Habagat
Senior Dog
This handsome boy has the looks, unfortunately not the charisma. In fact, he’s quite a terrifying dog.
Growing old without getting socialized caused him to be deeply mistrustful of humans. Because of that, he spent almost 3 years in quarantine at the PAWS shelter, never graduating to the dog run or becoming eligible for adoption. While he is capable of showing and receiving affection to a VERY select few, he is still unpredictable and can be aggressive if mishandled.
Although we are not qualified dog trainers or behavior experts, we believe that Habagat can live out the rest of his days in a sanctuary setting where he has more freedom and more opportunities to interact with humans. We believe that BFFS can be his home.

Rescue Story
It’s a sad one… Habagat’s previous owner had passed away, and it was several days before the neighbors noticed it. They reported it to the authorities and noted that a dog was left alone and starving in the backyard. After the owner’s remains were retrieved, PAWS rescuers came to the site to get him and admit him to the shelter.
