Meet Champ

Champ is a handsome one-year-old, 48 lb. Basenji mix with gentle brown eyes, a soft coat, and an irresistible smile. Abandoned by his previous family in June while they moved, Champ spent an hour at the shelter door, crying for their return. The pain of that abandonment hit him hard, leaving him terrified and struggling. As he grappled with depression and kennel reactivity, we knew we had to save him and give Champ a fresh start. That’s when he took a life-changing freedom flight from North Carolina to Connecticut, ready to find his true furever family.

Though Champ has faced hardships, his spirit shines brightly. With time, patience, and love, he has transformed into a lovable cuddle buddy who adores making friends, both two and four-legged. He previously lived with children as well so he’s an ideal family dog! Champ’s playful personality and charming demeanor make him a social butterfly, always eager to join in on the fun. He absolutely loves toys and is learning to fetch, often inviting you to play by dropping a toy in your lap.

As a young pup who never had the benefit of structure or training, Champ is looking for a patient and understanding owner willing to help him learn the basics. He’s very smart, food motivated, and is working hard on housetraining and leash manners. Champ thrives in the company of other dogs so he must go to a home with a furry sibling and a fenced yard where he can run off his energy.

If you’re ready to give Champ the love and guidance he deserves, you’ll gain a loyal companion who will fill your life with joy and adventure. His adoption fee is $400 and Champ is vaccinated, microchipped, heartworm negative, and neutered.
