Story
  ***COURTESY POSTING NOT A TUCSON COLD WET NOSES DOG***   Henna is a sweet, playful Anatolian Shepherd mix, approximately 3 years old, with a big heart and an even bigger love for other dogs. She's a little reserved with new people at first, but she warms up fast — give her a few minutes and she's yours. She is not yet spayed or up to date on vaccines, and we're happy to help a foster get that sorted. Henna is full of energy and affection, and she absolutely lights up around other dogs — a home with a dog buddy would be her dream. The one thing she asks for is a cat-free home; she is vocally anti-cat and does best where there are no cats around. This is a temporary foster, not an adoption. Henna's family is entering treatment and needs someone to care for her short-term so they can bring her home once they're back on their feet. She isn't being given up — she just needs a couch and a kind person to hold her spot for a little while, so a family can stay together through a hard stretch. Foster length: approximately 1 to 2 months. Please contact me at 602-570-4392 if you would like more information.   *Applications to adopt: wwwTucsonColdWetNoses.com Home Visit / ID and Residence Verification is required.  Compliance does not imply or guarantee adoption.   Approval is the sole discretion of CWN representative(s).

Story
Please meet Melman fka Koko! A8407642.5 year old neutered male, up to date on vaccines and microchipped. This sweet gentle giant is looking for his next foster or foster to adopt home. Named after the goofy, lengthy, wobbly giraffe, Melman has come a long way from his injuries- he had to have both hips fixed! Now he`s fully healed and ready for his forever home!Melman is a very big Velcro dog who wants to be his humans’s very best friend, a good snuggle and pets on the couch is his idea of the best day ever. Melman has done well in the foster home with both dogs and cats. He does not mind cats at all and would be a very good addition to a home with feline friends! Melman can live with other dogs, but would strive in a home with calm, submissive dogs or where he can have at least one human who can give him the spotlight and all the love. Melman walks well on a leash, has been friendly with all humans, has previously done well with children but we would recommend older children who can respect his recovery. He is house trained. He still needs some work on crate training. Please reach out to PACC.MedicalFoster@pima.gov for more information or to schedule a meet and greet!

Story
Norton is a gentle giant with a heart full of potential. Norton came to PACC after living a rough life, likely as an outdoor dog who was left behind. Since arriving at PACC and moving into foster care, he’s been slowly learning what it means to be safe, loved, and part of a family.Norton is still shy with new people and needs time and patience to warm up, especially with men. He’s particularly sensitive about being touched near his neck and the area around his missing eye, but once he trusts you, he seeks out affection and enjoys being loved on in his own gentle way.He currently lives with other dogs and cats and is doing well with slow, supervised introductions. Norton is house-trained, crate-trained, and enjoys car rides, relaxing in the park, and taking in the world by his foster family`s side. Because Norton is still nervous about loud noises and unfamiliar environments, he needs to be monitored when outdoors and will need a secure yard with tall fencing and a solid gate. Norton likes the mellow, simple pleasures, so a home without young children would be best. He would love a calm, adult household with someone who understands shy dogs and is willing to go slow as he continues to grow more confident.If you`re looking for a loyal, gentle companion who just needs time, patience, and love to truly shine—Norton is your guy.
