Pima Animal Care Center takes in 88 Dogs, reaches record capacity

TUCSON, Ariz. — The Pima Animal Care Center (PACC) reached a record capacity of 628 dogs on Saturday evening after taking in 88 dogs from a single home.

The influx followed a call from the Tucson Police Department late Saturday night, notifying PACC’s Animal Protection Services team about a property facing condemnation.

PACC officials say that upon arrival, PACC officers discovered a large number of small terrier and Dachshund-type dogs, including several litters of puppies.

According to PACC, most of the dogs have been surrendered by their owner and are now undergoing medical and behavioral evaluations. Some dogs may be available for adoption or foster care as soon as today.

PACC urgently seeks fosters and adopters to help manage the increased number of dogs.

“Having 600 plus dogs in our shelter is a huge stress on our resources, staff, and volunteers,” said Monica Dangler, PACC’s director. “We need our community’s immediate help in fostering, adopting, and rescue transfers to keep our Pima County dogs safe, healthy, and happy.”

Dogs and puppies are currently free to adopt at PACC, and all pets adopted from PACC are microchipped, spayed or neutered, and given age-appropriate vaccines.

The Favicon for the website, dogsandpurses(dot)com, features an all-black background with a minimalist line drawing of a puppy's head poking out of a stylish purse. The puppy's head is drawn with a cute and friendly expression, making it the focal point of the design. The purse, which the puppy is emerging from, is depicted with clean, elegant lines. The contrast between the black background and the white line drawing creates a striking and modern look for the Favicon.
