Mariposa - Terrier and Shih Tzu Dog for Adoption in Phoenix, Arizona

Meet Mariposa! Mariposa is an approximately three-year-old, 11-pound Terrier mix, adoptable through Chi Town Rescue. This beautiful social butterfly is one of the friendliest little dogs you'll meet! Mariposa LOVES life and is happy to share her joy with you. She enjoys attention and pets and will curl up on your lap for snuggle time. Mariposa is social with other dogs and would love to meet your dog from home; bring them in for an intro. Mariposa came to Chi Town from Huesitos Rescue in Hermosillo, Mexico. Adopters in that area are scarce, but dogs are plentiful, so we have a partnership with this rescue where we help take in some dogs when they are over-crowded. A portion of each dog's adoption fee goes directly to that rescue. Mariposa's $375 adoption fee includes spay surgery, vaccinations up to date, and microchip.
