Champ

Meet Champ! He is a total sweetheart who is ready to bring a lifetime of smiles to his forever family.<br/><br/>Champ came from a hoarding situation where he lived outdoors with more than 47 other dogs. Despite his difficult start, this boy has turned out to be an incredibly happy, loving dog who is ready to enjoy the good life.<br/><br/>Champ absolutely loves playing fetch, hanging out with other pups, and being right by your side. He's a wonderfully quiet guy who occasionally lets out the cutest little “yodel” when he wants to express his happiness! He's also a huge fan of mealtime, loves his food, and considers snoozing right next to his human the perfect way to spend an afternoon.<br/><br/>Champ does have a mild neurological quirk that gives him a bit of a “happy hour” swagger — sometimes he walks like he's had one too many juice boxes! You may also notice a tiny head shake when he's focusing, and his vision may not be 20/20, so he appreciates treats being held right by his nose. He navigates stairs just fine on his own, although his signature move is occasionally “sliding” down them like a champ!<br/><br/>None of these quirks cause him any pain, and his foster family says they barely notice them anymore. Champ has simply settled into being a normal, wonderful, goofy dog who happily blends into everyday life.<br/><br/>After everything Champ has been through, it's pretty special to see just how much joy he has to give. If you're looking for a resilient, yodeling, world-class cuddler who loves dogs, food, fetch, and his people, Champ is your guy!<br/><br/>They were rescued from a shelter in New Mexico.<br/><br/>Meet and greets are by appointment only.
