We are needing to rehome our beloved dog Chia. Both our kids are moving away for college and we won't be able to continue to give her the attention she needs to continue to thrive. Chia is playful, loves to connect and is great with people of all ages, as well as other dogs. Her mother is an Australian Shepherd and father is a mix of black lab, Pitbull, and Akita. We would love for her to be adopted by folks/family that have land for her to run/ a farm. She currently lives with us on our 5 acre farm in Candler, NC. If interested please email : elisamadre72@gmail.com or text 530-388-6171.
