Story
Chloe is a 3 month old female Mountain Cur and Plott Hound Mix with a sweet and playful personality. She was found on the streets of Los Angeles and taken in by a kind person who, sadly, couldn’t keep her. Now she’s looking for a forever home where she can grow up loved and happy. Chloe loves squeaky toys, playing with other dogs, and snuggling up with kids. She’s also cat-friendly, making her a wonderful fit for just about any family ready to welcome a fun and affectionate puppy into their hearts. We hold an event every weekend at our facility on SATURDAY and SUNDAY 11-5pm and open to the public. It is first come first serve we do not evaluate applications prior to an event. If there are multiple interested parties in the same dog or puppy at the same time we would pick the best out of the 10 applications. Please visit our social media platforms for the specifics for each weekend as it changes from week to week. Please find our application at lovejoyfoundation.org when you come to an event please bring that filled out in hand with you. You can find our application at Lovejoyfoundation.org.
