Remember me? I'm Jazzy!
I'm a 2.5-year-old girl and I've been looking for a home since April! I'm very scared in the shelter, so I can't wait to for my new family to find me and take me home!
I really need a home where I can be an indoor-only dog and get a lot of love. I'm hoping that I can also get daily exercise and maybe some fun doggy brain games!
If you're looking to rescue a dog I might be the perfect fit. Please come meet me at Humane Society of Southern Arizona Main Campus at 3450 N. Kelvin Blvd. or give them a call at 327-6088 ext. 173 for more information and to check on my availability!
Lots of love,
Jazzy (823242)

I'm a very special 10-month-old kitten and I need a home! What makes me special you ask? Check out my front paws! I have extra toes!
That's right, I'm a polydactyl cat!
In my previous home I really loved being around kids, I was very gentle and sweet to them. If your family is looking for a cat I might be perfect!
Contact the Humane Society of Southern Arizona Main Campus at 327-6088 ext. 173 to check on my availability and exact location!
Lots of love,

Hi, I'm Sawyer!
I'm a four year old boy and I'm looking for a new home! I was transferred to the Humane Society of Southern Arizona from a different shelter so they don't know a lot about my history. What they do know is that I love to play and I get along well with dogs!
If you're looking to add a playful dog to your home I might be the perfect fit! Contact HSSA Main Campus at 327-6088 ext. 173 to check on my availability and exact location!
Hope to see you soon!
Lots of love,

In the mood for a little nostalgia—and vodka? Plan to go to the '90s Bar Crawl this Saturday, Aug. 6.
The crawl will stop in at a plethora of downtown bars (Elliott's on Congress, Batch Cafe & Bar, Highwire Lounge, R Bar, Playground, O'Malley's, Borderlands Brewing Co., the Surly Wench, Maloney's, Che's Lounge, Mr. Heads, Sky Bar and the Hut), all of which will be blasting '90s tunes and giving out "goodies."
Registration starts at the Hut (305 N. 4th Avenue) at 6 p.m. The Bar Crawl itself will run fro 8 p.m. to midnight, followed by an afterparty at the Hut from midnight to 2 a.m.
Your $20 registration fee gets you food and drink specials, into the afterparty and goes (in part) to support Pima Paws for Life.
So work on your outfit (there's a costume contest) and dance moves (and a running man contest). Tickets are available online.

Put kitty litter and a box of dog treats on your grocery list because you're getting a new pet.
This Saturday, Aug. 6, Hermitage No Kill Cat Shelter, the Humane Society of Southern Arizona, Pima Paws for Life, and Pima Animal Care Center are participating in an Adopt, Don't Shop event.
The date of the adoption event matches up with the date SB 1248 takes effect. An "Adopt, Don't Shop" press release says:
“Adopt, Don’t Shop” day also marks the effective date of Arizona’s harmful pro-puppy mill law, SB 1248. The law will prohibit cities, towns and counties from enacting ordinances banning the sale of commercially raised dogs and cats in pet stores and will void ordinances in Phoenix and Tempe. Due to the law, a draft pet store ordinance in Tucson that was pending the outcome of a lawsuit against the City of Phoenix will no longer take effect.
The public can avoid supporting cruel puppy mills by never buying a puppy in a pet store. Most pet store puppies come from commercial breeding facilities that force animals to spend their entire breeding lives in cramped wire cages, to have minimal food and water, to be exposed to extreme temperatures for prolonged periods of time, and to be given only minimal veterinary, dental care and grooming. Other pet stores who sell dogs and cats sourced locally are likely paying unlicensed “back-yard” breeders to produce popular breeds so that they have stock year round. These puppies and kittens leave the stores unaltered, unlike shelter-sourced animals, which must be altered before leaving. This practice contributes to the homeless pet issue and the costs to taxpayers and rescues.

I'm a 3-year-old little girl who is very sweet and loves treats! I've been in the shelter for almost 4 months and I can't wait to be adopted. I listen really well and I really like to play. I need a lot of play time and snuggles in my new home.

I play really well with my kennel mate and am learning good manners here in the shelter.
