Story
Sebastian is an incredibly loving dog that needs a home with people that have time and energy for him. He loves to run around so a backyard would be great for him. He loves our cats and is a big fan of playing with other dogs. He can be a bit anxious about people, and has some guard dog tendencies around where we live (will bark and growl at people). He loves treats and chew toys but will tear up any stuffed toy impressively fast. He's a big cuddle bug and loves to lay in bed with his people.

Story
Jack is a sweet senior dog, around 12 years old, looking for a loving home after his owner suffered a serious fall and can no longer care for him. He’s happiest simply being near his people — snoozing on the couch, following you from room to room, and soaking up back scratches and pets.Jack still has a playful side! He loves fetch, barking at squirrels, and solving treat puzzles like a pro. Though he spent most of his life as an only dog, he’s currently thriving in a foster home with another dog and enjoys the farmer's market.Jack was rescued years ago after experiencing neglect and abuse early in life. With love and training, he’s become a gentle, loyal companion. He can be a little shy at first, but warms up quickly, especially if treats are involved.If you’re looking for a quiet, loving best friend to keep you company, Jack is ready to meet you.

Charlie is a 2 and a half year old male shepherd mix available for adoption at CCHS! Volunteers describe him as "a big happy, curious, energetic boy that sees the world as a wonderful place to explore. He is good-natured and doesn't seem scared of anything. He is up for anything, and just needs some humans to accompany him for exploration trips, or to throw the ball for him!"

Story
Esha is a 9-year-old female pit mix available for adoption at CCHS! Esha has found her way to our facility a few times since she was a young dog, but came here most recently after being found running at large in Western Indiana. She's been around! Esha definitely does not "act" like a senior gal, as she has quite a bit of energy and spunk left in her. Come meet Esha at CCHS! Esha is a VOLUNTEER FAVORITE pet! Here's what dog socializer, Stephanie, has to say about her: "Esha, or Lady E as I like to call her, is an amazing doggo! I never would have guessed her age. She's a sassy senior with plenty to offer anyone lucky enough to adopt her. She's always happy to see me and will snuggle once she gets her wiggles out and realizes I won't stop trying . There's also a level of independence and confidence that I love. Every time I leave her, her eyes tell me she belongs in a home and she absolutely deserves that kind of security in her senior years ."
