SHADOW - German Shepherd Dog and Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Phoenix, Arizona

Why I'd make a great companion: ~Hello! My name is Shadow and I weigh 31 LBS! ~I may not be the one who runs up to say hello first, but give me a little time and you'll discover a loyal, gentle soul who's worth the wait. ~Come on down and meet me today! Type of home I'm looking for: ~Someone who will celebrate the little victories, respect my boundaries, and cheer me on as my confidence blossoms. ~My adoption fee is: free thanks to a special anonymous donor and adopter who has generously offered to sponsor adoption fees for black pets in memory of AHS alum, Jean Valjean, who sadly passed away from cancer. Jean was found as an injured stray in 2018 and brought to the Arizona Humane Society where he was treated for wounds and corneal scarring. He spent his remaining golden years of life with his loving family in Phoenix.
