Stockton - Labrador Retriever and Chow Chow Dog for Adoption in Kansas City, Kansas

STOCKTON IS IN A FOSTER HOME. If you are interested in meeting him please call 913-321-1445 or email petadoptions@kckpd.org to schedule your appointment.

Stockton is a very cute mixed breed puppy! He is a little on the chunky side with short arms/legs. He's a pretty independent little guy who enjoys other dogs. He likes to run and play with the big dogs in his foster home. He likes playing outside when the weather is nice but he does not like the heat.

Stockton sleeps in bed in his foster home. As long as you take him out before he goes to bed and take his water away, he will sleep through the night. When he wakes up he has to go potty immediately and then wants to eat.

Stockton is not really a fan of being held... he's a busy guy and has things to do!

Stockton would really like a home with another dog. Not a bossy dog. Kids are okay as long as they are older and know how to handle puppies.

Stockton is 12 weeks old.

The Chow Chow, a distinctive breed known for its lion like mane and unique blue black tongue, originated in China over 2,000 years ago. These aloof yet loyal dogs are known for their independent nature, dignified demeanor, and protective instincts. Chow Chows require early socialization and training to thrive in a family setting, as they can be stubborn and territorial. 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.

The Labrador Retriever is a popular and versatile dog breed known for its friendly demeanor and high intelligence. These dogs are often used as guide dogs for the visually impaired, search and rescue dogs, and excellent family pets. Labradors are known for their great sense of smell, strong build, and love of water, making them exceptional hunters and swimmers. With their loyal and loving nature, Labradors have rightfully earned their reputation as one of the most beloved dog breeds in the world.
