My personality

My story

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

Meet Mystique!

This gorgeous girl is a 3–5-year-old Chow Chow, weighing in at 43 pounds. Mystique had a pittie brother she loved to play with, but sadly, both were abandoned in an apartment. We don’t know how long they were left alone, but thankfully someone discovered them while clearing out the unit. Her brother has since been adopted — now it’s Mystique’s turn to find her forever home.

Mystique has clearly been through a lot. She landed on the euthanasia list with just days to spare, but the shelter staff rallied for her. She was a favorite there, and their support bought her precious time.

As with many Chows, Mystique was hesitant about affection at first, but it only took a few hours for her to start warming up. On the ride home, she was anxious — stress-panting and refusing to lie down — but once she arrived at her foster’s home, she gave a sweet, gentle lick… a true Purple Kiss of Approval! (If you know Chows, you know how special that is.)

Now that she’s settling in, Mystique loves zooming around the yard before lounging on the deck, gazing out from the same spot her foster sister Autumn loves. She’s happiest with room to roam, so a home with a fenced yard or an active adopter who enjoys hiking would be ideal.

Like many Chows, she’s not food motivated, but she’s catching on with leash training and respects the boundaries of a gated room. Mystique gets along well with the other dogs in her foster home, and we’d love to find her a home with a furry sibling to play with. Once comfortable, she blossoms into a goofy, lovable girl full of personality.

Mystique is spayed, up to date on vaccinations, and heartworm negative.

More about this rescue

Furry Animals Being Saved Rescue, Inc. was founded by a dedicated woman committed to the mission of saving the lives of homeless dogs and cats. After getting knocked down several times in the rescue community she decided to branch off and create her own rescue so her mission will go on uninterrupted. FABS Rescue is a foster-based, non-breed specific rescue with an emphasis on the Chow Chow breed, a breed that is very misunderstood. We are based out of Northern Connecticut. FABS Rescue relies on the generosity of volunteers and donors to provide medical care, training, and daily care to dogs and cats at risk of euthanasia. We are committed to helping one homeless shelter animal at a time. Please help us to fulfill our mission.
