Tucsonans love our local El Güero Canelo restaurant for their delectable Mexican street food. If you love tacos, Sonoran hot dogs, burritos and tortas, head to El Güero Canelo. If you’re not very hungry and are more in the mood to meet an adorable, deliciously sweet pup, head to PACC to meet Guero!
A staff member shared the following about this very good boy:
“Guero was very easy to leash up and exiting the kennel area was very easy as he ignored the other dogs. We walked out to the park where he walked very calmly and leisurely with very minimal pulling. We sat at a bench in the park for a while where he allowed me to pet him all over and he calmly stood next to me. He returned to his kennel easily and calmly.”
A volunteer friend was impressed with Guero and said:
“I was blown away by how sweet and loving and gentle Guero was. He couldn`t get enough pets, leaning in to soak up all the affection. He also took treats with a soft mouth.”
In a former home Guero was reported to be good with young children, and was house, leash, and crate trained. He was an affectionate, playful couch potato who knows tricks, likes car rides, and is a smart pup.
Guero shares his kennel with another PACC pup and was independent when meeting other dogs in playgroup. He’d like to meet any potential furry roommates to make sure it’s a good fit. He’s not a fan of cats and is looking for a feline-free home. If you’re looking for a super sweet treat of a dog, come and meet Guero today!
