My story

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

Meet Chonkers (formerly known as Otto), a lovable male Pit Bull Terrier mix weighing around 66 pounds. Sadly, this is Chonkers` second time at the shelter. He first arrived as a stray in August 2024 and was quickly adopted into what he hoped would be his forever home. Unfortunately, he was returned in November due to health issues, specifically skin allergies, which will require some ongoing care to keep him comfortable and healthy.

Chonkers is a sweet and affectionate dog who yearns for a family that will accept him for who he is and love him unconditionally. He’s looking for someone who will provide the attention and care he needs to thrive. If you’re willing to offer Chonkers the love and support he deserves, he’ll be a loyal, grateful companion for life! Could you be the one to give him the forever home he’s been dreaming of?
