🌟 Meet Simba! This charming furry friend is a gentle soul with a heart just waiting to be filled with love! At first, he might come off as a little shy and reserved—classic chow chow behavior, right? But don’t you worry, because once he feels safe, he’ll warm up to you with all the affection imaginable! His striking reddish coat has a bit of a Labrador flair, making him not only adorable but also a standout in any crowd! 🍂 Now, let’s talk personality! While Simba isn’t the life of the party, he’s the kind of companion who relishes those cozy movie nights snuggled up with his family. 🎥💖 When he encountered a younger small dog, his whole demeanor changed—his body relaxed, and you guessed it, that tail started wagging like a happy little flag! He’s friendly towards other laid-back dogs and thrives in a calm environment. Simba comes with some impressive skills: he’s house-trained, crate-trained, and walks beautifully on a lead—talk about a perfect gentleman! 🕴️✨ He absolutely adores car rides and is treat-motivated, which means he’ll learn new tricks faster than you can say ‘good boy!’ Just a heads-up—he's a bit cautious when it comes to strangers, especially those approaching his fenced yard. But isn’t that just a good sign of his protective spirit? His dream home would have a secure fence and a medium activity level, perfect for long walks or lazy afternoons on the couch. 🛋️💕 It’s essential that adopters offer a history of excellent vet care for current or previous pets. While Simba is adorable, he hasn’t been kid-tested yet, so it would be best if he didn’t end up in a really active home without further assessment. If the chow breed, without all that fluff, captures your heart, Simba is your guy! He’s fully vetted, which means he’s been spayed/neutered, microchipped, and has all his vaccinations up to date. 🎉 His local adoption fee is $300 for adorers within the Memphis, TN tristate area. For those who want to adopt from out of state, the fee is $600 and includes transport to states like PA, CT, NJ, MD, and VA through a licensed USDA transport company. What a journey to a new family that will truly cherish him! If you’re ready to welcome this beautiful boy into your life, please apply through the Buddy App to adopt Simba and become the rock star of his world! 🌟✨
