Maricopa County Sheriff's Office M.A.S.H. Unit
The M.A.S.H. Unit (Maricopa County Sheriff's Office Animal Safe Haven), a no-kill shelter, was established in May of 2000. MASH was created to house and care for animals that have been abused or neglected by their caretakers, and have been rescued by the Animal Cruelty Investigative Unit. The purpose of the shelter is to provide a safe, healthy and healing environment for these animals, who must await the outcome of their owners’ cruelty cases in court. Ultimately, the goal is to adopt these animals into loving, permanent homes.
