Chico

My story

Meet Chico, a Shar-Pei mix looking for a foster, or even better, an adopter!This ham of a pup was an owner surrender because they were relocating abroad. As if this was not sad enough, Chico then faced euthanasia due to shelter overcrowding at PG County animal shelter a few weeks ago. He was saved literally a couple hours beforehand!Chico's previous family included children, and he was spoken very highly of. Chico is good with kids, other dogs AND even cats! He is approximately 5 years old and around 65-70 lbs. Chico may take some time to warm up, but once he does, he is playful and loyal! He just needs a little patience and a gentle environment.Chico has just completed board & train obedience training and is now ready for his furever home (or a foster home in the meantime)! (Now that training is over, he does still need to be neutered.) Adoption fee: $525, includes all shots, sterilized, heartworm negative, dewormed, flea preventative, microchip   If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application and a representative will get back to you shortly to answer any questions you may have.

See our calendar of adoption events at https://fancycats.org/(scroll towards bottom) You can save animals like this one by becoming a foster! Fosters are like bridges between high kill shelters and forever homes. We need fosters so that we can save cats and dogs before they are euthanized at the shelters.
