About:
If Flits were being reviewed on Yelp, some of the reviews would read as follows:
“Flits was such a pleasure to walk this morning! Being with him was the highlight of my day.”
“Flits is so handsome, smart and perfectly medium-sized. He's becoming a quick favorite!”
“Flits is a great companion and a very good walking buddy!”
“Five stars across the board!! Flits is a very good boy who was found by a member of the public who had him in their home for about a week. They stated that he was a sweet dog and loved everybody and everything
and got along with other dogs in the home.”
“Flits is such a smart and sweet boy; he’s a volunteer favorite here in the shelter, with many volunteers who love to walk him and work on his training.”
“Flits and I went to the grassy field at the park where he sat for treats, which he took politely from my hand. He saw a few dogs and had no reaction to them. Good boy!”
“Today Flits chose prancing around the yard like a little pony instead of coming over for pets, but once I got his attention he was ready for treats! He knows “sit” and is learning “down.” He's treat motivated so that should make training easier.”
Flits would like to meet any resident dogs before heading home to ensure a good fit. We’re certain that if you come and meet him, you’ll give him a five-star rating too!!
Adoption 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 COB Wednesday March 4th deadline to meet with an adoption 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 PACC.UrgentDogs@pima.gov 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 PACC.UrgentDogs@pima.gov.
Please note that it is ultimately up to the rescue group's discretion to decide whether to proceed with adoption.
HOME MANAGEMENT PLAN:
1) Dog Introduction Required:
• Reason: offensiveness towards other dogs in pg
• Slow, Structured Introductions: Introductions must be gradual and carefully managed in neutral territory. Monitor all body language closely, and end sessions on a positive note.
• Muzzle Training: It is recommended to conditionFlits to a comfortable basket muzzle before introductions. This provides safety and allows for positive experiences during early meetings.
• No Dog Parks: Flits should not attend dog parks or other uncontrolled environments. These settings can overwhelm or trigger negative interactions, making progress more difficult.
• Behaviors could improve with proper management and/or professional training.
2) Recommended No Other Dogs:
• Flits may not suitable for a home with other dogs.
• Management: They should be the only dog in the household. Avoid dog parks, group walks, or introductions to unfamiliar dogs to maintain safety and reduce stress.
• Behaviors could improve with proper management and/or professional training.
3) On Prozac
• Do NOT stop medication without consulting your personal vet.
• MUST be tapered - stopping abruptly may cause negative effects.
