Meet Chocolate - every bit as sweet as her name suggests! Chocolate came into our care as a stray after being found wandering in the city of Fillmore. The finders were able to lure her into their car, and upon arrival at the shelter, she calmly hopped out and walked right up to our Animal Care staff. Rather than bolting, she happily accepted a leash and headed inside. Once in the shelter, she was easy to vaccinate and quickly showed us her affectionate side by actively seeking attention from staff even though vaccines are often stressful!Our volunteers have had the opportunity to spend time with Chocolate and have wonderful things to say about her. She has been designated as an `easy` dog, meaning any of our dog-walking volunteers can take her out. They report that she is easy to leash, does not jump up, and pays little attention to surrounding dogs while out and about. She walks nicely on leash with minimal pulling and appears to know several commands, including `sit,` `down,` and `paw.`We did an on-leash introduction of Chocolate to our large dog playgroups. She approached a large male Pit Bull mix with a rapid wagging tail, soft body language, playful bouncing, and several play bows. She did great!Chocolate has been an absolute love. We would love to see this special girl find a placement where she can continue to receive the care she needs as a sweet senior while enjoying all the comforts of a home instead of the shelter.
