My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Arugula is looking for a home!
This handsome pooch originally came to the shelter as a stray. We estimate he is about 3-4 years old and he is neutered and up to date on vaccines. He weighs approximately 50lbs and would be best in a home without cats.
He has recently gone into a foster home, and this is what his foster has to say about him:
"Arugula is a delightful companion who is eagerly seeking a forever home filled with love and affection.
One of Arugula's cutest qualities is his love for giving hugs. His warm and affectionate nature is sure to bring joy to anyone who crosses his path. With his cute ears flopping when he walks and his black coat with black brindle socks, Arugula is undeniably adorable.
In addition to his lovable personality, Arugula is a low-maintenance dog who is easy to care for. He is crate trained, potty trained, great in the car, and quiet. With his calm demeanor and manageable size, he is the perfect companion for any environment, whether on the road or at home.
Arugula also has a playful side that is sure to keep you entertained. When given a toy, he will joyfully trot around, showing off his exuberant personality. He loves to roll on his belly and rub his back on the grass, showcasing his silly antics and playful spirit.
If you are looking for a loyal and affectionate furry friend, Arugula is the perfect choice for you. Consider giving Arugula a forever home and experience the joy of having this lovable dog by your side."
If you think you might like to meet Arugula, please submit an adoption survey at chicoanimalshelter.org and then a staff member will reach out!

More about this shelter

The Chico Animal Shelter is owned by the City of Chico and operated by the City of Chico Police Department. We take in all stray dogs found in the incorporated area of the City of Chico. People wishing to surrender their dogs are asked to call the shelter to make an appointment. The shelter does not impound healthy stray cats, including feral or trapped cats. Please see our website for more information about stray cats, and where to surrender owned cats. Although we are an open admission shelter, we follow the state policy that no adoptable animal should be euthanized. To that end, we work with rescue groups, humane societies and other organizations to adopt out animals.
