About Paco

Meet Lil Man Paco! This charming little dog truly has a BIG heart. After overcoming many challenges, he's ready to receive the love and care he deserves. Paco found his way to us through our wonderful Dr. Laura, after battling severe skin issues and dental health. Thanks to her, he underwent significant dental surgery where 30 teeth were removed! Imagine how much better he feels now. With a regimen of Apoquel and soothing medicated baths, he's on the mend, but he will need to stay on a low dose of Apoquel for life, so prospective adopters should be mindful of this ongoing expense. Paco adores cuddles and being close to his humans. He prefers the cozy life and isn't much interested in walking on a leash, but he loves to venture out in his little pouch—who needs to walk when you can travel in style? He's also friendly with dogs, as he enjoys playing with his foster brother, but his opinion on cats is still unknown. A fully fenced yard is essential for Paco since leash walking isn't his favorite. After all he's been through, he deserves a loving home filled with snuggles and joy. Lil Man Paco is about 7 years old and is eager to give endless love to his new family. Are you ready to give him the happily-ever-after he’s been waiting for? Apply to adopt this precious little guy today! Paco will come neutered and up to date on rabies, DHPP, and bordatella vaccinations, along with his medicated shampoo and Apoquel. Adopters will need to establish his care with a vet to continue his prescriptions.
