Champ - Corgi and Australian Shepherd Dog for Adoption in Millcreek, Utah

Meet Champ! Champ is a 5-year-old Corgi/Aussie mix weighing about 30 pounds, and he's the kind of dog who makes himself part of the family in no time!

When Champ first arrived, we gave him a chance to decompress in the back of our SUV with a cozy snuggle bed and a few new toys. He quietly looked out the window for about 10 minutes--and then, as if he'd decided we were his people, he hopped over the seat to introduce himself to our kids. His ability to warm up so quickly speaks volumes about his resilient, loving personality.

Despite his difficult past, Champ is incredibly sweet, gentle, and personable. He loves being included in whatever the household is doing, whether that's hanging out nearby, making new friends, accepting gentle pets, or heading out on a fun sniff adventure. He's happiest when he's simply part of the action.

Champ is wonderful with kids and has excellent crate manners, happily resting and sleeping in his crate when it's time to settle down. If you're looking for a loyal companion with a heart of gold, Champ is ready to bring love, joy, and plenty of tail wags to his forever home.
