Story
Meet Paco, our charming senior Chihuahua with a heart as big as his adorable little ears! At just 8 pounds, Paco is the perfect pint-sized companion. Paco loves to follow you around the house like your tiny, loyal shadow. Whether you’re making coffee in the morning or relaxing in the evening, he’ll be right there, keeping you company. And when he’s had a full day of supervising and snuggling? Paco adorably tucks himself into bed when he’s tired — no fuss, just a polite little gentleman who knows when it’s time to rest. Paco is estimated to be around 10-12 years old and does well with other dogs. I would not recommend a home with small children just due to his age and small size. Paco does have some special medical needs. He came to us with horrible nasty teeth that all had to be pulled. His diet consists of small bite kibble soaked in water to make it soft for him to eat. He also enjoys wet foods of any kind. He also has a grade 4 out of 6 heart murmur and is on a regular heart medication for life. With this medication he still has a lot of life left to live! He is showing no outward symptoms of having a heart condition. Paco is located in Texas. His adoption fee is $195 local or $395 out of state with transport and includes current shots, microchip, neuter and negative heart worm test. If you are interested in adopting Paco please complete the adoption application at the link below.

Story
Meet Zarre, the Gal with Both Beauty & Brains!I’m about 1 year old and 60 pounds of brains, beauty, and just a tiny bit of shy. Shelter life can be a little overwhelming for a sensitive girl like me, so I might seem nervous when we first meet. I just like to take a minute to make sure you’re one of the good ones. Once I know I can trust you? Ohhh, then you get the real me; wiggly, sweet, and totally devoted. I’m SUPER smart! I already know sit, down, shake, spin, and speak and I love showing off my skills. Got treats? Even better. I play well with the other dogs here, but fair warning: I’m a vocal player. I like to chat while I wrestle and romp. It’s all part of the fun! Because I can be a little shy at first, I’d do best with middle school aged kids and up.Lived with dogs: UnknownLived with cats: UnknownLived with children: UnknownWant to know more? Please call us! We've found that back and forth via email regarding a specific animal is not always effective and quick because our email is not monitored on a regular basis. So, for specific information regarding this wonderful pet, please contact one of our adoption counselors at (715) 232-9790. They are available between the hours of 8 am and 7 pm (7 days a week, excluding holidays). Thanks for your interest!

Story
Name: Chibbs Age: 4 months old  Breed: Terrier mix Gender: Female Weight: under under 20 Good with kids: yes Good with dogs: yes Good with cats: trainable Current on vaccinations: Yes Adoption also includes Certified Vet Inspection, and Prior vetting paperwork.  Foster location: Appleton  Application & Website: https://www.ourpackanimalrescue.com/adoption.html  Bio: Chibbs had an awful start to her life but she is resilient and very very curious. Her curiosity is helping her come around quickly and learn to trust humans. She will take some work but is a very sweet and playful pup that will steal your heart.  Puppies will be puppies—they scratch, nip, jump, have accidents, and chew on things they shouldn’t. They require time, patience, and consistent training. Please only consider adoption if you’re truly ready for the responsibility and lifelong commitment they deserve.  Our Pack Animal Rescue,  Inc. Is an all foster based 501c3 rescue. License #487823. Meet and greets are arranged after an application has been approved. An approved application does not mean you must adopt the dog of interest, if it isn't a good fit.February 22, 2026, 7:11 pm
