History: Churro is a super sweet boy who arrived to rescue in desperate need of a second chance. He is such a handsome and striking boy who is ready to meet his forever home soon!
A Note from the Foster: Churro is just what his name implies — a sweet treat of a pup. If you’re looking for someone to snuggle, he’s your dude!!
Churro is doing great with his foster family. He adores his foster brother and sister (both English Bulldogs) and he gives them space when they ask for it. He is discovering play and is oh so curious and cute when he chews on a toy. Sometimes he’ll even paw at his foster brother to initiate play. Churro also loves looking at the TV and lying in a heated blankie (he thinks it’s much too cold out right now). And his head tilts are just adorable as ever!
A few things to note with Churro — he is blind in one eye and partially blind in the other. But that doesn’t seem to hinder him at all. He’s smart and quite active. He rubs up against things to feel out where he is. Long flights of stairs, however, will need to be gated.
In terms of potty training, he is learning and seems to learn best by following the lead of his foster brother. However, it likely wouldn’t take long for him to catch on without another dog.
Churro will be getting neutered and have his teeth removed in January. A soft diet will likely be necessary.
Churro really has an A+ personality and is the goofiest, sweetest, most deserving pup ever. He is SO excited to find a loving forever home where he can snuggle, play and find joy in his later years!!
Adoption Fee: $560 + tax
Adoption Status: Is this dog available? Submitting an application is the best first step to learning if a dog is still available. There is a chance this dog could have a pending adoption when your application is submitted, however our team will offer approved applicants to be put on a waiting list for that dog. Additionally, we can make recommendations on other dogs that may be a match. Pending adoptions do not mean the adoption is finalized. Why did we implement this change? We implemented this update because, unfortunately, dogs were pending for applicants for several weeks and then the applicant would change their mind. This happens more often with puppies, as applications are submitted impulsivly more often for them. Our process is great because it takes a little time, so impulsive decisions fade. However it was unfortunate for the dogs, and the foster homes, as then the process needed to be re-started. By securing a wait-list we are able to move forward more quickly if a pending adoption falls through. This is a new process for us, so your feedback along the way is helpful! Thank you for supporting rescue and adoption!
