Say hello to Chrome

Chrome is ready to find her home as a non-ridden companion.

Striking blue eyes, a muzzle as white as snow and a sweet, loving temperament; Chrome is looking to find a perfect partner who can provide her with a solid routine, filled with love and affection where she can truly thrive. Gentle for the most part, in times of worry Chrome can use her strength against you to attempt to flee the source of worry however this is never in malice and these times are very few and far between. Due to this however, we are seeking an experienced handler who will help Chrome through these times of worry and not hold it against her.

Chrome forms strong bonds with her field mates and can become very stressed when they are taken away so she would benefit from a home where she will not be left alone.
