Cute Paco is an 8 year old, medium-size Crossbreed (weighs 11 kilos) who is being fostered in family home with children and other dogs in Gloucestershire provided by Starfish Dog Rescue.

Paco came into Starfish’s care 4 years ago. He was born in Spain and lived with a man who became very poorly and had to give him up. The Rescue agreed to help find him a home in the U.K. and he was fostered in a family home. He was a true gent and pleasure to foster, got on well with the other dogs and loved the children. He was adopted by an older man as that was what he was used to where he has been living for the past 4 years.

Unfortunately, this man died and Paco came back into the Rescue’s care. It was very upsetting as he had not seen a vet since adoption; he was having problems with his skin, ears and was tested for Leishmania, a disease dogs can pick up in Spain. Unfortunately, the test results came back positive and he was suffering with very low white blood cells and was terribly anaemic. His medication is a 28 day course and, all being well, the disease will go into remission and he will just require one tablet a day and yearly blood tests.

Now Paco has started his medication, he is like a different dog and is back to the cheeky little lad, happy and great with everyone he meets. He has been lovely with the children, happy living with the other dogs and he is a very easy dog to love.

Paco has lots of lovely videos which you can watch by scrolling down his page here.

Pace loves to go shopping for toys and has dined out at coffee shops, tried to shop-lift in garden centres and generally been a little star. He is extremely easy to live with, good with the other dogs, travels well, is house-trained and very friendly with everyone. Paco will suit a retired couple with or without other dogs.
