Chencha | 3-Year-Old Collie/German Shepherd Mix | 40 lbs of Energy and Heart
Chencha is a stunning 40-pound Collie/German Shepherd mix with a playful personality and an enormous heart. At three years old, she's a high-energy, affectionate girl who loves being as close to her people as possible - paws in your lap, head under your hand, ready for pets at all times.
She is almost fully house trained and understands that potty time happens outside. She'll stand by the door to let you know she needs to go and does best with a consistent schedule.
Chencha thrives on activity and would do best in a very active home with a securely fenced yard. She loves running, playing, and especially romping with other energetic dogs. A daily jog, hike, or long game of fetch would be right up her alley. After a good play session, she's happy to sploot and recharge. On leash, she's still building confidence and working through some reactivity, but she improves as the walk continues and will benefit from continued positive reinforcement.
Chencha can also be vocal, especially when she's excited or alerting to something, so she would not be a good fit for apartment living. A single-family home with space to move and play would be ideal for her.
She enjoys toys, tug-of-war, chew bones, water play, and brushing. Because of her enthusiastic (and sometimes clumsy) play style, she would likely do best with older children.
Chencha is ready for a patient, active, loving family who will continue helping her grow in confidence while embracing her joyful, silly spirit. In return, she'll bring nonstop fun, loyalty, and plenty of impressive sploots.
If you and the dog are a good match then we'll connect you with our dog's foster parents to chat more in-depth. If both you and the foster agree that the dog is a good fit then a meet and greet is scheduled. We require applicants' dogs to meet ours to ensure they get along. We'll ask you to read and sign our adoption agreement and pay the adoption fee to complete the adoption when it comes time. Our adoption fees help cover the costs of saving more lives! A home visit will be scheduled within one week of your new pet going home with you.
The adoption fee for this pet is $375. Our adoption fee covers the following:
Spay/neuter
Microchip
DAPP vaccinations as age-appropriate for the dog.
Rabies vaccinations as age-appropriate for the dog.
Adopters shall be responsible for all vaccinations after adoption.
