My story

Meet Nacho! Nacho is a 3 year old, tiny, bundle of love (4 lbs) searching for the perfect family! Like many dogs, Nacho grew up on the streets of Mexico. He is also insanely adorable and bursting with a big silly personality. Nacho loves making and playing with new dog friends and playing with his toys too. He LOVES to be warm and comfortable, and he is potty trained too! He's an adventurous explorer, always discovering new things around the house and backyard with keen curiosity. He doesnt need walks and he simply loves being in a safe house with a yard. He’s still learning to express his affection with humans and we know from experience that with time, he WILL eventually allow himself to be loved, pet, and snuggled. For now, it is hands off and encouragement with treats and kindness. Nacho is looking for a home where his people will give him time, and let him come to them when he is ready! He is neutered, vaccinated, and ready to begin his new life. Please do not apply unless you understand that he needs TIME. By that, we mean weeks or even months. Some take longer than others...some tame up real fast! If you are interested, please contact colleen@startrescue.org

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