Hendrix

Are you ready to rock and roll? Meet Hendrix, a handsome 11⁄2-year-old, 32-pound Terrier blend with boundless enthusiasm, impressive athleticism, and a personality that's sure to steal the show!<br/><br/>Hendrix is always ready for his next adventure! You'll find him eagerly waiting, hoping someone will invite him out for a little fun. This energetic youngster loves getting out and exploring, and while his initial excitement can have him pulling and zigzagging on leash, he's proving to be one smart cookie when it comes to learning better manners!<br/><br/>During a recent outing, Hendrix practiced walking politely on leash, waiting at doorways, and checking in with his handler. He frequently looked back for guidance and responded beautifully to training exercises, especially when rewarded with a little kibble and plenty of praise. He even knows how to sit and stay using both verbal commands and hand signals! His adorable, quizzical expressions while figuring things out are just icing on the cake. <br/><br/>And when it's playtime, Hendrix really knows how to put on a show! He's a big fan of soft, squeaky toys and loves showing off his agility and athletic abilities. Despite his enthusiasm, he's gentle with his toys and willingly shares them.<br/><br/>Hendrix is also a social fellow who enjoys meeting people. While he may occasionally get a little bouncy when treats are involved, he's perfectly capable of settling down to enjoy some affection and well-deserved pets.<br/><br/>Hendrix is a bright, eager-to-learn young dog who will thrive with an active family committed to continuing his training and providing plenty of opportunities for exercise, play, and mental stimulation. He's already demonstrated how responsive he can be with positive reinforcement, and his potential is exciting!<br/><br/>To get started in the process of meeting Hendrix, 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. <br/><br/>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)!<br/><br/>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. <br/><br/><br/>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).
