About:
Cochise was a 9th-century Chiricahua Apache leader who is remembered for bringing peace to his people. Our sweet gal Cochise is also a big proponent of peace- she dreams of a calm, loving home where she can spend her days peacefully relaxing and being loved by her family!
Cochise is a sensitive girl who isn’t cut out for life in a crowded shelter. She spends several days a week at the offsite location of PACC’s rescue partner, Tucson Rescue Now. This is a quieter environment where pups can snooze on couches and schmooze with visitors. Here’s what the TRN staff said:
“Cochise arrived at PACC after her person passed. She was pretty shut down (understandably), and shelter life makes her nervous. In her time away from the shelter, she is really beginning to open up! She walks nicely on leash and loves her walks along quiet routes. She is a pleasant walking partner and she rarely pulls. While she’s not big into toys yet, she does enjoy yummy treats and gentle pets. We love to see Cochise smiling and feeling good! She is very obedient and stays right by your side in the play yard. Just this week, we discovered she enjoys trotting along with you if you run back and forth, the length of the play yard. She also jumps up to interact with someone who stops at the play yard walls to watch her. She is an absolute gem, she makes no noise, is gentle and so tolerant. At TRN, she is learning to trust again and she enjoys naps and cuddles next to the people that she feels safe with. She is looking for a calm loving place to call home.”
During a brief adoption Cochise was well- behaved when left home alone and was described as an affectionate couch potato. She bonds deeply with her trusted humans and deserves all the love in the world.
Cochise spent some time in a home where it was discovered that she can be protective of her person around other animals. Due to this she will need to either be the only dog in the home or will need to have space dedicated for her and her alone away from other pets. If you have a spot in your heart and your home for a pup who needs a soft place to land, please ask about Cochise!
Available for long term foster care (30+ days) or adoption through PACC.
Interested parties:
Must visit PACC before the COB Thursday April 16th, 2026 deadline to meet with a counselor who will review notes and introduce you to the dog to ensure that it’s a good fit. Some dogs may also require an introduction to any dogs they may potentially live with.
Home Management Plan
Resource Guards Attention From Dogs: Cochise has started altercations with other dogs in her previous home due to not wanting to share her person with the other dogs. This led to a near miss bite when the owner was trying to keep the dogs separate.
•Cochise may guard human attention or affection from other dogs, particularly around their favorite people. This behavior can lead to tension or conflict if not managed carefully.
• Professional Support: Establish firm, consistent boundaries and seek guidance from a qualified trainer to develop safe management and redirection techniques.
• Management Around Other Dogs: If they begin showing signs of guarding (blocking, growling, stiffening, or posturing), calmly stand up and walk away to remove the valued resource - your attention.
• Balanced Attention: Divide attention equally between all pets in the home and reward calm, neutral behavior when other dogs approach.
• Training Focus: Practice structured exercises such as “stay” and “place” to help them learn impulse control and patience when attention is shared.
