SANDY*'s Story
CENSUS DEADLINE 5PM 12/10/24 Name: Sandy Animal ID: A820935 Age: 3 years Weight: 57 lbs. About: Sandy is an energetic, happy young dog who is looking for his forever home. He spent close to a year in a foster home before returning to the shelter and we learned the following: - He lived with another dog and did great - He was housebroken - He is an active, playful pup who will benefit from training and structure - He is well- behaved when left home alone, snoozing the day away - He is smart, alert, and curious - He is sweet and loves to be with his people - He loves toys - He loves to run Sandy will thrive in an active household with owners who can provide him with plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. He's a smart and eager-to-please dog who will benefit from training and positive reinforcement. Here’s what one volunteer at the shelter said: “I have a thing for brown dogs and Sandy fits the bill. He is the whole package in my eyes. We walk in the desert together, with no pulling or jumpiness. I find him to be such a nice walker. He turns to me now and then looking for a treat, but I tell him to keep walking and he continues on. I haven't seen any reactivity or mouthiness from him any time I have had him out. He's actually one of the most enjoyable walks of my night. I find Sandy to be an awesome companion and thoroughly enjoy any time I can spend with him.” While Sandy can be good with other dogs his size and larger, he has a high prey drive and should not be in a home with cats or small animals. He's also prone to destructive behavior when bored or stressed, so crate training and plenty of enrichment are essential. Due to an old fracture from when he first came to the shelter, Sandy will need joint supplements to keep him comfortable for life. Sandy is a wonderful dog who deserves a loving and patient family. Please ask about how you can help Sandy! Available for foster care or adoption through PACC. Adoption Process: Interested parties: • Must visit PACC before the 5:00 PM December 10, 2024, deadline to meet with an adoption or foster counselor who will go over notes and then introduce you to ensure that it’s a good fit.
