Centrino's Story

There is nothing better than the help of a stress-free and loving home for pets who are healing from illness or injury. That’s why we created Help Me Heal, a foster-to-adopt program for pets like Centrino. Centrino is currently healing from dental surgery. But Centrino doesn't have to wait in the shelter while he is healing - he can go to his future adopter's home through our Help Me Heal foster-to-adopt program.

Centrino is a little senior man who cannot wait to enjoy his golden years! He dreams of soft comfy beds and blankets to snooze on, and this boy has plenty of pep in his step and really enjoys walks outside. Centrino enjoys quieter neighborhoods for his strolls, so he can focus on the very important work of sniffing!

By choosing to foster and then adopt you’re helping Centrino transition into a forever family more quickly and with less anxiety. During the Help Me Heal foster period, PAWS even covers all medical care and medicine until your pet is medically cleared for adoption.

Centrino can’t wait to meet you!

If you’re interested in adopting this pet, please complete the following steps:

1. Start by taking our ComPETibility Quiz to make sure they’re a good fit for your home. Your ComPETibility Score will help you compare your home to each pet’s needs!

2. After completing your ComPETibility Quiz, you will be emailed a link to complete your Adoption Application.

3. After finishing the adoption application, complete the Adoption Inquiry Form! Once this form is submitted, our Adoption Team will take a look at your adoption inquiry and reach out within a few days.

Please note that while we can’t place holds on adoptable animals for your scheduled appointment, there are always plenty of homeless pets looking for a home! If you don’t meet the perfect pet, please feel free to complete a new Adoption Inquiry Form or visit our Adoption Center. Walk-ins are always welcome, but appointments are recommended for a more efficient visit!

Want another way to spend time with our adoptable (or soon-to-be-adoptable) pets? Consider fostering.
