Story
Characteristics: Achilles is a eager, loving, and loyal boy. He absolutely loves hoses, and chasing lizards. He would be content with a quiet home, or minimal exercise, although he is a shepherd mix. He would love to be around water or have access to swimming. Background: Achilles came to us through our foster program with Pinal county. He was on the priority foster list due to having a bite record from his previous surrender. The circumstance of the bite was unknown, but assumed to be from a loud noise scaring him or being aggressed by the previous owner. Due to changes in the Pinal county insurance policy, we have adopted Achilles to avoid euthanasia. Current progress: Achilles came to us with stranger danger, assumably from shelter stress. He has made a lot of progress interacting with new people as well as dogs. He is still hyper-sensitive to noises and movements, but has learned how to interact with that stress appropriately. Achilles has also undergone basic obedience classes, and is crate trained. Cat tested: Not recommended (prey drive) but can be tested. Kids: Older children with meet and greet only. On leash: Minor pulling on leash, very receptive to training. Behavior concerns: With his hyper-sensitivity, loud noises and fast movements should be limited in the home while he is transitioning to home life. He will most likely need a structured process to introducing strangers in the home at first to be more comfortable. Training receptiveness: High food drive, minimal toy drive. He has been very easy to work with in training and is easy to leave it when barking, even with the hose, which is his favorite. He is eager to please, especially if you are his person. When you adopt a dog from Como Animal Works, you are provided free boarding as a courtesy and comfort of the dog being familiar with our facility. We also provide free training sessions on-site or at the home while the dog is transitioning to home life. Our goal is to help keep dogs out of overcrowded shelters and provide much needed dog socialization during that time.

Story
A cuddler and social butterfly! This big boy is a big love. He is a happy boy, low maintenance, enjoys hiking, walking , car rides, massages and ice-cream cones.  He will follow you around, lay by you, walk nicely on leash and crash on a bed or couch (a little snoring may be included).  George came to us from a county shelter. They said he was aggressive with other dogs. We never saw that, and he has been very friendly with a large male dog, but as a precaution, we would recommend he be the one and only canine family member.   He likes the outdoors but wants to be with you so he is looking for an indoor home where he can provide and have companionship.  He has lived with other dogs, did well with mindful, considerate older kids. George does not like cats. He is our trainers favorite and comes with continued free training.

Story
Sarge is a young boy who loves to play and needs someone willing to keep up with all the progress this sweet guy has made in his training program. He was adored by his foster caretaker where he would lay quietly by her feet and snoozed while she worked on the PC and provided great companionship for her. She sadly could not keep him due to a move and he has been living a ranch style life since. Sarge is a people lover, he wants nothing more than to please you but he wants to be someone's only dog. With people, the more the merrier but with other dogs, two is a crowd. He has a big heart and a ton of love to give.  Sarge would love to find his forever home before the new year and start his new life in the new year! Sarge is waiting, just waiting for that special someone out there to say I pick you!  Sarge is microchipped, vaccinated and neutered. His adoption fee is $50 and to start off his new home life, if adopted before Jan 1st. He comes with 3 months supply of food, collar, leash, harness and training support.Visit this organization's web site to see any additional information available about this pet.April 5, 2025, 1:49 pm
