My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

If PACC had an award for “MIP” (Most Improved Pup), Pandora would win, hands-down! Pandora came into the shelter very frightened- of people, new experiences (like walking on a leash), even leaving her kennel. She has improved by leaps and bounds in the couple of months that she’s been at the shelter and her volunteer and staff friends can’t wait to see the continued growth that we KNOW she will make in a stable, loving home!

One of Pandora’s volunteer friends shared, “Pandora is the most improved pup. She`s a shy girl learning to trust, and she`s excelling in it. Now she allows handling and walks to a yard without issue. Such a brave girl.”

Pandora would love to go home with a confident dog to show her the ropes and a patient family who will give her time to warm up and build trust. While some dogs will crawl into your lap the moment they meet you, Pandora is more thoughtful and careful and, as many highly intelligent beings do, she will need time to build trust before giving you her whole heart. But, if her experience in the shelter is predictive of a furever home, once she learns the routines and understands that she’s safe at home with people who love her, she will give the love back 1000 times over! If you can give this gentle, sweet soul a soft landing spot and a lifetime of love, come meet Pandora today!
