My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Paco!

This 1-year-old, 60lb bully mix is ready to leave shelter life behind and find a loving forever home.

Paco was originally picked up by animal control after a skunky situation —yep, he got sprayed! While he’s had his fair share of baths, this handsome boy is slowly regaining his dignity and learning to trust the world again.

Adventure Buddy in the Making – Paco has already explored the creek and is working on building his confidence. He’s learning leash skills and getting better at following his human’s lead, knowing we’ll keep him safe.

Foodie Alert! – Paco is super treat-motivated, making training fun and rewarding! He’s currently working on perfecting his "sit" and would thrive with positive reinforcement training.

Playful & Strong – This big, lovable guy still has some puppy energy and is learning his manners. He loves playtime and would do best in a home with teens or adults due to his size and enthusiasm.

Dog-Friendly! – Paco enjoys the company of most other dogs, especially the ladies! He’s still being evaluated around cats, so for now, a cat-free home is best.

Snuggle Buddy! - Paco loves lounging at your feet and leaning on you for affection! He adores being petted and wants all your love!

After a rough start in life and ending up in a shelter, Paco is just looking for a family to love and trust. He adores human attention and simply wants time out of his kennel to be with people.

Could you be Paco’s hero? Come meet this affectionate boy and give him the second chance he deserves!
