My story

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

Who's gray and white and ready to snuggle with her people all day? I'll give you a hint ... it's me! My name is Chloe, and I'm looking for a furever home that has a lifetime supply of belly rubs, sunny patches for naps, and fancy dog treats.

Aside from being adorable, I am also deaf, so I'm most comfortable when people approach me from the front so I can see them coming. Like anyone else, I'm not a big fan of having anybody sneak up behind me! I LOVE to be with people and will happily spend the day by your side (especially if you're good at giving belly rubs). I don't mind other dogs, but I would also be fine as an only pup getting your love all to myself.

I will need eye ointment twice a day, but I really enjoy having it applied! I do well on a leash for walks, but prefer not to be in a crate -- I'll wait for you to come home from any outing by napping on the couch instead. Toys aren't really my thing, but I will NEVER say no to a good treat! So, if you find yourself with extra love to give, you should come and take me home. I'll take all the love you've got!

If you'd like to take me home, please fill out an adoption application at this website - https://animalalliesrescue.org/dog-application - and choose me, Chloe! My adoption fee is $150 and AARF wants me to tell you that their adoption package covers all expenses needed to prepare dogs like me for our forever homes. By the time you meet us, we've already been spayed/neutered (if age-appropriate) and microchipped. We've been checked by a veterinarian, and we're up to date on age-appropriate immunizations against rabies and DHLPP (distemper, hepatitis, leptospirosis, parainfluenza, and parvovirus). We've been tested for heartworm and other tick borne diseases (4DX), and we've started our heartworm and flea preventive medications. Some of us have had extensive surgeries, dental work, or other necessary procedures. AARF is committed to getting all of us entirely ready for a happy, healthy, love-filled life!

Additional adoption info

Thank you for your interest in adopting a pet from Animal Allies Rescue Foundation (AARF). At the heart of our work is ensuring that each AARFie is matched with a family that is going to be their forever family. The application process is the first step in helping us understand you, your home, and factors that may help us determine if this pet is a great match for you — or, help you find a fit that will be. Please complete all the information in our species specific adoption applications; missing information may delay the adoption screening process.

Please note:

AARF only adopts pets to people in the Baltimore/DC metro region. In certain circumstances, we will consider homes in closer areas Pennsylvania, Delaware and Northern Virginia. This is due to the required home visit and long term ability to support the adoption. If you live outside of an hour radius of Baltimore, it is unlikely that your application will be approved.

Completion of the application form does not guarantee AARF will place one of our pets in your care. Many of our animals receive multiple applications, and we evaluate each applicant on fit for the specific animal (not first come first serve).

Completion of the application authorizes AARF to verify any information contained herein, including verification of medical records of any present or prior pets treated by the veterinarians listed.

AARF utilizes Truthfinder, a leading provider of public data about people and their connections to others, to verify certain information provided on foster and adoption applications. Truthfinder does not provide consumer reports and is not a consumer reporting agency as defined by the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA).

Completion of the adoption application is an indication that the information contained within this application is accurate and not misleading in any way.

All adoptions are at the sole discretion of AARF.

We also remind you that animals are not a short-term commitment, and as such, please give careful consideration to adopting an animal. Make sure your lifestyle allows the time, patience and expenses this animal will need over the years.
