Are you from the state of Arizona and looking for an Arizona pet rescue? There are several Arizona pet rescue organizations listed on the Internet that have animals for adoption. Rescue at www.azrescue.org is a non-profit organization that is located in Phoenix, AZ and has been in operation since 1995. Rescue does not have a central facility but instead relies on volunteer foster families to care for the dogs and cats in its care until an appropriate permanent adoptee can be found. The Arizona pet Rescue organization concentrates its efforts on rescuing the animals that are on the euthanasia list of the local county shelters. Since 1995 Rescue has found permanent homes for over 8,800 dogs and cats. Rescue has a unique Matchmaking Service that works to pair up each rescued animal with the most appropriate adoptee. This service has greatly cut down the recidivism rate of adopted animals from the national average of 50% to a very low 8%. You can view the Arizona pet Rescue adoptable animals on the Rescue website.
