I am a long-term dog resident here at the Champaign County Humane Society!
What does that mean? It means I have been available for adoption for over 90 days and am more than ready to find my forever home! In fact, the shelter is waiving my adoption fee for any approved applicant. Please stop by the shelter during open hours to visit with me!
Ooh la la, Paris has arrived as CCHS! This gorgeous lady was an amazing mom to her sweet babies, but now that the nest is empty, she's ready for her turn to be babied! Paris loves people and treats, and going on long walks, but her favorite thing in the world is finding a lap to snuggle into. If you're ready for a whole lot of love, kisses, and the most loyal girl in the world, come to CCHS and meet Paris today!
Paris is a STAFF FAVORITE pet! Here's what adoption staff member, Avrohom has to say about her:
Paris is the absolute sweetest dog you will ever meet! I am always so happy to take her out and see her, she gives so much love. She is a shy girl to new people, but when she gets to know you there is nobody like her. Paris has been here long enough to have her adoption fee waived and we all just know she will be perfect for a home. She does not have a mean bone in her body, just a little uncertainty. When you see her affection like I have there is no chance you will not want to take her home, so come in and visit with her!
