My personality

My story

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

Cuteness Alert!!!

Are you looking for an energetic, eager to please, handsome staffie-boy-blend who's signature look is the perfect eyeliner morning, noon and night?! He claims its "natural".

First hist stats:
-2.5 yrs old
-Neutered male
-Large, ~75 lbs
-Energy level - active, mashed-potato after exercise
-Healthy, up-to-date on vax, microchipped

And a few inside-scoops:
-When excited Taz emits tiny, kitten-like squeals - if you're wondering where that noise could possibly be coming from, its coming from all 75 lbs of him, so stop looking for the kitten
-He can rock winter sweaters like no other, handsome-est in red
-On solitary hikes he will stay close by your side and has excellent recall
-Goofy like no other, he will turn up the laugh-factor in the home so get ready to show the doldrums to the door!

Taz is good with most dogs (if you have any we'll make sure); and “wuvs his hoomans”. Children in the home should be 10+ since little humans take time, dogs take time and few families have time for both. Big-dog-savy kids could be an exception as we believe Taz was raised with kids. We have no information about our feline friends thus to be respectful of everyone's time, do not suggest them.

If you've been thinking about something outside of yourself to pour love and care into, Taz is standing by to return it 10-fold. That's just how he rolls.

Additional adoption info

We use a transparent adoption process, as follows:

-Completion of Adoption Application (*required)
-Phone call to answer any questions you may have
-Meet up (opportunity for you to meet the animal in their current setting)
-Short stay over (2-3 hour visit at your place to assess the right fit - PACC will bring the animal to you and will help with pet intros, as applicable)
-Adoption!

An exceptionally high number of potential adopters encounter situations that cause delays or lead them to change their minds about the animal, thus PACC is unable to put other adopters on hold to accommodate individual circumstances. We continue to invite ALL adopters through the adoption process, until the dog or cat is successfully homed. (In other words, even though you may have met the animal, PACC does not have the luxury of working exclusively with you, for the reasons outlined above). We will efficiently guide ALL potential adopters through our process and the family that completes the process first and is a good fit for the dog or cat will be given first consideration. Our main interest is being respectful of everyone’s time while transitioning our animals to loving permanent homes as quickly as possible.

More about this rescue

We are a group of former Peninsula Humane Society (PHS) volunteers and animal rescue advocates who have over 40 years combined experience in animal welfare.

Having worked extensively with the animals coming into San Mateo County's Coyote Point shelter, we have witnessed first hand the shortcomings of an outdated animal warehousing model.

PACC Board Members successfully encouraged the county to open the San Mateo County Animal Care & Control Contract for bid in preparation for the current contract ending in 2021 - something that has not been done for 69 years!
