Story
Meet Groot, or "Grootius Maximus," a 3-year-old male 100lb+ Akita! Groot is a large working breed dog who is also a gentle giant. True to his breed, Groot can be nervous if people approach him too quickly and he thrives with people who take their time to get to know his personality. Groot is bouncy and energetic with many people he has met during his time at CCHS and is a Doggie Day Out candidate, meaning he's taken field trips to local parks with volunteers! Due to Groot’s breed, you must submit an application prior to meeting him. In addition, all family members that live in the home are required to meet with Groot before adopting him. Groot would benefit from a home that is familiar with the breed and can advocate for him meeting new people. Give us a call and we’d love to tell you more about him! Groot is a STAFF FAVORITE pet! Here's what Adoption Staff member, Darrian, has to say about him: "Groot has been my favorite since the moment he got here. On the outside, he can seem big and intimidating, but he really is just a teddy. This giant softy gives the best cuddles and biggest kisses, especially if he knows you well. My favorite part of the day is going to visit him and getting to "dance" with him. When excited, he does little popcorns and hops in a circle, kind of like a guinea pig when it popcorns. I call it dancing because he'll start right up if I bounce along with him. He'll put his whole body weight into you just for more support while you pet all over him. He brings you his favorite toys to show them off and overall is just a real mush and sweetheart. You couldn't ask for a better pup!"

Meet Loki, the 1 year old Aussie/Bully mix. Affectionately dubbed the "Not-weiler" by our animal care staff, this sweet, lovable, and chunky boy is ready to be your new best friend. Loki has a positive history with other dogs, cats, and children! He's never met a stranger he didn't like, and has lots of love to give to everyone. Loki loves a good round of tug, fetch, or anything you're willing to give him. If you're looking for a dog to make you laugh, smile, and take up all the bed space at night, Loki is your guy.

Story
Tino is a sweet and loving Poodle who has been a beloved part of our family for many years. We adopted him when he was about 2 years old, and he has always been loved and well cared for. Tino is a senior dog who weighs about 57 lbs. He is friendly, affectionate, and good with children. Unfortunately, our child developed a severe allergy to dogs, so we can no longer keep Tino in our home. He has been staying with a trusted friend while we look for the right family for him. We are looking for a loving, safe, and stable forever home where Tino can be loved and cared for for the rest of his life.
