We invite you to take a moment and get to know Chunk. This hunk o' love shows his love complete with drool! Chunk is approximately 4-5 years old and comes with all of his 'bits' attached. But, no worries, we provide you with a spay/neuter certificate to help offset the cost of having those pesky danglies removed! Chunk hasn't been tested with cats or kids, but he has shown he is a friendly gent with our staff and the vet he got to meet for his vaccinations. He knows some basic commands such as 'sit' and 'paw' which he was kind enough to demonstrate without even being asked. (We thought that was pretty cool!) Chunk is a pretty laid-back guy who enjoys naps, but he tends to prefer the floor over his bed. Maybe in time, when he realizes that beds are comfy he will use them, but we aren't forcing him to rush into a decision on that as of yet. He loves pig-ears and chews. He enjoys treats of all kinds and accepts them gently from your hands. We haven't had a lot of time to fully get to know him yet, but so far, we are enjoying our time with him. We think that you will as well if you meet him. He does have a large growth hanging from his back leg, but the vet assures us that a surgery for its removal would be pretty simple. He has such gentle eyes that show a soul looking to be loved. Are you looking for someone to love you as well? Maybe a movie partner? Chunk would love to share late-night movie marathons with you. However, we do suggest that you make him his own bowl of popcorn for movie nights for drool reasons. Chunk  is waiting to meet all potential adopters at Van Buren County Animal Control Shelter at 58040 County Road 681 in Hartford. Our phone number is 269-621-4624.     Also, don't miss: Saturday, October 17th, 2026 - 9am to 4pm:  Free Vaccine Clinic by Van Buren County Animal Control Shelter! MUST be a resident of Van Buren County.  Free for all Van Buren County residents regardless of income.  The free vaccinations are provided by our sponsors PetCo Love, BISSELL Pet Foundation, and the Dave and Cherly Duffield Foundation.  Van Buren County Animal Control Shelter is located at 58040 County Road 681, Hartford, MI 49057  For further details, follow us on our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/Vanburencountyac See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
