The Pima Animal Care Center is expected to see an additional 400 dogs brought in this week.
Jamie Donnelly For the first time in five years, the Pima Animal Care Center may have to start euthanizing dogs this week due to critical overcrowding as it houses three to four times more dogs than normal.
On Tuesday, Monica Dangler, the director at PACC, said they may have to start euthanizing dogs, making it the first time since the new shelter opened in 2017 that they would have to take such action. People are also reading… The week after July 4 is historically the busiest week of the year for the shelter, the news release said. PACC is expected to see an additional 400 dogs brought in this week. Before the holiday weekend, PACC was already extremely full with 490 dogs.
Community members can help the shelter by adopting or fostering medium to large sized dogs. Another way to help is to hang on to stray animals. Pets that stay in the neighborhood where they are found have an 80% chance of making it back home.
