This section of the web page proudly presents all the fosters who have been blessed with loving families. A heart felt thank you to all those who have given our former fosters the love and life they deserve. It is you who make what we do worth the many hours of rotations and feedings, medical care and weekend hours up at the pet stores.

I started this non-profit animal rescue (501(c)(3)) in March of 2004 after working with several rescue/adoption groups over the last few years and being told that I could not pick up dogs off the street or that there were certain breeds that I could not rescue from the Animal Care and Control Center (The Pound) because of their breed.
If an animal is on the street, it needs help now!
Furthermore, I believe that all animals deserve a life and a good home regardless of breed.
I've been told I'm everything from angry to undiplomatic. Angry? You're damn right I'm angry!! On an average, there is over two thousand animals euthanized (murdered) EVERY WEEK in Maricopa County alone. If this were 1942, the world would react. Yet, we can't even get the state to address this. This atrocity is nothing less than genocide. Undiplomatic? Diplomacy does not seem to be working.
Oddly enough that's why I chose Robin Hood as the name for my animal rescue group. And that's why my motto is, "We don't have a friar, but we give a tuck about everyone."
To put an end to this atrocity, please spay or neuter your pet, put a collar with a tag (address, phone number, etc.) on your pet, microchip your pet or become a foster or adopt a pet from any of the animal rescue groups or animal control facilities in the Valley.
We have a good selection of adoptable family members to choose from. With each one that finds a new family, another finds it's way to my door. Can you find it in your heart to somehow help these forgotten angels? If so please contact me at (623) 931-7499.
If you are involved with the education of children, we ask that you allow us to visit your school to further educate the children on being responsible pet owners. One of our goals is to teach the public how to take better care of a pet. And there is no better place to start then with children. In turn they will teach others.
Robert Spangler, Director
We all here at Robin Hood Animal Rescue thank you for also caring about these wonderful pets who deserve a loving family.
Here's how you do it:
We here at Robin Hood Animal Rescue believe that dogs and cats are to be loved as you would a child. They are so much like children. The unconditional love they have for us is beyond comparison. They are so much more than a watch dog, mouse catcher or a family pet to keep outside.
If you believe the same as we do, please check out our wonderful fosters. Perhaps, that special one to fill your heart is waiting for you.
If you don't happen to see the kind of family member you are searching for, please call us at (623) 931-7499 or (623) 262-4099. Sometimes we get behind with updating the list, and we may not have had a chance yet to add that special one for you.
If you see a possible addition to your family you can call (623) 680-1170 after 4:00 PM on the weekdays or stop by and visit us at the Petsmart at Metrocenter on Saturday and on the first, third and fifth Sundays; and, Petco at the Loop 101 and Northern on the second and fourth Sundays.
Our core adoption hours are 12:00 PM. to 6:00 PM. But the times may vary given that we might be detained. Please call (623) 680-1170 to verify the times.
OUR ADOPTION FEE FOR DOGS/PUPPIES IS $130.00.
This helps cover the medical costs (spay/neuter and shots) and the AVID microchipping.
OUR ADOPTION FEE FOR CATS/KITTENS IS $ 75.00.
This helps cover medical costs(spay/neuter and shots), AVID microchipping and FIV/leukemia testing.
If you have fallen for one of our beautiful foster children, there will be questions asked for a better understanding of the new life for both our foster child and adopting family. A Robin Hood Animal Rescue contract as well as a Petsmart or Petco adoption form will then be filled out.
We deeply care for each of our foster children so expect us to contract you now and then to make sure that everything is going well for both four legged and two legged family members. We hope that you will be touched by them as we have.
Thank-you for assisting us in giving a new (and better) life to these so very well deserving four legged children who have been discarded given the ignorance, laziness and stupidity of others.
Please come and see the wonderful dogs and cats that we have. Please check for the stores, days and times above.
WE HAVE SO MANY WONDERFUL DOGS AND CATS WAITING TO BELONG TO THAT SPECIAL FAMILY.
To give you an idea: We have young and older. We have long and short hair. We have big, not so big, and small. We have dogs who need a bit of understanding and training to make them the perfect family member. We have dogs who are perfect just the way they are. We have cats with big cat attitudes and cats with not so big cat attitudes.

So that we may continue to BOW WOW you we now have the services of Pay Pal. For donations, please click on the button below. We all thank you.
Or if you prefer, you can donate through the igive.com and isearchigive.com services.
You shop. You search. Our fosters benefit. Again, thanks from all of us.
Please remember that dogs need to learn how we humans prefer to have them behave. We recommend that all dogs be trained. If not for your sanity, for their protection. Dogs need to learn when to sit, stay and come. And they can learn. We know of two individuals who have dedicated much of their lives to helping dogs and their owners live together in harmony.
