling, as she recently lost her longtime companion, Boo.
- Routine & Habits: Potty pad and outdoor trained, kennels well if needed, and does great left alone in the house. She is good in the car and is a social eater who prefers to eat when others do.
Health & Care:
Lexi is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines. She has very few teeth left, so dental maintenance is minimal, and she eats both dry and soft food without an issue.
Adoption Requirements:
Lexi experiences some mild separation anxiety and needs an understanding owner who will give her time to adjust after recent life changes, helping her build coping skills with patience.
Lexi's adoption fee is $350, which directly helps our rescue cover medical expenses. Thank you for choosing to save a life by considering Lexi!
If you are looking for the perfect companion and have the love in your heart to help a little dog in need, please complete our online application at
helpadogsmile.org.
Her foster family will then reach out to you.

15. Rowan
Puppy (3 months 11 days) · Male · Labrador Retriever / Australian Shepherd / Mixed (short coat) · 8 mi from Guadalupe







Background: Rowan and his siblings came to rescue with their mom, Beans, from an overcrowded off-grid home in the desert. Their owner loved them deeply and reached out for help so each puppy could have the opportunity to find a wonderful forever family. Rowan has been loved and handled since birth and is growing up as a happy, well-socialized puppy.
Read more about Rowan
Personality: Rowan is the biggest snuggler of the bunch! While he enjoys puppy wrestling matches, chasing games, and carrying around his favorite toys, his favorite place is curled up next to his people. He's confident, affectionate, and always ready for both playtime and cuddle time. As the largest puppy in the litter, Rowan was also the first to embrace his "big boy" food.
Health: Rowan's estimated DOB is 7/22/26. Based on his current size, we expect him to mature to around 30 pounds. He is up-to-date on his puppy vaccines.
Training: As a young puppy, Rowan is still learning all the basics of being a great canine companion. He's currently using potty pads and is beginning to explore the dog door in his foster home. Like all puppies, he'll need continued work on house training, leash skills, socialization, and basic manners. Rowan is a smart, confident boy who will thrive with a family committed to providing the structure, consistency, and patience every puppy needs to grow into a wonderful adult dog.
Ideal Home: Rowan would love a home with a female dog who is a few years older than him. He will thrive with a family looking for an affectionate companion who enjoys both outdoor adventures and downtime. He requires a household that can provide plenty of playtime, socialization, and snuggles. As with any puppy, Rowan needs a family that understands the time, training, supervision, and socialization required during his first year.
Adoption Requirements: We are currently accepting applications for foster-to-adopt! Terms of a foster-to-adopt agreement include taking them for their remaining shots and spay/neuter surgery at PAWS - The Modern Spay Neuter Clinic (Cave Creek & 101).
• Week of 10/26: distemper/parvo booster, rabies, microchip, spay/neuter surgery
This appointment is fully covered by the rescue. Ownership transfers to the adopter immediately following the final appointment.
The adoption fee of $400 helps offset the cost of medical expenses. If you live in the Phoenix metro area, have a securely fenced yard, and are ready for all things puppy, please complete an adoption application*: https://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.

How to adopt from Rotten Rottie Rescue
Our Adoption Process... If you are interested in adopting one of our fun loving not so rotten rotties, you will be asked to fill out a questionnaire that will allows us to get to know you better and to make sure the dog you are looking at is a good fit for your family and lifestyle. You can access our questionnaire by going to our website, www.rottenrottie.com click on the forms tab, and fill out the questionnaire and submit it online. After we review your answers, if we feel that the dog that you are interested in, is not a good fit for you and your family, we may recommend a different rottweiler companion. After we determine which Rottweiler(s) is the best for you, we will set up a time so that you can meet him or her at their house, where they will feel most comfortable and act as they normally do. An adoption contract will be signed to finalize the adoption and we do ask for a rehoming fee of $400 for most adults, $250 for most of our seniors 6 years and above for any rottweiler mix of any age (except puppies) . Our fees for puppies fluctuate depending on how much we had to invest into them or their litter, and weather they are purebred or a mix. These funds are necessary so that our organization may continue to rehome rottweilers. ALL of our dogs are sterilized, fully vaccinated and microchipped, heartworm tested negative and come with a collar and a leash. We have also addressed any injury or illness that they had when they came to us, or received in foster care. These

Adopting a dog in Guadalupe
Most rescues ask you to fill in an application, meet the dog, and pay an adoption fee that usually covers spaying or neutering, vaccinations and a microchip. Many are foster-based, so you'll often meet your dog in a volunteer's home rather than a shelter.
Senior dogs are often the calmest companions and the slowest to find homes. If you'd like a settled, affectionate dog, ask the rescues about their older residents.
Puppies go quickly, so if you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon. Ask how big they're expected to grow, and plan for plenty of house-training and training in the first few months.
