Dog surrendered last Christmas Eve finds new home for the holidays

PHOENIX – A Valley dog was on the nice list this year.

Two-year-old Monkey was surrendered to a rescue that the Arizona Animal Welfare League works with on Christmas Eve last year. In July, he was transferred to the AAWL, but now he has found a new home for the holidays.

The shelter staff even helped Monkey write a letter to Santa in hopes of finding his new home.

During the shelter’s “Home Fur the Holidays” event, a family adopted Monkey, and his friend Cookie as well.

There were almost 100 cats and dogs that found homes during the weekend’s event.
