The Aryan Molossus
Once a Warrior, Today a Loyal Companion and a Family-Protector
Should you ever decide that you need a big dog, with an imposing posture, which can look threatening and majestic at the same time, the Aryan Molossus is definitely one breed that you must take into consideration.
The Armant
The Egyptian Dog with a Lot of Love to Give
To some of you, the Armant is better known as the “Egyptian Sheepdog” and, just as the name suggests it, it was bred to be a herding dog. However, in ancient times, it was used mostly as a guard dog. This breed is originally from Egypt and named after the town of Armant. Its loyalty and agility are the two main characteristics which make this dog special.
The Atlas Terrier
The Small Dog With a Massive Dose of Energy
At a glimpse, the Atlas Terrier can be easily mistaken with the Jack Russell Terrier. However, there are some differences that may help you tell these two cousins apart. Before deciding to buy or adopt a dog of this breed, there are some things that you have to take into consideration. Unfortunately, this is quite a rare breed of dogs in our days.
Anglos-Francaises de Petite Venerie
It Is Impossible Not to Love Them
Anglos-Francaises de Petite Venerie are the smallest dogs in the Anglos-Francais category. However, the name „Petite”, meaning „small”, is not at all referring to the size of the dogs, but to the game they are after. Even if they've been around since the 16th century, today, these dogs are not easy to find. So if you have decided to adopt one, you can be sure that you will have a unique pet.

Early in 1972, a small group of citizens met to form a society for the prevention of cruelty to animals. In March of 1972, the organization was incorporated under the laws of the State of Arizona as a non-profit organization and named the Yavapai Humane Society (YHS). A decision was made in January 1973 to raise $50,000 for the construction of a shelter. This goal was reached in August 1976. With matching funds from the duBois Foundation in Phoenix, a shelter was constructed at its present site on Sundog Ranch Road on land deeded to YHS by the City of Prescott (land to revert to the City if YHS ceases to operate a shelter on the property). The shelter was opened in August 1977.
The facility has the capability of housing 34 dogs and 60 cats. We manage to shelter 5,000 animals a year. We are often filled to capacity but with the help of our foster families, we are able to house additional animals. Additionally, the Yavapai Humane Society completed a major renovation to the facility in 2005. These improvements have provided the animals with a healthier environment.
