Parker

Parker has waited long enough.<br/><br/>Every time we visit Parker at animal control, we leave asking ourselves the same question: "How is he still here?" Because the dog we see today is completely different from the dog who first arrived. When Parker came into animal control's care, he was shut down. Terrified. Heartbroken.

We would love nothing more than to welcome Parker into the Rover's Do Over family. But we need a foster or adopter first. Because foster homes save lives.

Ready for his second chance

One of our favorite things about Parker is how much he enjoys other dogs.

Having canine friends helps him feel comfortable and confident, and watching him play and interact with them is enough to melt anyone's heart.

The problem? At the end of every day, Parker still has to go back to his kennel. Back to waiting.
