Paçoca’s story began in silence and suffering. He and his family, his mother Pepita and three siblings, had been locked inside a room on a neighboring property with no food or water. It was only when one of the puppies became trapped in a gate and cried out that our sanctuary staff heard them. One of our team members jumped the fence and discovered them starving and dehydrated, hidden away and forgotten. That cry for help saved them all. Their owner had zero interest in them, so we rescued the entire family. Today, Paçoca is still living at our sanctuary, alongside his sister Judite and their mom, Pepita. He’s grown into a handsome boy who loves playing with his sister and napping in the sun. Though his start in life was filled with neglect, he’s never known anything but kindness since coming into our care. Life at the sanctuary comes with daily needs… food, vet visits, and deworming. Sponsoring Paçoca helps us provide everything he requires to stay safe, healthy, and loved.
