We anticipate receiving additional hounds from Australia in the Fall. Although it doesn’t happen often, we never know when hounds might be rejoin the Arizona Heartfelt Hounds family and need new homes.
Please follow up on Facebook to stay up to date on our Hounds.
Several weeks ago Arizona Heartfelt Hounds was notified about a sighthound mix in Globe that an owner wanted to surrender. Unfortunately, we were not able to take him in. However a wonderful good Samaritan stepped up and picked him up. We are posting their availability as a courtesy to help them find their forever homes.
Please email Deb, Pogo’s Foster Mom, at [email protected] for general questions. Potential adopters must complete an adoption application, home visit, and adoption contract. Potential families are welcome to visit multiple times after adoption application and ongoing support is included if desireed.

Pogo (for his vertical pogo-ing skills) is MR. ENTHUSIASM! He is VERY EXCITED about everything right now. This handsome boy is so happy for attention, and just being indoors after being chained out in a pasture, that he doesn’t know how to manage his joy at the prospect of being a house dog!
Pogo is a younger adult, at 2-3 years old. This bounding athletic face-kisser is super outgoing. He barks in the backyard at strange sights and sounds, including his foster mom’s tortoise, so is an effective watchdog. He is way too friendly for any guardian role. He will join in with neighborhood coyotes or sirens for a short roooooo. Dog savvy teens would be ideal playmates, though kids under ten could be bowled over by this black and white rocket, aka 60 pounds of pure joy. Bonus! Pogo crates well overnight with no accidents, walks and recalls to sit well on leash, and enters and rides very nicely in the car.
This flashy “Diamond in the Rough”, is recommended to previous dog owners with skills to enhance his training and whose active lifestyle already includes deliberate exercise. Obedience class would enhance his place in an active and loving home. This goofy, affectionate boy MUST have two daily walks daily along with outdoor play “Zoomies”.
Pogo was neutered, microchipped, and has rabies and DHPP shots. His adoption fee is $425. Apply directly for Pogo to his foster mom, Deb, at [email protected] for general questions.
Adoption application, home check, and adoption contract are required. Bonus… ongoing support if needed!
We have a waiting list for Greyhounds. We have 4 retired racers from Australia coming in January 2023, but we believe they are all spoken for.
Please check back often… we do have hounds that return to us from time to time. We like to get dogs that are use to being in homes placed with a Foster Family or in a new home quickly. We don’t place hounds on a first come/first served basis… we will continue to match each hound with the best adopter and the best home.
We are hoping to receive Lurchers from the American Lurcher Project in Ohio in 2023!
Check back again soon…
WE ANTICIPATE RECEIVING MORE HOUND MIXES, BUT WE DON’T KNOW WHEN.
Typically we don’t have much lead time when we receive hound mixes.
Check back again soon…
