MEDICAL DEADLINE

Name: Koko
Animal ID: A840764
Age: 2years
Weight: 79 lbs.
Web Link: 24petconnect.com/PimaAdoptablePets/Details/PIMA/A840764
About: Koko needs a home ASAP! Koko is recovering from FHO (hip) surgery and in shelter he is losing weight! We are also concerned that he is not getting up and around enough in a kennel as he would in a home for physical therapy. He LOVES people and would do so much better in a home with recovering. Koko will also need another FHO surgery on his other hip!
History: Koko came to PACC last year and his owners stated he was good with Cats, Dogs and people! That Koko was housebroken and generally did very well when left alone. Koko has lived with other dogs small and large and done well!
Behavior:
Destructive Behaviors
• Crate training can help with destructive behaviors.
• Some dogs get bored easily, offering activities such as frozen kongs, enrichments, music and TV sounds can keep them busy and help alleviate stress.
Escape Risk
• Koko likes to adventure and may find ways to escape their confinement.
• Supervise outdoor time and avoid leaving unattended.
Adoption/Foster Process:
All interested parties must meet the dog at PACC before their deadline. Some dogs may also require an introduction to any dogs they may potentially live with. Once introductions are complete and if the IP has decided this dog may be a good fit, the process is as follows:
Interested parties:
• Must visit PACC before the 5pm Wednesday October 29th deadline to meet with an adoption/foster counselor who will go over notes and introduce you to the dog.
• Are encouraged to reach out to a rescue group ASAP (even before coming to PACC), to start the rescue approval process. Please have the rescue contact PACC at [email protected] if approved to pull.
• If an IP has not already contacted a rescue, PACC will notify all partnered rescue groups of an interested party and request their assistance. Once you have come to PACC to meet with the dog and determined that you’d like to move forward, your information will be sent to partnered rescue groups. If a rescue group is interested and feels they may be able to pull, they will then reach out to IPs.
Collaboration with Rescue Groups:
• Rescue groups are encouraged to reach out to PACC immediately if they will pull this animal into their rescue (and if there are requirements: Interested adoptive party, spay/neuter if not already completed, etc.)
• Rescue groups are encouraged to start their adoption process with any interested parties who have contacted them directly and email PACC at [email protected].
Please note that it is ultimately up to the rescue group's discretion to decide whether to proceed with adoption.
