About Chano

Chano dodged the odds in San Antonio and landed in rescue when he could have easily been another statistic. Since October 2025, he’s been waiting patiently for a place to call his own. Chano's a handsome 3-year-old, mixed-breed hound/boxer with a short, soft white and golden coat. At about 58 lbs, he’s the perfect medium-large size for active households. He’s up to date on vaccines, neutered, house trained, and loves playtime as much as he craves simple affection—a pat, a scratch, or just a quiet moment with someone. Chano gets along well with other dogs. While it's not clear how he does with cats, there’s no indication he wouldn’t fit in with older kids. The main thing he wants is connection and a chance to show how much love he’s got to share. He’s been stuck in boarding, so a foster home—even short term—could change everything for him.
