About Chico
Chico started out abandoned in a crate on the roadside, but he’s bounced back with a huge, forgiving heart. This big, handsome boy finds joy in the basics: chew toys, treats, and the occasional pup cup top his list. Leave him unsupervised with a squeaker, and it won’t last long. Chico’s the perfect companion for road trips—he loves car rides and would happily be your shotgun buddy any day. At 82 lbs, Chico is a gentle giant who prefers a cozy, open space to a crate, and he’ll be happiest stretching out in your home rather than hearing the buzz of vacuums and lawn equipment. He’s gentle with both men and women, and he’s especially sweet with children, whether toddlers or older kids. Chico gets along well with dogs big and small, and his easygoing nature makes him a natural fit for families. His cherry eye was fixed recently and he’s looking better than ever. If you want a laid-back, affectionate dog who’s ready to lounge around or snuggle up at the end of the day, Chico's waiting for you. Fun fact: as an Aquarius, Chico’s known for his open mind, friendliness, and easy spirit. Start your journey together! Apply now.
