Meet General Tso! General Tso is the first face you'll see when you walk into the pavilion, curled up or sitting quietly, just watching and waiting hoping that someone will come say hello. He's a total lover, happy in his own company with a good toy but also loves leaning in and belly rubs. He came to the shelter when he was left behind in his home. He's been waiting over a month for his forever family patient as ever. Come meet him!! To see General Tso in action, click HERE and HERE.

For more information on General Tso and the many other dogs waiting patiently to be rescued, click HERE or visit their Facebook page: CACC Adoptable Pets. To learn more about fostering, click HERE.
