Dogs for Adoption in Sun Lakes, AZ: 20 Dogs Looking for a Home

Dudley is a sweet, affectionate, and very playful boy with a lot of personality and energy. He loves attention, playing with his toys, being outside, going for walks, and especially playing with other dogs. He really loves having someone to play with. He can be pretty enthusiastic during playtime, so another playful dog who can match his energy would be a great match. He is good with adults and elementary aged children on a leash, but he has not been testing with children in a home. He is housetrained, uses a doggy door, and knows basic commands. He does fairly well on a leash, but he still pulls at times, especially when he's excited about going for a walk. He is a typical young Husky who is curious, energetic, and always looking for something to do.

Dudley has some separation anxiety, particularly when he is left alone crated. This is improving, and he has a prescription for trazodone to help when he needs to be crated for extended periods of time. He also has enamel hypoplasia which affects the enamel on his teeth. He received a dental treatment, including bonding, in August 2026. Dudley's current owner is unable to give him the exercise and attention he needs and is heartbroken to have to find him a new home. Dudley would thrive in a home with a fenced yard, plenty of exercise, attention, and companionship. A bonus would be a similarly energetic pet sibling too. Meet Dudley today!

Buck is a handsome puppy that is always full of energy as most puppies are. He is always excited to see you or meet new dogs. He loves to go on walks and runs which is a great way to tire him out.

Sometimes he will bark loudly when he doesn't want to be in the crate, but that only lasts a few minutes before he settles in. Buck was found as a stray in poor condition. He deserves a loving and safe home with people who want to give him the best life he deserves. Meet Buck today!

Luna was rescued from a backyard breeder in 2021 and has been a cherished member of her family ever since. She has experienced quite a few changes over the years, including multiple moves, living in an RV, a new baby, and a difficult divorce, yet she has continued to be an incredibly loving and loyal companion. Her family has worked hard with her, including completing PetSmart's beginner, intermediate, and advanced training classes.

Luna's personality

Luna is sweet, gentle, affectionate, playful, funny, and incredibly loyal. Despite being a Husky, she is surprisingly calm and relaxed inside the home. Her favorite things include sunbathing, going for walks, napping near her people, and simply being close to her family.

She is house-trained, crate-trained, leash-trained, and sleeps peacefully through the night. She is also not destructive and does not typically chew furniture or household items. She can comfortably stay home while her family is away and settles nicely once everyone leaves.

Luna loves other dogs and enjoys playing at the dog park. A calm, friendly canine companion could be wonderful for her, especially because Luna is also a big fan of relaxing and taking naps with her dog friends.

Luna does become anxious in doggy daycare and is not a good candidate for that environment due to a previous traumatic experience with another dog. She is happiest having a predictable routine and relaxing at home with her people.

Kids, cats & other animals

Luna can tolerate children but would ideally do best in a home without young children or with older, dog-savvy children who understand how to interact respectfully with a dog.

She does well with cats and knows how to play appropriately with them. However, Luna does have a prey drive, so she should not live with small or exotic animals.

Luna's ideal home

Luna is looking for someone who understands and appreciates Huskies and preferably has experience with Huskies or other large dogs. She needs a stable, loving home where her person will be committed to her for the rest of her life.

She does not need constant entertainment. A daily morning walk, regular opportunities to get out and explore, and plenty of time relaxing with her people have been a great routine for her.

Luna does have ongoing medical needs and requires a limited-ingredient diet and daily medication. More information about her medical care will be provided to serious potential adopters.

More than just a pet

Luna has been so much more than a dog to her family. For the past three years, she has served as a seizure-alert service dog and has alerted her person to multiple seizures. She has also helped her family through difficult moments, including assisting her owner's mother after she broke her wrist.

She and her family have truly been there for one another, and finding her the right home is incredibly important. Her family is heartbroken to say goodbye, but wants to make sure Luna has the stable, comfortable life she deserves rather than putting her in a shelter.

This will not be a quick or first-come, first-served adoption. Luna's family would like to meet potential adopters and have two or three meetings so everyone can get to know one another and make sure it is the right fit. A rehoming fee will apply.

Luna is currently in Phoenix, Arizona.

If you or someone you personally know and trust may be the perfect match for Luna, please send a message. Her family is happy to answer questions, provide additional photos and videos, and arrange a meet-and-greet.

Mina loves playing with other dogs and would likely enjoy having a canine companion in her new home. She enjoys toys, but soccer balls are her favorite! She will also fetch smaller toy balls and surprise you with random bursts of adorable zoomies. Mina appears to enjoy water, especially sprinklers and the hose, and may even discover that she likes swimming someday.

Mina spent much of her early life confined to a crate, so being crated is understandably difficult for her. She is now discovering how wonderful it is to explore, exercise, play, and simply enjoy being a puppy. Her future family should be prepared to patiently help her build confidence and create positive associations with being safely left alone. Mina deserves a loving home with the time, patience, and energy to help her continue learning and growing. In return, she will bring her family endless affection, joyful playtime, and plenty of puppy kisses!

Momma Dog is an amazing, approximately 4-year-old girl who has been loved as part of a family for the past three years.

Sadie would do best as the only pet in the home, as she does not get along with cats or other dogs. Her experience with children is unknown, so a home without young children or with careful introductions may be best.
