Story
Meet Louie 💙 Louie is a stunning 3-year-old blue Chow Chow with a classic Chow personality and a heart that’s ready to heal. He’s incredibly handsome, calm by nature, and quietly confident — the kind of dog who brings a peaceful presence wherever he goes. Louie has a wonderful balance of energy and relaxation. He enjoys his walks and exploring the world, but he’s also content to lounge and take life at an easy pace. He’s not over-the-top or demanding — just a solid, loyal companion who wants to be near his people. Unfortunately, Louie didn’t have the best start in life. He experienced neglect and spent long periods confined to a crate. Because of this, he developed a fear of men, likely due to a negative experience with a male in his previous home. That said, with patience, consistency, and kindness, Louie can learn to trust men — and he is already making wonderful progress with his foster dad. Louie naturally prefers women and bonds with them quickly, forming deep and meaningful connections. He thrives in a calm, understanding home where his boundaries are respected and his trust is allowed to grow at his own pace. Louie requires a securely fenced yard (physical fencing only — no underground or invisible fences) so he can safely enjoy outdoor time and feel secure in his environment. Louie is a truly special dog who just needs the right person — someone who understands the Chow breed, values loyalty, and is willing to give him the love and security he’s always deserved. In return, you’ll gain a devoted companion who will quietly choose you every day. 💙 If you’re looking for a loyal, soulful Chow with so much love to give, Louie may be your perfect match.

Story
TYRON is a 5 year old Chow Chow / German Shepherd who came to us when his owner’s living arrangements changed. He flunked the intake exam at several other shelters so here he is and we are still trying to figure him out. Tyron is a big boy! He doesn’t like a lot of physical touch but he LOVES his walks! Tyron will allow us to briefly brush his top line and pull out a few puffs but he is generally grumbly with handling and we fully sedated him at the vet for his spring shave. Tyron appears to want to play with other dogs and his previous owner took him to the dog park (which we don’t recommend but it does show that he may be fine living with another pup). Tyron needs an experienced dog savvy family who can work around his quirks to make him be all the dog he can be. We are looking for an adult-only home within reasonable driving distance so that we can facilitate several meet and greets and slowly integrate Tyron into your home. Tyron has been vaccinated, tested negative for heartworms and tick borne diseases, is microchipped and neutered. Please fill out an application at www.CompAnimals.org if you are interested in providing a home for Tyron. Adoption $200. June 23, 2025, 1:08 am

Story
SIMBA IS IN HIS FOSTER HOME IN MEMPHIS, TN, AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED TO PA ONCE ADOPTED!    Simba is shy at first, but warms up.  That is classic chow chow behavior. His lovely reddish coat is more labrador like.  Known for their loyal nature, chows may not be the life of the party, but they love movie night with their family! He is friendly to other low key dogs. When he met a younger small dog, his body language relaxed completely and his tail went to wagging.   He is house trained, crate trained, walks well on lead, and loves a car ride. He is treat motivated and a quick learner. He is wary of strangers (to him) that approach the fenced yard, which is pretty standard for the chow breed. They are known to be protective of their family.  Simba's best home will have a secure fence and medium activity level, where he can take walks with his family or hang out on the couch. A previous history of excellent vet care for current or previous pets is required. We have not kid tested Simba, so we would not place in a home where there is a lot of activity without additional assessment.  If you love the chow breed without the chow fluff, Simba will be a great companion. He is fully vetted. Vetting includes spay/neuter, microchip, rabies and all puppy vaccinations. His adoption fee of $600 includes the transport to PA. We use a licensed and registered USDA transport company that will bring Simba up north to his new family.   If you have any questions, please email us at: newbeginnings_animalrescue@yahoo.com   You can apply to adopt Simba here: www.newbeginningsanimalrescue.net   THANK YOU FOR CONSIDERING ADOPTING A RESCUED PET!

Story
The votes are IN and we ARE the WINNERS!! Found at the side of a country road (very common dumping ground, next to the railroad tracks), and saved by a wonderful "foster" and her husband and son and other doggy friends :) We started living like REAL loved puppies the day she saved us!! We are learning potty training and are crate trained experts!! We are leash training as well, but you have to understand.... we were never loved, never lived IN a home and NEVER had ANYONE CARE!!! So, potty trained or not, we are over the moon (and so is our foster mom). But now it is time to find our furever homes! We love and play very well together and would be ideal as a pair, but do NOT have to be adopted together. We need another calm and confident dog to keep us happy/played with and to teach us all we need to know about being loved pups :) We are gorgeous pups and our coats will accent your hair :) ADOPT...DON'T SHOP!!! Local adoption fee is $250 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)
