The Arizona Animal Welfare League's Chandler Adoption Center has been the premier adoption location for dogs, cats, kittens, and puppies in the East Valley since 2012. The center replaced a former puppy mill store, and now rescues all animals from the local community and Rural Rescue partners, providing them with medical care and loving homes through adoption. Customers praise the amazing organization, with volunteer opportunities and a focus on educating the public. Adopters have had the joy of growing their families and are very grateful to the AAWL. The shelter is described as the best no-kill shelter, with healthy, well-cared-for pets available for adoption. Customers are happy to provide forever homes to these lovely animals, and encourage others to adopt, not shop.

I have loved this place ever since they opened at Chandler mall. They have great pet supplies, always take good care of their pets, and have exceptional customer care. This month, I was excited to get the chance to finally adopt a puppy from them and the process was very smooth. As a long time fan, I highly recommend AAWL
