Thank you for considering adopting one of CARA's Special pets! To apply read about our adoption policies here to fill out an application.

My name is Pico. I am one of the sweetest and most gentle dogs. I am mature at around 5 years old (best guess by rescue). I will sit very gently right infront of you and stare deep into your eyes. I am calm and gentle, but am quite strong on a leash. I was found roaming as a stray and then rescued when no family stepped forward.

I have been neutered now, but I sadly do have heartworms. If you are not familiar with heartworms feel free to ask the rescue for more info. They plan to pay for the cost of my treatment as long as my adopter will take me to my appointments. Heartworm treatment can take a long time to treat fully, and consists of me going to the vet at least once a month for several months.

I am just a really good boy. I DO NOT like to share my food with other animals. You can consider that my one set back. I hope to meet you soon!!

Every animal that comes into the CARA program is here because one or more events occurred that led to this animal needing not only a home, but a person or family to love and protect them. Each animal has been loved and cared for by a small and determined group of people who want nothing more than to know each animal is safe for the rest of his or her life. Thank you for looking to adopt!
