Waukesha Dog With Underbite Gets Noticed On Social Media

WAUKESHA, WI—A cute Labrador mix in Waukesha is causing a round of a-paws on social media. Humane Animal Welfare Society - HAWS of Waukesha posted on its website on Oct. 1 a photo of Chompers who is available to adopt.

"She’s super affectionate and only a little self-conscious of her underbite," Haws wrote on Facebook.

On Tuesday, social media users were posting pictures of their dogs with underbites and messages of interest in adopting the pretty canine.

Some of the remarks on Twitter included:

"She really chomped up my hearts."

"Eyebrows on fleek Chompers!

"It's the bottom row teef for me."

"I'd say her tiny toofers are quite endearing."

"There's no substi-tooth for Chompers!"

Johanna Schmanski, of Waukesha Haws, was surprised and delighted to hear of the social media chatter of Chompers.

"That is fantastic and great exposure for our dogs who deserve it," Schmanski told Patch.

According to the dog's bio, "I have a bit of an underbite, and sometimes my bottom teeth stick out. So, that might be why I got such a silly name."

Schmanski said Chompers loves people and needs to be around children over 12. Chompers needs to be a home with no cats but would need to meet other dogs first.
