Get Fjord Home

Fjord loves walks, peanut butter, and plushies.  He's looking for a cozy place to relax, where his warm, affectionate personality is adored. Fjord could be the perfect addition to your home.

Fjord is a mature dog with a gentle spirit. At eight years he's a little older, but that just means he brings the kind of calm companionship and quiet loyalty that only comes with age. He's also a very tidy boy, keeping his kennel is order as he waits for his family.

Consider Fostering

Fostering a pet can be a crucial part of their journey to adoption. Can you open your home to a pet, temporarily? Not only will you be directly ensuring animals have a safe place to grow and heal, but it will also give CCHS the opportunity to house even more pets here at the shelter.

Learn More and Enroll

You might be asked to care for:
🐾 Newborns, too young to safely be at the shelter
🐾 Pets awaiting or recovering from a medical event
🐾 An animal that needs more time or space to thrive

CCHS provides the pet supplies, medical care, food, and more to help you care for your foster pet. Please consider applying if you can open your home to a pet in temporary need.
