Simon is a handsome 5-year-old, 23-pound mixed-breed gentleman who's looking for a patient family to help him feel right at home.
Simon can be a little reserved when meeting new people or experiencing unfamiliar situations, but beneath that quiet exterior is a sweet dog who enjoys affection and loves spending time with his people. One look into his soulful eyes and you'll fall in love with this gentle boy. Give him a little time to settle in, and he'll gladly soak up pets and attention.
While toys aren't really Simon's thing, he does enjoy getting out for leisurely walks where he can explore the world at his own pace. He's happiest with a calm companion by his side and would love a home that appreciates his gentle, easygoing nature.
If you're looking for a loyal friend who doesn't need constant entertainment--just kindness, patience, and a few nice walks each day--Simon could be the perfect addition to your family.
To get started in the process of meeting Simon, please visit https://azfriends.org/testing/adopt.html to complete an adoption consultation form, and then come by the Adoption Center to meet with one of our adoption counselors.
No appointments are necessary and you can come and see us any time we are open. Please go to our website (www.azfriends.org) to fill out a consultation form then come and see us! We do require any family interested in meeting our dogs or cats to fill out a consultation form - this form helps us determine if the dog/cat and the home are a good match, since it is so easy to fall in love with a photo, without knowing the personality of the animal. Once you have filled out the online Adoption Consultation Form, just come in and see us (or come and see us and fill out the consultation form upon arrival)!
Please note that ALL dogs and cats are available to the first home that meets the dog or cat that we feel is a good match. In the event there is more than one home interested in the same animal, a lottery may be held that will include all families that are at our adoption center at the time we open the day the animal becomes available. In order to help make the best match, we do want all family members (dogs and humans) to meet any potential new family member.
Our adoption center hours are: Closed Sunday/Monday; Tuesday 10a-2p, Wednesday 3p-7p, Thursday 3p-7p, Friday 10a-2p, Saturday 10a-4p. We are located at 952 W Melody Avenue in Gilbert (zip code 85233).All animals are altered, vaccinated, microchipped, dewormed, licensed (dogs). Cats tested for FELV/FIV. Dogs tested for Heartworm. All animals are available to the first family that is a good match, and if we have more than one animal who is a good match, there will be a lottery for all matches. Note that families must have come in to our adoption center and spoken with an adoption counselor prior to any lottery (when we have lotteries, they usually occur on Saturday mornings).
