My story

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

Meet Happy: A Dog with a Heart of Gold

Happy’s name couldn’t be more fitting—he’s a bundle of joy wrapped in fur, radiating love to everyone he meets. Over a year ago, this sweet soul was abandoned in the front corral of CNHS, but Happy didn’t let that dim his spirit. He found his way to the adoption floor, charming staff, visitors, and other dogs alike, especially the puppies and small pups he adores.

Life threw Happy a curveball when he tore a cruciate ligament in his leg. His road to recovery was long and tough—nearly 10 months of healing, rest, and determination. Through it all, Happy never lost his signature smile or his enthusiasm for life. Today, you’ll often find him strolling alongside his favorite GIPD human, Officer Olson, soaking up the sunshine and spreading cheer.

Happy is more than ready to find a forever family who’ll love him as much as he’ll love them. This resilient, affectionate boy has been through so much, and now he’s dreaming of the day he can fill someone’s home with wagging tails, endless cuddles, and his unwavering happiness. Could you be the happy ending this remarkable dog deserves?
