My story

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

Billow is a bouncy boy who first arrived at PACC as a stray. During a brief stay in a home, he did well with other dogs, was house trained, and was described as affectionate, playful, and smart. He loves toys and wants nothing more than to be by his person’s side.

“Billow knows sit and paw and I didn’t teach that- he already knew it. He slept in the bed with me or on the couch. Loves to play fetch with his squeaky balls.”

Here’s what some of Billow’s volunteer friends have said:

“Billow is a sweet little boy! I met for the first time today and he was very friendly in his kennel, easy to leash up and bring over to a play yard. He’s a happy-go-lucky pup who just seems content with whatever is going on. He spent some time in my lap getting pets, he spent some time trying to get his kennelmate to play with him, and he spent some time just exploring the play yard. He watched curiously as other dogs passed by and did not bark or react. He’s a sweet, sweet baby.”

“Billow is just a youngster who can be quite rambunctious. He’s very sweet, knows how to sit, and takes treats gently.”

Billow shares his kennel with another PACC pup and has been playful and easygoing when meeting other dogs in playgroup. Ask to meet Billow today!!
