To ensure the safety of our staff and community, the Arizona Animal Welfare League will be instituting an appointment based adoption program on select days.

We have a lot of amazing animals looking for homes, follow the simple process below to meet them!

1. View our available Dogs and Cats looking for their new wonderful homes!

*If the dog you are choosing to meet is listed as a "Must Meet" on their website profile and you have a dog(s) in the home, you must bring them to the shelter for a meet and greet.

2. Please complete the Matchmaker Guide for the correct location to find the best match for your family or lifestyle. If the animal's profile above states they are at the Chandler Adoption center, please fill out the Chandler Matchmaker guides. If the profile does not state they are at the Chandler Location, please select the Main Shelter Matchmaker guides.
