Terrier and Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption

Somewhere between a desert outlaw and a devoted pocket prince lives Groundhog... aka Phil.

Six pounds of classic Chihuahua charisma, Phil is 5 years old, neutered, and fully committed to being your tiny, spicy shadow. He may put on a little grumbly tough-guy routine at first (pure theatrics), but scoop him up and he melts-pressing his head into your neck like he's docking at home base. That's his favorite place: right on you.

Phil is wildly food motivated (training gold), rides beautifully in the car, and those radar-dish ears? Fully operational at all times. He does well with other dogs, enjoys a good game, and is more than willing to participate in tasteful dress-up should the occasion arise.

Devoted. Dramatic. Delightfully portable.
Phil is ready for his people-and he intends to be very, very close to them.

Groundhog is neutered and up-to-date on vaccines.

The adoption fee for this dog is $425 which includes routine vetting and spay/neuter.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.

The terrier is a spirited and intelligent dog breed known for its feisty personality and boundless energy.

With their loyalty and playful demeanor, terriers are beloved for their endless enthusiasm and affectionate nature.
