Dogs for Adoption in Surprise, AZ: 30 Dogs Looking for a Home

Say hello to Chickpea! Chickpea is an approximately one-year-old, nine-pound Terrier mix, adoptable through Chi Town Rescue in Phx., Az. When Chickpea first came to the shelter from her former home, she was extremely fearful and wouldn't allow us to pet her without running away or nipping at us. Chickpea has been at the rescue about two months and has made enough progress that we are comfortable listing her for foster or adoption. That said, Chickpea is still fearful with new people and will need a family willing to go slow and let her progress on her own time. Chickpea needs a home with no young children, and a home with a secure yard that she can access for playtime/potty-time.

Meet Linda! A little girl who is finally learning what love feels like.

For the first 1–2 years of her life, Linda was nothing more than a matted yard dog. She never received the love, attention, or companionship that every dog deserves. But now that she’s discovered what it feels like to be loved, she just can’t get enough!

Linda becomes incredibly attached to her person. She wants to be close, soak up every bit of attention, and finally have someone to call her own. She has so much love to give and is just waiting for someone to give that love back.

Hi my name is Stewart, I am very sweet boy who loves to chase balls and cuddle under blankets. I'm about 2 years old and I’m friendly with dogs, cats and birds. I get a little protective of people so I might do better with kids that are a little older and will understand that I need a minute. I don’t shed and have a really amazing Mohawk that matches my feet hair I absolutely love toys and to play fetch. I can jump really high, and over gates but I don’t chew on anything in the house.

I am looking for my forever family and would love to meet you. Please fill out an application on www.communitypaws.org if you would like to meet me.

Griffey is a happy 4 year old male English Bulldog mix. He is house trained, crate trained and is an easy dog to be around. He looks a little goofy but has a huge heart and just wants to hang out with his people. He is respectful and does not roam the house, jump on furniture or go places he knows he is not supposed to venture to. He loves his food and taking golf cart rides. He is good with other dogs and likes children. Griffey is smart and has learned several commands with his foster mom. He does have allergies that are typical of the bulldog breeds and is on special food for those. He is currently with a foster family and is looking for his forever home. Please consider Griffey as an addition to your family.

This sweet girl is on the smaller side with a shorter body, but her personality is larger than life! She is a happy, playful puppy who loves everyone she meets and absolutely adores other dogs. Ramen is everything you could hope for in a puppy: joyful, loving, fun, and ready to fill someone’s life with happiness. All she wants is a family to call her own, a warm bed to sleep in, loving arms to cuddle her, and someone who will promise to love her for the rest of her life. She deserves to grow up knowing what it feels like to truly belong and to never have to wonder where she will sleep or who will love her tomorrow. Could you be the person who gives Ramen the forever home she dreams of? Her adoption fee is $250 and includes her spay, vaccinations, and microchip. Please call or text 602-908-6215 to meet this sweet girl and give her the loving home she deserves.

Meet Sully, a handsome black Cane Corso boy, approximately 8 months to 1 year old, with a heart of gold! ❤️

Despite his rough start, Sully is an incredibly sweet, social, dog-friendly, and people-loving boy who just wants to please and be loved!
He LOVES playgroup, especially chasing his buddies Diamond and Beauty around the yard. His favorite game is King of the Mountain, where he gets all his friends to chase him! And when playtime is over, he’s always ready for cuddles.
When Sully first arrived, he was terrified to go outside and wanted to run straight back to his kennel.

But look at her now! ❤️ She’s gaining weight, thriving, and showing us what an absolute sweetheart she is!
And we’ve discovered something wonderful about Zuri — she absolutely LOVES children! She’s also dog friendly and enjoys having four-legged friends.
Zuri is a petite little fawn Corso mix, definitely on the smaller side, which makes her even more adorable!
We would absolutely LOVE to find Zuri a family with children to love and spoil her.

Not only is Buster allowing us to pet him, he will even nudge us if we stop AND offer us his paw to hold (it's the cutest thing!).

MEET MEATBALL — YES, THE NAME FITS.

Meatball is exactly what you would expect from a dog named Meatball: big, goofy, handsome, slightly ridiculous, and completely lovable.

This sweet meathead is actually more of a calm, mellow guy. He isn’t looking to run a marathon or solve complicated problems. His goals in life are pretty simple:

Eat good snacks.
Hang out with his people.
Play with a pretty girl dog.
Take a nap.
Repeat.

Meatball loves female dogs and would be happiest in a home with a large-breed female buddy he can romp around with. We haven’t tested him with male dogs yet.

Mabel came into the shelter as a stray with no one to call her own. But instead of letting that change her, she quickly became a volunteer favorite because of her happy, playful, social personality.

This sweet 3-year-old girl has so much going for her.

Very dog social

Good with cats

House trained

Crate trained

Best with kids 5+

Working on her leash manners

Mabel is the kind of dog who just wants to be part of a family. She wants someone to play with, someone to cuddle with, and a home where she knows she belongs.

She has already spent enough time wondering where her people are.

My name is Syracuse, and I’m a handsome male Cane Corso under a year old

Unfortunately, my owners abandoned me, and I suddenly found myself sitting in a scary shelter wondering what happened to my family and everything I knew.

Syracuse absolutely loves people and thrives on human interaction. He enjoys attention, learning new things, and spending time with his people. He's dog friendly too!

MEET HAROLD — BIG PUMPKIN HEAD ALERT! ❤️

My name is Harold, and I’m a stunning 2-year-old English Mastiff with a giant pumpkin head and the personality to match.

I am pretty much the epitome of a lazy English Mastiff. My dream life? Give me a comfy couch, a soft bed, some good snacks, and my people nearby, and I’m one happy boy.

I’m people friendly and dog friendly, and I could live with kids over the age of 6. I’m a big, strong Mastiff boy, though, so little humans can easily get knocked over by my oversized self.

Now… we need to talk about my leash manners.

Goliath is a stunning 2-year-old apricot English Mastiff and one BIG, beautiful boy!

We’re still getting to know this handsome guy, but so far we know he absolutely loves every person he meets. He’s a sweet, affectionate boy with that wonderful Mastiff personality.

Goliath appears to be dog friendly with female dogs, and we’ll continue evaluating him as he settles in.

Car rides are not his favorite. He gets pretty stressed and nervous in the car, so we’re working on helping him become more comfortable.

We’re also working on his leash manners—and when you’re dealing with a giant English Mastiff, good leash manners are definitely important!

My name is Bruce, and I’m about 3 years old. I’m a pretty calm, mellow guy who is just looking for a family to call my own.

What breed am I? Well… that’s still up for debate!
Cane Corso? Boerboel? Mastiff? Bullsomething.... A little bit of everything?

Whatever I am, one thing is for sure — I’m pure sweetness.

I’m house trained and crate trained, and overall, I’m just a really good boy. I don’t need to be the center of constant excitement. I’m perfectly happy hanging out with my people, relaxing, and enjoying the good life.

Since coming into rescue, I’ve also discovered something very important…

TREATS!

Meet Annabelle, a sweet young girl with a little wobble and so much love to give.

At approximately 1 year old and 49 pounds, Annabelle has already experienced too much uncertainty. Born in a shelter, she has lost two homes and is now waiting in a boarding facility for someone who will give her the lasting love and stability she deserves.

Asha is a very sweet and fun girl! This young est. 6 month old bully mix comes from a very abusive home and is learning about being a dog. She is still learning leash skills, dog interaction skills, and cat interaction skills. She discovered toys and playtime. She is house trained with a schedule and routine. She is good with my dogs and cats but plays rough with cats. She grew up with five cats in her original home but believes she is the size of a cat and plays a bit rough – I do not allow her to interact with my cats without supervision. She is kennel trained. She loves to snuggle. We are still working on bringing the toys back when playing fetch and her playtime is exuberant.

Meet Snoopy & Lucy — proof that true love has no boundaries. ❤️

These two were found running the streets of Phoenix together in the brutal summer heat. Somehow, through all of that, they had each other.

Now, I’m not one to call every pair of dogs that comes in together a “bonded pair.” Snoopy and Lucy actually do just fine when they’re separated. They don’t need each other.

But do they love each other? Absolutely.

They are best friends. He loves her. She loves him. Watching them together is ridiculously sweet, and there’s something special about the friendship these two have formed.

Both are around 2 years old and sweet as can be.

MEET LUCIUS!

Hi! My name is Lucius, and I am one BIG baby!

I’m a 9-month-old Great Dane/Mastiff mix, already weighing over 100 pounds, so there’s a very good chance I still have some growing to do!

I am:

House trained
Very friendly
Great with other dogs, including little dogs
Good with children of all ages
Playful, goofy and affectionate
A professional toy inspector

In my new home, I must have at least one or two other dogs to play with. I’m still a little under-socialized, and I really gain my confidence from other dogs. Having canine buddies around helps me feel safe, learn the ropes and come out of my shell.
