My Story

My name is Pancho and I am a good boy. I am 1 year and 3 months old and I am an American Pit Bull Terrier mix and I was found near 7300 Block S Kimbark Ave in Chicago's Chatham neighborhood. I have been waiting for someone to save me at Chicago Animal Care and Control since August 21. I am homeless and I really need to find my forever home soon. ⏳ Please come and visit me at the shelter. 🙏

Are You Thinking About Adopting Pancho?

If you are considering adopting Pancho, spending time together at CACC may help you better understand how (he/she) responds during walks, play, and quieter moments of interaction. Some dogs immediately become playful while others take a little more time before relaxing around new people.

Outdoor interaction may include walks, toys, tennis balls, treats, or time spent together in enclosed areas depending on shelter conditions and the dog's comfort level that day. Indoor interaction rooms may also be available during poor weather or busier shelter activity.

People with existing pets at home sometimes ask staff about helping introductions happen gradually after adoption. Families may also choose to visit together so everyone has an opportunity to interact with Pancho directly.

The first few days after adoption often involve patience, consistency, and allowing the dog time to settle into unfamiliar surroundings. Some dogs adjust quickly while others need more gradual transition periods before routines begin feeling comfortable.

For many adopters, bringing Pancho home becomes easier to picture after spending direct time together during a visit.
