Story
`Baby will you be my Corona lime... and I will be your main squeeze..`Meet Shwayze! He came into the Shelter as an owner surrender after his previous guardian was unable to continue caring for him. Shwayze has been hanging out in a foster home so we can get to know a bit about him in a home-like environment. His foster reports: `Shwayze is a very good boy. He loves going for walks & taking car rides. He is gentle around the cats & only mildly curious unless they run from him. He is potty trained completely & sleeps through the night on the couch. He knows sit, down & come. He has played with other dogs well & he definitely wants a buddy to run around with. He is an exceptional snugger & doesn’t quite believe that he is 90 lbs.` Shwayze is an easy going guy that would do well in a variety of homes. Any resident dogs should meet at the Shelter prior to adoption. A dog-savvy cat paired with a thoughtful, slow introduction may also be a fit. If you are looking for an overall good boy to be your sidekick - look no further than Shwayze!

Story
Lala is a big, super sweet and happy, friendly 65lb goober girl! She is about 2 years young, and loves people and dogs of all kinds. People love her and give her attention everywhere she goes because she's so sweet and gorgeous! She loves to give gentle hugs and offer her paw to hold hands, while gazing softly into their eyes. Lala is gentle with children of all ages, but does get overwhelmed with younger children who want to play with her too much.    Her temperament is gentle and she typically has a low to moderate energy level. However, she is still puppy-like and very playful with other dogs, loves to wrestle and tries to engage in play with every kind of dog. She would love to have a play buddy at home to play with! Other dogs may bark at her due to her size and friendliness, but she does not react or bark back, she's such a good girl!   Lala does require gentle and experienced owners who can help her understand boundaries with other dogs, and continue walking and separation anxiety training, so that she can continue being a good big girl! Lala was likely left in a backyard before and had escaped, as she does dig holes when she's bored and left outside alone. We wish for her to be able to have an engaged forever family who wants to actively experience life along with them, as she is still young and has a lot to see!   At her foster home, Lala has learned how to: &#226&#156&#133 Ride well in the car &#226&#156&#133 Respect older and smaller dogs &#226&#156&#133 Leash walking: Come back when she gets to the end of the leash or when called &#226&#156&#133 Sit, stay, come, leave it, shake, lay down &#226&#156&#133 Loves brush-outs, as she does shed quite a bit! &#226&#156&#133 Stay calm when left in the house   Lala is still working on: Crate training  100% loose-leash walking (Lala still pulls a bit due to her size)  Ignoring dogs that she wants to play with  Staying still for nail trims and baths  Not sure if she's friendly with cats, but she does try to chase squirrels   Contact The Perfect Dog rescue to fill out an application form. If approved, then we can arrange a time for you to meet Lala with her foster home!  We wish for her to be able to have an engaged forever family who wants  Lala  to actively experience life along with them, as she is still young and has a lot to see!

Story
Adoptable Dog Stevie: Check out this girl's rare lineage and distinctive beauty! Meet Stevie, beautiful in her unique, one of a kind-ness! This blonde bombshell is believed to be a Central Asian Shepherd, possible blend, roughly 2 years old, 85 lbs, spayed, vaxed, microchipped and is looking for a family who appreciates her charm! PACC has been asked to help rehome Stevie because she and her canine sister get along great - until they don't. While the family isn't clear who starts the arguments, we want to err on the side of caution and find Stevie a home where she can be the sole doggess and her sister can be the same. The girls like to Face Time, just not under the same roof, if you follow our drift... Stevie boasts a myriad of superpowers: She's a people enthusiast, never meeting a person she doesn't adore. Humans find her irresistible (PACC being no exception) Bred to be a working dog, she's from the generation that throws out traditional job descriptions and writes their own - she aspires to be "THE" family dog and we don't want to stifle her entrepreneurial ambitions Stevie is super playful and puppy-like without the puppy downside of housetraining. While energetic in short bursts, she balances her day with napping and occasional and highly entertaining "zoomies" She likes her feline friends and tries hard to entice them to play. Blank stares are not a deal breaker in her book Stevie prefers play to walks—and LOVES treat toys and puzzles. It's important to her to keep her brain cells sharp Stevie is great on leash and can go for walks but when she is tired you'll know it cause she plops down (typically 15-30 minutes into a walk). With a good tug and motivational talk she'll continue on like the good girl that she is If Stevie sounds like a good fit with your situation COPY AND PASTE THE LINK TO THE adoption application into your browser and we will be in touch: No other dogs, cats ok, moderately active household or one that likes to keep the dogs brain occupied through games; children in the home 10 or older because little humans take time, dogs take time and few families have time for both; no need to follow in-fashion breed trends since Stevie's lineage and unique beauty is rare!
