Carolina is a resilient, loving girl with a story of strength and survival. She was found on the streets while pregnant and brought in by animal control, where she quickly gave birth to a large litter. Terrified and overwhelmed, Carolina and her newborn puppies were placed on the euthanasia list—but they were rescued just in time.

In foster care, Carolina proved to be an incredible mama, raising her puppies until they were weaned and ready for homes of their own. Many of her babies have been adopted… now it’s finally her turn.

She’s dog-friendly, house-trained, and very well-behaved. She loves long walks, and will happily greet you with her adorable “happy dance” when it’s time to go outside. One of her favorite things? Giving hugs—when she’s excited, she’ll gently jump up just to be close to you.

Carolina has so much love to give and is ready for a forever home where she’ll be safe and cherished.

With a dense double coat that requires regular grooming and a history as ancient guardians and hunting companions, the Chow Chow remains a fascinating and enigmatic breed in the canine world.
