Meet Chappie, a sweet and friendly soul with a curious nature that will melt your heart. She's a funny dog, always ready to make you laugh with her playful antics. Chappie is smart too, quickly learning new tricks and commands. But it's her loyalty that truly stands out. She's always there for you, offering a comforting presence in good times and bad. Despite having inactive distemper, Chappie remains an energetic and loving companion. Her resilience is inspiring, reminding us that every life is precious and worth fighting for. Adopting Chappie means welcoming a bundle of joy into your life, a friend who will stick by your side no matter what. With her around, every day is a day filled with love, laughter, and unforgettable memories. So, open your heart and home to Chappie. Because everyone deserves a second chance at happiness, and so does she.

INTERESTED IN FOSTERING?

This pup is currently located at our Town Lake Animal Center (1156 W. Cesar Chavez, but use 1200 Reserve Road for mapping purposes). We'd love to show them off to you! To learn more about them, head in any day between 12:00PM - 6:00PM. We are open 7 days a week! Go to Building B and ask to speak with a Matchmaker about fostering this pup. You will sit down and discuss all we know about them and, if it's a good fit, get to meet them then! Please budget for a wait time unless you arrive right at opening as we cannot dictate walk-in traffic (wait times tend to be highest in the evenings and on weekends). If this pup ends up not being the best fit, we have so many other pups in need that we can suggest for your household on the spot!
