Thunder Labrador Retriever Tucson, AZ

This is Thunder, a 3 year old Lab mix who is only asking for a warm place to sleep in a home of his own.
Life started out a little rough as he had Corona. Yes, dogs do get it, but luckily he was given good food, lots of love and time to recover.
He weighs in at almost 60 lbs, but don't let that scare you as he is a gentle giant. His little friends like to bark at him and he ignores them.
He is crate trained and woo woo when his foster mom sings "Thunder Road" to him. It's his favorite!
All he wants for Christmas is his own home.

Filling out an application is the first step in the adoption process.
We don't always bring all animals to our adoption events so check ahead of time to make sure the animal you are interested in is still available. Some animals listed may already be promised.

Arizona Desert Rotti & Pals Rescue is a NO KILL rescue serving Tucson and the surrounding area.

We do adopt out of area under the right circumstances. If you are willing to travel to Tucson to meet us, and to personally transport your adopted pet home, we may be willing to work with you.

A home visit is usually required for the safety of our animals. We check the yard to make sure this little pup cannot escape, no predator can get in, and also look for hazardous plants.

At the end of the application, please include the type of fencing and the height of the fence you have around your yard.

If you're interested in Thunder or any of our dogs, please fill out a pre application at: http://www.azdesertrotti.com/html/to_adopt.htm
Once you have filled out the pre-adoption application, someone will contact you about the dog to answer your questions and tell you where our Sunday adoption event is held.

Our dogs are bathed, dewormed, vet checked, given their required shots, spayed or neutered, and microchipped.

Our rescues are homed with foster parents. They are fostered in homes so that we can tell you a little bit about their personalities, feeding schedule, habits, behavior, whether they get along with other dogs. We can tell you if they are crate trained, if they are leash trained and house trained. Most dogs need a refresher course on potty training when they go to a new home. They need to learn your routine, and it will be up to you to teach them.

Even the most abused animals can be wonderful pets. It takes patience, love and good food, along with fun and commitment to the animal. Fosters work with these animals. They are a part of our families, while we are lucky enough to have them.
