Champ is in foster care this is what hfoster Mom has to say about him. Are you looking for a low energy and housebroken companion? Champ might be for you. Champ might be 12 but he still has much to give! He`s is playful and great with all people. His hearing is not great so I wouldn`t expect him to be a good guard dog since he rarely hears someone come into the house. He loves to have a good view of the outside world or a nice warm spot in the sun. Some of his favorite things include ripping open his Bark Box or chasing around a balloon, which he carries gently and will protect once he catches it. He doesn`t seem to care about the birds, squirrels, or bunnies in the yard, although he did surprise himself by catching the groundhog once and then he just let it go so it could run away. He likes the neighbor dogs that live on the side of the chain link fences. He uses a doggy door to let himself in and out as he pleases. He farts loud and often. Even though he is usually a perfect angel, there are some very important things to keep in mind: Champ has severe skin allergies that need constant upkeep. He`s been getting `microbubble baths` from the groomers once a week for the past 3 weeks and there has already been a huge improvement. Part of his skin issues are likely food-related so he needs to be on a strict, fish-based, limited ingredient food now. He will only sneak on the furniture when you`re home or in the room and he might throw all of the pillows in order to improve his comfort. He not into cuddling but he does expect a good body scratch in the morning. If you`re interested in meeting Champ please email foster@homewardboundnj.org

More about this shelter
Founded by the Camden County Board of Chosen Freeholders in 1997, the Camden County Animal Shelter (CCAS) has been fighting to reduce the overwhelming stray/unwanted animal population in its county. CCAS is an open admissions shelter and takes in over 6,000 companion animals from 17 municipalities in Camden County every year. In 2004, the Animal Welfare Society of Camden County, which currently runs the Camden County Animal Shelter, took over the shelter's activities. CCAS now does three major things: provide shelter for stray/unwanted animals, find those animals loving homes, and provide low-cost spay/neuter services.
CCAS is an open admissions shelter. Its 40+ full and part-time staff work hard to find loving homes for each and every animal that enters the shelter's doors. The 2011 Animal Intake and Disposition Survey shows that Camden County performs much better than its surrounding counties.
In addition to taking in animals, CCAS holds a multitude of events every year in order to help those looking to adopt to find the animal of their dreams, be it an adoption event or a full-blown gala. Lastly, CCAS provides Camden County with low-cost spay and neutering options. By providing the service at such a cheap cost, CCAS hopes to reduce the number of stray/unwanted animals in the county.
