My story

**This is a courtesy listing for Frosted Faces, Vintage Paws Animal Rescue** Say hello to Chico! Chico is a senior gentleman, looking for a forever family to love him just the way he is, but also help him along his weight-loss journey. Chico came to the rescue with another dog, when their former family was no longer able to care for them due to health issues. The family was going to have Chico and his pal, Maggie, euthanized because they had nowhere for the dogs to go. Chico came to the shelter very overweight, at almost 33 pounds. We are proud to say that Chico has already lost almost four pounds during his time at rescue! Chico is approximately ten-years-old and is an easy-going fella. He enjoys a short walk around the block, a sniff in the sunshine, and a snooze on a soft bed. Chico is friendly with people and will gently approach you for pets, tail wagging. He is tolerant of other dogs and wouldn't mind another chill buddy in his forever family. Chico gets annoyed with the younger dogs at rescue, when they're all up in his business (who can blame him?!), but he does enjoy going on a walk or trotting around the yard with another chill buddy. Bring your dog from home in to say hello to Chico! If you have a heart for senior dog and are looking to help a special dog in need, please come meet our Chico! Chico is up to date on his vaccinations and previously neutered. Email chitownrescue@gmail.com for more information/meet and greet appointment.April 30, 2025, 4:38 am

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Chico, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
