Rescued as puppies. Raised in real homes. Ready for yours.
Pawizona is an Arizona dog rescue with a different approach. Instead of kennels, every dog lives with a foster family for months, learning manners, training and trust, so you meet a dog we actually know.
Ready For Adoption How We're Different
The Pawizona difference
Most puppies surrendered to shelters carry unknown history. We take that guesswork out.
Surrendered as puppies
Our dogs come to us young, before bad habits set in, so we can shape behavior early. Sometimes we just can't fix the issue but we try our best .
Foster homes, not kennels
Each dog lives in a family home for eight months to a year or more, working through training and any behavior issues one day at a time.
Trained before adoption
Basic commands, crate training and potty training are done before your dog ever comes home with you.
A dog whose story we know
Because every dog lives in a real home with us, we learn their personality, habits and needs, and we tell you honestly what to expect. No surprises with temperament or behavior after adoption.
- Basic commands: sit, stay, come, speak
- Crate training and potty training
- House manners and early behavior correction
- Spay/neuter and core vaccinations included
