SUNFLOWER, AZ – A scared, injured pup that was rescued near the site of a large wildfire earlier this summer has found a new home.
As fire crews battled the Diamond Fire in the Tonto National Forest on July 26, ADOT crews from Payson were dispatched to set up traffic control along State Route 87 near Sunflower. That’s where they found the pit bull mix that was fleeing the nearby fire. ADOT workers rescued the dog, naming her Sunflower after the nearby town.
Sunflower has been adopted, according to the Humane Society of Central Arizona!
