My story

Ernie is a five-year-old, 17-pound Chihuahua mix who is discovering the joys of a new life. He and his brother, Ernie, came to us after living outdoors their entire lives. Before arriving here, Ernie had never been on a walk, slept in a cozy bed, or even visited a vet. Despite such a rough start, he has shown a gentle spirit and a willingness to learn. At first, Ernie can be timid, but with kindness and patience, his sweet and affectionate nature begins to shine through. He is already learning to walk on a leash and, while not fully confident yet, he’s making progress every day. Ernie especially enjoys the comfort of his soft kennel bed, a simple luxury he never knew before. Ernie will do best in an enriching, supportive environment where he can continue to gain confidence. He can be adopted with Bert or on his own; if together, they should be separated at mealtimes. With love, structure, and patience, Ernie will blossom into the wonderful companion he was meant to be. Ernie’s adoption fee of $250 covers essential services such as spaying/neutering, vaccinations, microchipping, and a complimentary wellness visit at Phoenix Mountain Animal Hospital. Please don't hesitate to schedule an appointment to meet Ernie by calling 602-971-1334. You can also visit us Thursday through Saturday from 11:00 am to 4:00 pm when we are open for walk-ins.

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Ernie, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
