Before being adopted, CC could be seen “draped over” Chewbacca in their kennel, according to the Animal Rescue League of Iowa’s Facebook page.

There are two at the Dumb Friends’ League in Denver that were taken out of a hoarder situation. Pedro and Dominic...chi/pug mixes. They have been at the shelter for long time. I hope they go together. They look to be brothers, and they keep each other company and give ccomfort to one another.

The big dog looks like it might be a Newfiepoo which is a cross between a Newfoundland and a Poodle.

I hand’t heard of that dog. It’s interesting that it’s ‘hypoallergenic’ and sheds little. Apparently a good family dog.

The terrier is the dominant dog. You can bet on it.
