He will need training with his manners and setting boundaries in the house, he is not use to a home life- all he seems to know is the shelter routine.

Story
Chichi is an amazing little dog who is just the sweetest girl you'll ever want to meet! So much personality and love!!She came to us through social services as her owner past away and the only other member of the family was not able to care for her. She was well loved but not well cared for medically. At 9 years old, Chichi had not been spayed and had severe mastitis as a result. A bouncy and happy dog on the outside but in so much pain on the inside. Tough as nails, she has now recovered from her surgeries and is looking for her forever home.Chichi is in foster but can easily come to the shelter for you to meet her. Chichi loves to be around people and especially happy to snuggle up on the couch with you. A regular routine has shown she is housetrained and doesn't like being crated. She does sleep through the night in her own bed. Chichi is used to having her people around most of the time so retired or work from home situation would be ideal. Chichi deserves to have a quiet loving home where she can enjoy short walks (but she is faster than she looks), lots of of love and a routine that will ensure her a happy healthy life from now on!If you would like to meet Chichi please contact info@uppercredit.com or call 519.833.2287

Story
Georgie would be foster to adopt - He still needs to be neutered when he is age appropriate. Georgie is a lovely boy who needs someone who will help him navigate the world with confidence. He is a timid and will need socializing training. He is a pup so he will need basic command training as well. He is house broken- will need to get use to routine of house. He is slowly but surely coming out of his shell at the shelter, but would thrive much better once he is in a home he feels comfortable in. He enjoys back rubs and short walks to bond with you. He will be an adventure learning more and more about him as he comes more out of his shell and grows! If you have any questions about Georgie or would like to make an appointment to meet him, please contact the shelter at 519.833.2287or email at info@uppercredit.com
