All Chubbs wants is a family.

For more than three years, the hound mix has lived in an animal shelter, waiting for an adopter to choose him.

In March 2016, when Chubbs was just 1 year old, he ended up at Austin Pets Alive! (APA) in Texas. 

“Chubbs has been at APA longer than any other dog,” Rona Distenfeld, one of Chubbs’ trainers, told The Dodo. 

Chubbs is now 4 years old and has spent most of his young adult life in a kennel.
