About Chop
Introducing Chop, a delightful one-year-old greyhound mix looking for a loving family to assist him on his journey to becoming a well-rounded canine companion. Chop is a wonderful pup with a friendly personality that truly shines when he becomes comfortable with his handlers. Despite his past of limited handling, Chop has shown incredible potential, and he's eager to learn the basics of being a dog with the guidance of a patient and dedicated owner.
Chop is energetic and absolutely adores the company of other dogs. While he may be under-socialized, his friendly nature makes him open to new experiences, and it's evident that with a bit of guidance, he will blossom in any dog-loving household. With time and patience, Chop will gain the confidence needed to interact positively with new furry friends.
Besides his social aspirations, Chop is deeply connected to the humans in his life. He thrives on affection and is always ready for a pat, scratch, or a cuddle. He's a devoted learner with lots of love to give, making him the perfect companion for a family that cherishes spending time together and embracing life's adventures. If you're ready to invest a little time and love, Chop will reward you with endless joy and companionship.

Adoption details
We are not open to walk ins, appointments by booking only. All households members must be present before we can adopt an animal out.
As our goal is to adopt animals out from the shelter into loving homes as fast as possible, multiple bookings may be made for the same animal.
We are not able to hold any animals for any reason.
As such, there is a possibility that the animal you may have found a forever home before your appointment. If this is the case we will inform you by phone call as soon as possible.
