***MY ADOPTION FEE IS SPONSORED***Meet Paw Paw (also known as Mr. Paws)! Paw Paw (born approx January 2016) is a unique little senior cattle dog. He has quite the unfortunate background and will require a very special adopter. He is fully grown and an ideal weight for him is around 35lbs! If you know cattle dogs, you probably know they can simply LOOK at food and gain weight. He is fully vaccinated, neutered, microchipped, and SOOO ready for his perfect home!Paw Paw is a unanimous volunteer favorite here at the shelter. This blogpost was written shortly after he came to us back in 2021. https://fomas.org/posts/from-isolated-to-hopeful-paw-paw-s-story/Paw Paw absolutely LOVES having a canine lady friend. His lady friends have come and gone through the shelter as they get adopted. He also loves having a routine and because of this he seems to be very comfortable at the shelter. (Dare I say...maybe he even enjoys life there?) He prefers to be outside and so his ideal home is somewhere he would be allowed to live primarily outdoors with a place to come into when he chooses. He loves female dogs but seems to have a bone to pick with other males. He could do well with submissive males…

In the rescue's own words, as they published it.

How adopting Paw Paw works

Mountainair Animal Control Shelter decides every adoption: its application, its fee, its home check and its timing. Everybarn only shows this animal on the rescue's behalf, takes no payment and passes no messages.
