Chewbacca (Chewy)'s Story

Meet Chewbacca (aka Chewy or Chunk)! <br/><br/>Chewy’s life didn’t get off to the easiest start. At just 3 weeks old, he and eight other puppies were abandoned in a bin outside the Kern County shelter. They were much too young to fend for themselves, but thankfully, we were able to get Chewy and two of his siblings to safety with an amazing foster and bottle feeder who gave them the round-the-clock care they needed. The remaining puppies were also taken in by other rescue organizations, giving all nine babies a chance at the lives they deserved.<br/><br/>Now, Chewy is showing everyone exactly what a happy puppy he is! We think he and his siblings are rat, terrier mixes but we are waiting on the DNA results to be sure. We do know Chewy is equal parts spunky and snuggly. He loves playing with toys and wrestling around with his puppy siblings, and he especially loves spending time with his human siblings. But as much as he loves to play, he’s always ready for some cuddle time. We think he will be around 30 pounds full grown. <br/><br/>Chewy is usually the first one to escape when the corral gate opens, because obviously there are adventures to be had! But the second he hears his name, he’ll come running straight back to his foster and happily jump right into her arms. He’s playful, affectionate, confident, and already showing what a special little guy he is. Chewy is ready to find a family who will give him all the love, playtime, cuddles, and adventures he deserves!<br/><br/>As always, our puppy adoption fee covers first round of puppy vaccines, rabies, microchip, and spay/neuter.
