Pet Adoption Opportunities in Wickenburg, AZ
At Hassayampa Veterinary Services, we believe every animal deserves a chance at a happy, healthy life. From time to time, we have pets available for adoption—loving animals who have been rescued by kind-hearted Good Samaritans or surrendered by owners facing difficult circumstances. Each adoptable pet receives a full veterinary exam, is spayed or neutered, and is kept up to date on vaccinations, so they’re ready to join a new forever family.
If you’re looking to open your heart and home to a pet in need, we’d love to hear from you. Please give us a call at (928) 684-3070 to learn more about our adoptable animals.
The Good Samaritan Fund
Some stories are harder than others—but with compassion and community support, we can help write a better ending.
The Good Samaritan Fund was created by our caring team to give injured, abandoned, or at-risk animals a fighting chance. Funded entirely by donations, this program helps cover the cost of medical treatment for pets that might otherwise be euthanized simply because no one could afford their care.
Dr. Ruisi generously donates her time and provides discounted services to stretch every dollar as far as possible. Every cent you give goes directly to the animals who need it most—no overhead, no red tape, just lifesaving care.
If you’d like to make a contribution (in any amount, anonymously or otherwise), know that your kindness truly makes a difference.
