Meet Koni & Laeli: The Bonded Mother-Daughter Duo! Koni (8) and Laeli (6) are two super sweet girls who are looking for a new chapter together!

Meet Asher, a handsome Australian Shepherd / Heeler mix with a heart of gold!   Born in August, this young man is the definition of a sweet and polite gentleman. Asher has a calm soul and will patiently wait for you to invite him over to say hello. While he might take a little bit of time to warm up to new faces, the reward is truly priceless! Once he feels comfortable, he becomes a world-class snuggler who expresses his love by leaning his body against your chest and tucking his head right under your chin for the most perfect embrace. Asher is a social soul who gets along famously with humans and dogs of all sizes, though his feelings on cats are still a mystery! ‍ He is already neutered, microchipped, and current on all his vaccines, so he is ready to find his forever home today!   Because he is still a young man, he is looking for a family that can provide consistent guidance as he continues to master his potty and kennel training. He will also need a patient hand to help him with his leash manners when it’s time for adventures. ‍ With a little leadership and a lot of love, Asher is sure to be the most loyal companion you’ve ever had!

Story
  Gunther is a sweet, sensitive, devoted, 12ish year old boy that's young at heart and weighs about 40 lbs.  He can be a bit bossy and possessive when it comes to interacting with other dogs, but he's been really good with the Chihuahua that he's been fostered with, and he loves to run and play with a female friend of his that's about his size.  He also does very well being the only dog, and would love to have a human or two that he doesn't have to share with anyone else and a big yard to run around in.  He had a benign anal tumor removed about a year ago, but recovered quickly and completely.  He's been chipped, neutered and is up to date on his vaccinations. Gunther's adoption fee is $275, with a $21 PACC license transfer fee. he is adoptable to homes in Tucson, Marana, Oro Valley, Catalina and Sahuarita only.

Story
Odin is a cute slightly senior fellow who has spent quite a bit of time in and out of adoptive and foster homes. Here’s what we’ve learned:- He is house trained and crate trained- He is great with kids and is gentle and patient with them - He is well- behaved when left home alone- He loves toys and being with his people- He is loving, calm, snuggly and happy“Odin LOVES to snuggle. He is a couch potato and loves to sleep. At night he will sleep snuggled up next to his owners. He absolutely loves attention and any pets he can get. He is so sweet and loves to be around people. He will play fetch with his toys and does not react if you take them from him. He gets so excited at dinner time and jumps around as you bring his food over. He sits and tries to shake when putting his leash on him. Odin would do amazing in a home with a yard with a family who would give him attention. He does fine alone for long periods of time.”Odin has been independent and tolerant when meeting other dogs in playgroup. He’d like to meet any resident dogs before heading home to ensure a good fit and is looking for a home without small dogs. Ask to meet Odin today!!

Story
Lucy is a sweet, sensitive senior who came to PACC with her brother after their person passed away. Understandably a bit uncertain of her new circumstances, Lucy has warmed up to her volunteer friends and loves and appreciates gentle affection. During a brief foster stay Lucy lived with kids and other dogs, mostly ignoring both. She is house trained, loves tasty chew treats, and was described by her foster as friendly and reserved. She’s not fan of being left home alone, so would love to find a family where someone can stay home with her often. Here`s what volunteers at the shelter have said:“Lucy is such an angel. A calm, quiet girl, she has opened up and enjoys her time in the play yard. She stands right next to me and asks politely for pets, leaning into me. After losing her person and her home, she really deserves the love and reassurance of a new family who will give her time adjust.”“This lovely girl is a bit shy and unsure of herself but with slow and gentle interaction, she certainly has a sweet and cooperative attitude. She craves attention and once she gets to know you, she really warms up and is extremely grateful for affection and companionship. She’s easy to leash up and walks calmly on leash.” Lucy has shared her kennel politely during her time at PACC and has been tolerant and independent when meeting other dogs in playgroup. Lucy is ready for a retirement filled with gentleness, stability, and love. If you can offer her a peaceful home and the patience she needs to settle in, she’ll reward you with quiet devotion and gratitude. Please ask to meet Lucy today!
