My story

The next time you think of using the analogy of something “multiplying like rabbits,” consider instead the analogy, “spreading seeds like a birch tree.” Did you know that birch trees can produce up to ONE MILLION seeds a year?! Wow! While our pup Birch will not be multiplying or spreading any seeds, he hopes to find an understanding and loving family to whom he can give one million snuggles over the course of his life!One of our volunteers who loves working with shy pups has been getting to know Birch- here’s what they had to say:“Birch has remarkably improved in socialization with people, confidence, trust and walking skills. I have been working with him inside his kennel and then taken him to yards the first few times to get used to the outside. He leashes pretty easily and comes out of his kennel and walks on his own. He is still fearful of walking by the other dogs’ kennels, but once beyond the gate and into the parking lot, he starts to relax. He has been on walks to the park a few times now and sits, takes treats gently, and accepts prolonged petting. He walks slowly and more evenly on a leash and has a very sweet, calm personality. He comes from a large litter and enjoys the company of his two siblings when we are able to take them out together. He would do well and probably even better with another dog in the household.”Birch is in need of FHO hip surgery, the cost of which will 100% be covered by PACC while he is in foster care. Consider fostering him, helping him get to tip-top shape, and then when he’s all better, you get first dibs at adopting this great boy!Sweet Birch has shown that with consistency, love and patience, he is a FANTASTIC dog! Come and meet him today!

If you have any questions or would like to adopt BIRCH*, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
