About Chang

Meet Chang, a charming little guy with a heart full of love. After losing his lifelong owner, he’s searching for a new companion to share his life with. Chang is a handsome 8-year-old Chinese Crested Dog, often compared to a little fox thanks to his striking red and chestnut coat. He thrives on human affection and truly enjoys being close to his person. While he prefers to be the only dog to soak up all the attention, he wouldn't mind sharing his home with another small, gentle dog who understands his need for love. Unfortunately, his brief stay with relatives didn't go well due to their three Jack Russells being unkind. So, he has come to the rescue to find a more suitable environment. Chang is a devoted Velcro dog, making it essential for him to be in a home where someone is around most of the time. Already housetrained, he weighs about 12 lbs and is looking forward to bringing joy back into his life. Let’s find him a warm, loving home! Ready to give Chang the love he deserves?
