This sweet pair of best friends Chloe and Joker were brought to the HSOV after hours on May 3, 2024 and taken inside the shelter by a Washington County Ohio Deputy Sheriff and our HSOV Executive Director. Thankfully a note was left with Chloe and Joker which gave their names and ages.
Chloe (pictured on the left) is 8-years old. She has a tan short smooth coat with a patch of white on her chest, a long tail, and a beautiful face with brown teddy bear eyes, black shading on her muzzle, and short semi-erect ears. Chloe weighs 117 lbs.
Joker (pictured on the right) is 11-years old. He has a dark brown/brindle-and-white short smooth coat, a long tail, and a handsome (rather mischievous-looking) face with a brindle-and-white 'phantom-of-the-opera' type mask, a black button nose, and large semi-erect ears. Joker weighs 51 lbs.
These photos were taken on May 4th 2024 when HSOV Volunteer Tracy Lynn and HSOV Kennel Tech Hannah Mcclain accompanied Chloe and Joker for their outdoor photo session.
We will post additional individual photos asap but wanted to share preliminary photos of Chloe and Joker together so that potential adopters would know that they are in our shelter and are looking for a loving home.
