Lost Dog — Chihuahua Mix Near Riverview

May 12, 2026

Our beloved Paco is missing and we desperately need your help bringing him home.

Paco, a 5-6 year old Chihuahua mix weighing about 4 lbs, disappeared on May 9th from the Bloomingdale area of Riverview. He's a small boy with white and brown coloring, wearing a pink collar with a bell.

Paco is very timid and may hide if approached, so please be gentle if you spot him. He does respond to his name, but may be frightened.

If you live in the Valrico or greater Hillsborough County area, please keep an eye out for our sweet boy. Check your garages, sheds, and under bushes where a scared small dog might seek shelter. Even a brief sighting could help us locate him.

If you have any information, contact Hillsborough County Pet Resource Center at (813) 744-5660 or visit Hillsborough County Animal Services.

Thank you for caring.
