Story
Angel is a loving and affectionate Bull Terrier mix (not a Pit Bull) who thrives on attention. She’ll nudge you for head scratches and does her best to stay close, always trying to be by your side. Angel was diagnosed with Valley Fever before she fully grew, and although she was treated with medication, the disease affected her back legs, leaving her with a noticeable limp that the vet says will be permanent. Despite this, she remains a happy, spirited dog.Her Valley Fever is currently in remission, and she is no longer on medication. Angel has a big, bold voice and isn’t shy about using it to communicate. She’s also quite protective of her home and yard, making sure everything feels safe and secure!

Story
🐾 Meet Gumbo – Looking for His Forever Home 🐾 Gumbo is a beautiful, active dog who is looking for the right person to give him the time and attention he deserves. ✅ Kennel trained ✅ House trained ✅ Knows basic commands ✅ Training collar included Gumbo does well with some dogs but is selective and prefers not to share toys, food, or personal space. Because of this, he would thrive best as the only dog in the household, with no children, and with someone experienced in managing resource guarding. He’s full of energy, loves being active, and will do best with someone who can give him plenty of exercise, structure, and attention. Due to unforeseen medical issues, his current owner cannot give him the care and consistency he needs. Gumbo is truly a wonderful dog who just needs the right match. 📍 Located in: Catalina, Arizona Contact: Tonya

hi this is Rascal, a few months ago his original owner had moved states away. unfortunately they couldnt take him with. we decided to foster him untill they had the funds to take him but the owner no longer wants him. hes a really really good dog, but im never home. I dont have the space in my yard, or really in my house for him. I thought it was going to be temporary. he needs someone who can be there with him, someone to play with him. he's really good with children, cats, dogs. every once and while we would walk him and he would pull a little but when another dog would come he would just walk right past. maybe a little crying because he was excited. he loves his toys. doesnt destroy them but loves squeaky toys. he loves my cats but unfortunately they do not love him. he jumps a little but over all really easy to train. my whole goal is to make sure he's happy and loved

Very hyper he is still around a puppy age he’s only a year and 6 months old. He is ready to protect you and your family. Only issue that I have ever noticed was food aggression when in his kennel. He is territorial he loves to play and chase toys and loves to take baths. He is such a great dog and loves to play with other dogs as well. He will be so happy to find a forever home. I developed health issues to where I can’t take care of him but he is a good dog.

Story
Fanny is about 4-5 years old. She was abandoned with us, the little bit of backstory we have suggests she was abused before coming into our home. Our apartment complex has changed management and she's no longer on the approved dog breed list. She has been affectionately renamed to Fanny by our child in reference to the movie Robots. "We can't call her Aunt Booty". She loves our son and is extremely affectionate, we occasionally dog sit and she absolutely loves each and every dog that temporarily comes into our home. Due to prior abuse she is very skittish, does not like raised voices, brooms, vacuums, and will occasionally piddle if she believes she's in trouble. She's very relaxed and once she trusts you she makes the perfect cuddle buddy.

Story
Hey everyone, it’s me — Finn! Guess what? I’m finally ready for adoption! I’ve fought through a bunch of illnesses and came out on top (because I’m a tough little fighter ). We have figured out that I'm valley fever positive and my new meds are really helping. Now I’m healthy, happy, and thriving! I’m about 90% kennel trained (sometimes I get so excited I forget and have a tiny accident ). I love hanging out with other dogs, I think kids are awesome, and cats? Eh, they don’t really bother me at all. I've had all my vaccines, I have a microchip and I've been neutered! So… who’s ready to be my forever family? Please complete an adoption application at www.pathwaysforpaws.com. If he fits your family and lifestyle, you will be contacted within 48 hours. Click HERE for the adoption application. ##2471320##

Story
I adopted Lucy from PACC shelter in Tucson,AZ on October 17th. She is sweet, affection with me and my daughter. However, she is very reactive to other dogs and people. Unfortunately, she is two and a half and I am 82. I also live in a condo and can only walk her on a leash. I have had dogs all my life. However, at forty pounds she is very strong and recently pulled me down. I love her but she needs a young, stronger person with a fenced yard so she can get the exercise she needs. I hope to fine the right person for her.
