About Chong Coming Soon

Meet Chong, a charming Chihuahua around 5 to 6 years old. He transitioned to our care as an owner surrender due to an overcrowded home. Initially quite shy because he hadn’t interacted much with people, Chong has shown remarkable progress with the help of our dedicated volunteers. They have worked hard to socialize him, and he's embracing new experiences, like discovering toys and chasing them with joyful enthusiasm. Currently in a foster home, Chong has become comfortable with sleeping peacefully through the night in his crate and curling up next to his foster family on the couch. It's important to note that he has a strong sensitivity to cigarette smoke and becomes scared around smokers, so we’re looking for a strictly smoke-free environment for him. Chong is vaccinated, microchipped, and neutered, ready for his forever home soon. If you’re interested in meeting this sweet boy, please reach out to us. Get ready to form a special bond with him. Let’s make it official, apply to adopt!
