My story

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


Meet Chris!
Personality: Goofy Derp Deluxe
Likes: Playful silliness and human affection

Chris is a pit bull mix who pretends to be shy… for about five whole seconds. Then, with a couple of gentle pets and a treat or two, he melts into full-on “you’re my best friend now” mode. This handsome gray boy has unbelievably soft fur, a big sweet face, and a heart that just wants to love and be loved. He’s the perfect combo of goofy playball energy and total love bug—with a charming little dash of derp that only makes him more irresistible. Chris knows sit, walks well on leash, and takes his treats with the gentleness of a gentleman and seems interested in other dogs. His demeanor is calm, kind, and wonderfully endearing, making him the kind of dog who fits into your life like he was always meant to be there.

Fun Fact: He’s great at making the most hilarious facial expressions! Bring Chris home and enjoy the soft fur, sweet vibes, and happy derpiness every single day!
