UPDATE: Spencer is safe in rescue!!

Name: Spencer
Animal ID: A850385
Age: 2 years
Weight: 23.80 lb.

About: Spencer is a smooth-coated black and white terrier mix who came to PACC on September 17th, 2024 from a home that had over 100 dogs. This situation understandably left him under-socialized and unaccustomed to normal home life. Since his arrival at the shelter, Spencer has struggled to make progress with his social skills and leash training. The shelter environment has proven overwhelming for Spencer. Spencer recently had an altercation with another similar- sized dog, however, as Spencer previously lived with many other dogs, this situation was likely due to the stress of his current circumstances.

Despite his sad history and struggle to adjust, many people have shown interest in Spencer. Sadly, none have been willing to fully commit to him and give him the second chance he needs. Spencer needs the opportunity to thrive in a calmer, more stable home where he will be given ample time to decompress and build confidence. Ideally, he would benefit from living with a confident, well-socialized dog who can show him the ropes and help him learn how to adjust to life in a normal home setting.

Spencer will need an extremely patient adopter who is committed to going at his pace, allowing him the time and space to come out of his shell without forcing handling or overwhelming him. Positive reinforcement and gentle encouragement will be key to helping Spencer build trust and gain confidence in a new environment. With the right home and guidance, Spencer has the potential to blossom and overcome his early life challenges- he just needs help to do so!

Adoption Process:

Interested parties:

Must visit PACC before the 5:00 PM Friday, October 18th deadline to meet with an adoption counselor who will go over notes and then introduce you to ensure that it’s a good fit.
Are encouraged to reach out to a rescue group, to start their process. Have the rescue contact PACC at [email protected]. If you've connected with a rescue, please inform PACC for coordination.

Collaboration with Rescue Groups:

PACC's Role:

If you haven't contacted a rescue, PACC will notify all partnered rescue groups about your interest and request their assistance.

Partnered Rescue Groups:

Spencer will require additional training and support that PACC is unable to provide.
Will be given any interested parties information to contact to start their adoption process.
Are encouraged to start their adoption process with any interested parties who have contacted them directly and email PACC at [email protected].

Spencer will need to find placement with a partnered rescue group by 5:00 PM on Friday, October 18th.

Please note that it is ultimately up to the rescue group's discretion to decide whether to proceed with adoption. Partnered Rescue Groups can pull any dogs on Rescue Only Deadline at any time without an interested party.

I HoPe today is KIND to You. 💜CiNdy

Sorry we haven't posted in along time. Mom fractured her foot back at the end of October and was immobilized until recently. She is slowly getting back on her feet again. Mom now has a full time caregiver to help with household chores and take us to appointments. Last month I injured my back when I jumped off the bed (they think that's what happened) and tweaked it and had to be on complete rest. I'm finally back to normal and back to my service dog duties and training. Mom is back to her sewing machines, and has been busy making kennel quilts for the local shelter. She is also available to take orders again. Please see our online catalog. We also want to welcome our new followers. Thank you for your patronage. Feel free to share our page with family and friends.

Currently in foster!

TORETTO - ID

My name is TORETTO. Toretto is a big, beautiful boy who needs to gain a bunch of weight! He came in with his sister Mia (she's currently in foster) and did very well with her but should meet your pets at home. If you can foster/pre-adopt this boy, please reach out!

Hope of Deliverance, Inc. has sponsored this boy's gastropexy through their vet for anyone who adopts him! This is a proactively life-saving surgery that is such a wonderful weight off your mind, and such a kind gesture. Thank you, Hope!

I am a male, white and gray Great Dane.

I weigh approximately 82.00 lbs.

The shelter staff think I am about 3 years old.

I have been at the shelter since Apr 22, 2024 and ready for adoption!

I am currently in foster care but am available for adoption! If you are interested in adopting me, please email [email protected].

📣 "PIMA COUNTY! We received some great news this week, but we need your help to make it happen!

Thanks to our nonprofit partner, Friends of Pima Animal Care Center, construction is beginning on a major sound-dampening project in our busiest, loudest kennel section, which we refer to around the shelter as 'Phase 2.'

This construction is going to bring an incredible amount of relief to our staff and volunteers, but most importantly, the dogs who live in these buildings 24/7. We are SO excited and grateful that this project is officially underway!

Here's the thing: The contractors informed us that installation itself, which will take about two weeks, is going to be very, very noisy, entirely too noisy for our pups' ears.

That's why we need YOU! We're looking for foster parents who can take a dog home for just two weeks during this construction. In return for fostering a dog weighing 40+lbs, you'll get:
😻 Two weeks of love from an amazing pup
🦴 A crate and food provided by PACC
💵 $5 a day for each day you foster over this period as a small token of thanks from Friends of PACC, and the knowledge that you helped make an amazing thing happen! 💙

We're looking for fosters starting as soon as today, Wednesday, but the project kicks off May 6, so we'll need pups outta here before then! Come to our foster office any day we're open to get started!
