Story
Meet Chowder! 🦁 3.5 year old | Chow Chow If you know and love Chow Chows, you'll know there's something truly special about earning the trust of one. Chowder is everything people adore about the breed. Calm, independent, incredibly loyal, and once you've won his heart, he'll love you with his whole. When you first meet Chowder, he may be a little reserved. That's just who he is. Like a true Chow, he prefers to take his time getting to know new people. But once you've become part of his circle, his personality completely changes. He'll greet you with his signature "Chow bounce," happily wagging and bouncing around because his favorite person is finally home. Chowder has a wonderfully laid back personality and enjoys a quieter lifestyle. He's perfectly content relaxing by your side, lounging in the yard taking in all the sights and smells, or stretching out on the couch or bed close to his family. He also loves spending time in his kennel and happily uses it as his own safe place when the door is left open. He's kennel trained, knows his basic commands, and is highly food motivated, making continued training fun and rewarding. He also has a playful side and never says no to a tennis ball or cooling off in a kiddie pool on a warm summer day. Chowder absolutely loves other dogs and would enjoy having a canine companion around his own size with a similar energy level. Because he's never lived with cats, we're looking for a cat free home. He's also never been around children, so we think he'd be happiest in an adult home where life is a little quieter and more predictable. As with many independent breeds, Chowder isn't a dog who can be trusted off leash. He enjoys leisurely walks and exploring the outdoors, but he'll need to stay on leash anytime he's outside of a securely fenced yard. A fenced yard where he can safely lounge, patrol, and enjoy the fresh air would be a dream come true. Because Chowder is such a wonderful example of his breed, we're looking for a home with previous Chow Chow experience or someone who truly understands and appreciates the unique personality that comes with them. If you're looking for a calm, incredibly loyal companion who will quietly become your shadow and reward your patience with a lifetime of devotion, Chowder is ready to find his person. ❤️

Story
Hi there! I’m basically your shadow with four legs and a wagging tail. If you’re looking for a dog who believes personal space is wildly overrated, I’m your girl. My favorite place in the world is right next to my person — on the couch, in the hammock, on a walk, supervising you in the kitchen, or curled up beside you while you relax. I’m a calm, affectionate sweetheart who loves cuddles just as much as I love making people laugh. If you pet me, I will absolutely lean my whole body into you like it’s my full-time job. I’m pretty laid back around the house and totally content lounging nearby with a puzzle toy or squeaky ball, but don’t let that fool you — I also love adventures! Walks are my favorite thing ever, and I’m happy no matter how long they are. I enjoy runs, sniffing new things, and playing fetch… although I like to add my own special version called “keep away first, fetch second.” One of my funniest habits is proudly bringing my toy back by casually walking past you first like I’m in a parade before finally handing it over. I’m super curious, confident around traffic and new environments, and smart enough to figure just about anything out… which brings us to my next disclaimer. I’m an extremely talented escape artist. Seriously. Houdini would be impressed. I love my people so much that being left alone is very hard for me, and I do have separation anxiety. If no one is around, I may sing you the saddest songs of my people while trying to engineer my escape from even the toughest kennel setup. But if someone is nearby? I can happily relax in my kennel all day without making a peep. Because of that, I’d thrive in a home where someone is around most of the time — work-from-home humans, stay-at-home families, retirees, or anyone who wants a constant companion would be my dream come true. I should also confess that I’m a bit of a counter surfer and opportunistic snack thief, so keeping food out of reach is definitely part of loving me! I’m potty trained on a schedule, though may have the occasional accident if unattended. I am great on leash, and I already know how to kennel on command once I trust you. I adore kids and greet everyone with excited tail wags and play bows, but I should mention I don’t quite understand that tiny humans may not appreciate surprise face kisses and enthusiastic jumping. I do best with male dogs and should avoid living with other female dogs as I have had past guarding behavior. I can not share my space with cats or other small pets. I would love to be the only pet.   I’m just a goofy, stubborn, loving girl who wants to be adored as much as I adore my people. Give me your attention, your couch, and a secure “Alcatraz-level” kennel setup, and I’ll give you endless love, loyalty, laughs, and companionship in return.

Dakota is a handsome name, kind of a "rugged" kind of name, right?? I am kind of a REFINED RUGGED kind of boy! NOT!! I am a snuggle bug looking for tummy scratches....I willl MELT for one!! Here is what one of our amazing fosters have to say about Dakota...."Super freaking sweet, loves loves belly rubs, is very strong when you walk him but listens well. VERY treat motivated and knows sit down paw and i just taught him roll over yesterday but its a work in progress 😝. Super playful, he will pounce around you and then roll over for belly rubs and absolutely melts for the belly rubs and kisses" I love playing and running with my doggy friends, however, I can lay at your feet very sweetly to beg for your attention. I am kind of like a "reverse" planter as well. I mean, you plant it and i will un-plant it for you :D I won't do it often, just when I want your attention and I am outside alone. So see?? you have great control over that urge! So I am a food and toy lover too, I eat out of a slow feeder bowl because wolfing down my food is not an option! I am learning all things toys and am actually learning how to bring the ball BACK after you throw it. I am a smart and very sweet boy. I do absolutely have a prey drive so no kitties for small furry mammals around me please. I am fully potty trained and great in a crate. Now i just need you to adopt me to complete my circle of life. Now, before you go all "Lion King" on me, just know that I will be your bestest buddy forever!! I am two VERY loyal breeds and once I know you are my family, you will have my unending love :) Local adoption fee is $300(in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $550 (includes transport to your area)
