About Juliet

Meet Juliet, a young Labrador Retriever mix in need of immediate attention. She requires a medical foster or adopter to help her recover from distemper virus. Juliet was found by an officer at a school and brought to the Pima Animal Care Center (PACC) with her furry friend. Positive interactions with other dogs could greatly assist her adjustment in a new home, helping her realize that people can be kind. Juliet's rehabilitation is expected to take about three months, and being in a calm and supportive environment will be crucial for her recovery. Distemper is not contagious to fully vaccinated adult dogs, allowing many households the opportunity to provide her with a safe haven. PACC supports fosters with medical care and supplies, and those who foster Juliet will have priority if she’s ready for adoption later. Behaviorally, Juliet needs some understanding. A decompression period is essential for her to settle down, allowing her to approach at her own pace. Introducing her to a confident dog can foster trust and help her navigate this transition. Potential adopters must meet her at PACC before the deadline to explore this opportunity further. Ready to make a difference?
