My story

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

He is came to us from Pima Animal Care Center in Tucson. His life before PACC & now AZCR, was not so great. He lived outside in Sells, AZ and was turned into the shelter by his owners because they didn’t want him anymore. He was so covered in ticks, he developed tick fever; he has since been treated by PACC and is on medication. But he's not letting that get him down!! Here's what a volunteer at PACC had to say about sweet Sam: "Sam is a sweet, tiny little fellow….just right for cuddling. He’s a short-haired Chi, approximately 5 years old, neutered, and weighs about 8.5 pounds. Sam gets along with other dogs, appears to be housebroken, and he is gentle, calm, and quiet. In spite of all he been through and the fact he doesn’t feel very well, he’s loving, happy, and enjoys walking and sitting in laps. He also enjoys turkey dogs and, in case you didn’t notice, he’s downright adorable." We can all agree on that! Sam will continue his treatment for tick fever, in his foster home and will be available for adoption when he is cleared medically. Please email BJ
