My story

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

Meet Chico!

Chico is a sweet little guy with a big heart and an even bigger capacity for love. This adorable cuddle bug was brought to the shelter and quickly found a home, but sadly, he was returned through no fault of his own. The resident dog in the home wasn’t very nice to Chico, and he’s now back in foster care, waiting for the forever family he truly deserves.

Chico is the perfect mix of snuggly and playful. He loves nothing more than curling up next to you on the couch, watching TV, and just being your little shadow. But don’t let his love for lounging fool you—Chico also has a playful side! He enjoys romping around the fenced yard at his foster home and having fun with his doggy friends. He gets along wonderfully with other dogs and would thrive in a home with a canine companion.

This little munchkin is food-motivated and eager to please, making training a breeze. He already walks well on a leash and enjoys his daily strolls. Whether you're looking for a walking buddy, a couch companion, or a playful pal, Chico checks all the boxes.

Chico would make a fantastic addition to a family with older kids (due to his smaller size) or anyone looking for a loyal, loving best friend. He’s full of joy, affection, and charm—and he’s ready to share it all with you.

Apply today to meet Chico and give this sweet boy the forever home he’s been waiting for!
