My story

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

Choo Choo is a six-month-old Catahoula mix who is now available for adoption. She came to us after a concerned citizen reported finding a crate containing two dogs abandoned near a dumpster outside her apartment complex. When our animal control officer arrived, both dogs were shivering, thin, and covered in feces and urine. Once in our care, Choo Choo began receiving vaccines, soothing baths, and a nutritious food plan to help her gain weight and recover. Thanks to the care and patience of our team, she has blossomed into a happy, playful puppy. Choo Choo loves going on walks, playing with our volunteers, and enjoying treat time—her tail wiggles nonstop with excitement. She does not do well with other animals and is requiring to be the only pet at this time. Her adoption fee is $200, which includes her vaccines, fecal exam, deworming, current heartworm/flea prevention, heartworm test, registered microchip, and spay. She is already fixed!
