My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

🐾 **Introducing CJ: The Charming Canine Companion!** 🐶

Meet CJ, a wonderful dog who's recently enjoyed the comforts of a foster home and is now ready to find his forever family.

**Name:** CJ 🐕
**Experience:** House Trained, Excellent on Leash
**Social Skills:** Gets Along Well with Most Dogs
**Personality:** Warm, Calm, and Affectionate

**CJ's Story:**
During his 7-week stay in foster care, CJ thrived in a home environment. He's house trained, a delight to walk on a leash, and a social butterfly who gets along with most dogs. His warm, calm, and affectionate disposition makes him a perfect companion.

**CJ's Ideal Day:**
- CJ enjoys the simple pleasures of life, like morning and afternoon walks through the neighborhood. He's your ideal walking partner.

- He's a smart pup who knows basic commands, but he's also playful and has a knack for chasing squirrels. CJ's "Marmaduke" moments will bring laughter and joy to your home.

**Adoption Information:**
CJ is ready to be a loyal and loving member of your family. Are you ready to welcome this charming companion into your life?

Don't miss the opportunity to have CJ as your furry friend. If you're interested in giving CJ a loving forever home, please reach out to [Contact Information] and start the journey with this easygoing and wonderful dog. 🏡🐾❤️

More about this shelter

The City of Hopewell Animal Shelter is run by the Animal Control Officers. We fall under the Hopewell Police Department and train accordingly to serve the animals and the public of Hopewell. Our shelter is currently a small scale shelter with 28 dog kennels and 14 cat cages.

Our shelter is often full. We work hard to find our animals that are not claimed by an owner a new home or an approved rescue.

Most of our animals at our facility are animals that were found running loose that no one came to look for. We do often get animals in from owner surrenders where the previous owners can no longer care for them. At times we also seize animals and they will eventually need forever homes or rescue.

Come on down to the City of Hopewell and meet the wonderful Animal Control Officers and the Shelter staff that care for the animals on a daily basis.
