Lorna Chow Chow Mix Fredericksburg, VA

Approximate Age: 2 years old
Approximate Weight: 42lbs

It’s me- Lorna. I am a very affectionate, fluffy fluffy lady looking for a place to call my own. I need a proper meet with strangers, but once I know you I love to be the center of your attention. One of my favorite things is to be brushed! I get along with other dogs, but am definitely the alpha. Once i get to know the other dog and open up- I JUST WANT TO PLAYYYYY!!! . I do okay in a crate. I am super smart! I know my commands, I love car rides, walk great on a leash, and have great house manners!!

Lorna has spent some time at our adoption center to really help her meet as many new people as possible- it’s worked wonders and she has truly become many of our volunteers FAVORITE!! She loves so many of us and has become just the sweetest little bear! The main thing she struggles with is being possessive over her food and toys aka resource guarding. She does get better as she knows you but a general rule of thumb we just crate her when feeding. :)

You can still come adopt me or even join our foster program to help the humans learn all the awesome things about new dogs like me! Learn more on our website!

Hope to see you soon!

What breed am I? Mixed mutt! ODHS does not breed label (unless there’s official paperwork), as studies show it is nearly impossible to tell the exact breed of each dog based off of their appearance.
