Nice Guy & Constant Companion!
He likes other dogs, loves to play and is good with cats. He’s a little shy with new people but he is a gentle soul who warms up quickly, especially if he can have treats! He loves chewy toys and squeaky toys.
He’s doing very well on his potty training. He is good at going outside, and he will also use wee-wee pads indoors.
He’s a great work-from-home companion. He’ll hang out in his dog bed and play with his toys while you work, although he’s happy to sit on your lap and join your Zoom meetings.
He’s learning commands like Sit and Stay, and he loves practicing positive reinforcement. He walks well on a leash.
He does need human companionship and wouldn’t be a good fit for a home where he would have to be alone, and he will also need some training and support for separation anxiety.
Your Next Steps
Adoption Process
1. Complete an Adoption Application form.
2. Applicants are screened and reviewed together with the dog’s foster. If your application is selected, you will receive an invitation to meet with CHEW by video or phone call. If all looks like you are a good match for the dog, next comes the Meet & Greet.
3. Bring anyone who will live with the dog to the Meet & Greet, including any other dogs in the household. Typically, these meetings are held in a public park or pet store in Gig Harbor, WA.
4. CHEW’s adoption coordinator will conduct reference checks. CHEW will also conduct a home safety check.
5. If approved, you’ll meet again to sign the adoption paperwork, pay any fees, and take home your new furry friend!
Adoption Fees
Most of the dogs have been spayed or neutered (unless under the age of 6 months), vaccinated, checked for other health issues and microchipped. Adoption fee is $500.
