My story

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

Archie-male-neutered-3 years Meet Archie! If you're looking for a goofy, playful and happy boy, please consider Archie. Archie came to CCHS as a stray where he remained unclaimed, and he is now available for adoption. Archie is around 45 pounds. He is energetic and loves to go out and romp and play in our dog play yards. He LOVES to play fetch and he would keep playing until dinnertime if you let him. Archie has the best ears and coloring. He has a little white patch on his chest that he proudly wears like a badge. Archie does play with other dogs; he just needs to be taught boundaries! Archie can be a bit much for some dogs and he tends to match the energy of another dog. He can get overly excited if another dog does. He would be a great dog to adopt and start training classes right with. He would enjoy learning new things, be taught some manners and would love to share that experience with his new owner. Can you give this handsome and athletic dog a home? Apply to meet him at www.cchswi.org DATCP License #266742-DS

Adoption Policy

Anyone wishing to adopt an animal must fill out an application and go through a screening process.
Applications are available either at the shelter or on-line.
Every effort is made to match the family and animal who are right for each other.
Same-day adoptions are allowed on already altered dogs and cats. Dog owners should bring their dogs to meet the adoptable dogs. You should have veterinary references available for your current pets. You should also have landlord information available, a leash/collar for dogs and a cat carrier for cats. If you pick an animal that has not yet been altered, you will have to wait for the surgery to be performed before taking it home.
CCHS has the right to deny any application for any reason.
