Meet adoptable dog Chaica!<\/p>\n

Chaica (A505318) is 8 years old, sweet, affectionate, gentle and, sadly, has spent far too much of her life in and out of the Orange County Animal Services<\/a> shelter. Chaica is the definition of sweetness. She\u2019s a little on the chubby side, so we do have her on a restricted diet. But honestly, she carries it well and it\u2019s just more of her to love.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Chaica absolutely adores people. She\u2019s also great with other dogs and even shares her kennel like a pro. While she can be a little reactive when she\u2019s behind a barrier, once she realizes she\u2019s getting to go out and explore, she lights up with joy. We\u2019ve seen this behavior in a lot of our dogs, and we know it\u2019s partly caused by the chaotic and stressful shelter environment. Chaica deserves a safe, loving home to finally call her own.<\/p>\n

Orange County Animal Services is located at 2769 Conroy Road in Orlando, near the Mall at Millenia. The shelter is open 10 a.m.-6 p.m. every day except Wednesday, when it\u2019s open 2-6 p.m. For more information, please call 407-836-3111 or visit ocnetpets.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n
