Pancho - Golden Retriever and Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Escondido, California

MEET PANCHO!



Pancho wasn't found... he found us.

At the time, this adorable little boy was just a tiny soul trying to find his way on the streets of Mexico. One day, he knew he had met the right person to get him off those streets! He followed him into a Home Depot. And just when his foster thought the little encounter was over, Pancho jumped right in his car as if to say, “Okay, I'm coming with you!”

And honestly, how could I possibly say no to that adorable little face?

But Pancho is so much more than just a cute face. He is one of the sweetest, most affectionate little souls you could ever meet. He's a little hugger! He stands up on his hind legs, wraps his little paws around your leg, and presses his head against you and gives the sweetest hug. It's absolutely impossible not to melt!!

And when you call his name? Oh, my goodness! He comes running toward you like you're the most exciting thing in the entire world! He is always so happy to come when he's called and that happiness is truly contagious. His enthusiasm, his affection, and his beautiful little spirit make him really special.

Now, at around a year and a half old, Pancho is still being fostered while we search for something truly special for him: his forever home.

He has so much love to give and deserves a family who will cherish his affectionate nature, appreciate his happy little spirit, and welcome all the hugs he has to offer. Someone who will smile when he comes running at the sound of his name and feel their heart melt when he wraps his little paws around their leg for a hug.

Could that special someone be you?

Please share to help Pancho find his forever family!
