About Chrome

Meet Chrome, a sweet Labrador Retriever ready for her next big adventure in Rutherfordton, NC. Chrome came to Camp Patriot as a scared owner surrender, unsure of how to trust people or walk on a leash. She has made tremendous strides, becoming affectionate and friendly once she feels safe. Chrome is a true snuggler; she even captured the heart of a vet during a visit, who couldn’t help but want to take her home. While she’s comfortable with everyone, men and women alike, Chrome thrives in a calm environment where she can gain confidence at her own pace. She's friendly with other dogs and would likely relish having a canine companion. However, she hasn’t been tested with cats or children yet, so potential adopters should be aware of that. Chrome's ideal home is one with experienced and patient owners who understand nervous or shy dogs. If you have the time and love to help her blossom, she might just be the perfect addition to your family. Interested in giving Chrome the home she deserves?
