Remmi
County ID A5169789
Deadline: Tuesday, September 22.
Remmi is a two-year-old shepherd mix who showed up sick and has been fighting a respiratory infection for over a month now. Underneath the illness is a gentle, playful dog who waits patiently while you tie your shoes and comes back for one more round of affection.

What the shelter has seen
- Found as a stray in east Mesa, arrived at the shelter mid-August with a persistent respiratory illness that has kept him on the medical priority list.
- Handlers report he's affectionate and playful—leans in for pets, solicits attention, loves squeaky toys, plays fetch and tug, rolled over for belly rubs.
- Easy on leash, knows sit, calm beside handlers, good manners, ignored most dogs when walking past kennels.
- Not always interested in treats but consistently engaged with toys and people once he warms up, which happens quickly.
What Remmi needs
Remmi needs a foster who can continue his medical care and give him a quiet place to finish healing. He's on a medical deadline of September 22nd, so time matters.
Everything here comes from Remmi’s Maricopa County Animal Care and Control record. We leave out the parts that belong between the shelter, the rescue and the vet, and we do not soften what a dog needs. If something changes at the shelter, this page changes with it.
