PROFILE
My name is Chanel, and I know I am adorable--just look at my sweet face! I am very lovable, loyal, and enjoy the company of humans and male dogs. I would like a fenced yard; but it is not a requirement in my forever home.

My foster mom has been training me on basic commands. I am crate-trained and enjoy bones and chews to occupy my time. I don't have accidents in the house and know better not to jump on furniture! Sometimes when I get really excited, I jump when greeting people and when I'm getting fed so I can be in a home with older children, but not young ones.

I spend most of my days napping, dreaming of food, playing, and trying to avoid taking a bath. My favorite food is spaghetti and meatballs. Don't get me wrong, I also eat up all my veggies!

Wouldn't you like to take me home?


PHYSICAL
I have a gorgeous black coat with a white stripe down my face, spilling onto my chin, around my neck, on my chest, and onto my toes.


HEALTH
Chanel is up-to-date on vaccinations, microchipped, and spayed. She had a ligament replaced on her right leg in January 2021 and has fully recuperated. Initially, the vet suggested the same operation on her left leg, but given her age and the lengthy, uncomfortable recovery process, we are not recommending surgical intervention.

IAR subsidizes post-adoption professional training with Eliana Cellucci at Project Paws (https://projectpawsdogtraining.com/) to encourage a life-long and successful bond between the dog and the adopter. Group classes for puppies and adult dogs as well as private training sessions are provided at a substantial discount to IAR adopters.
