Chief is every bit the loyal companion you hope for in a dog—steady on the leash, relaxed at home, and ready to tag along for any adventure. He’s a white boxer/pittie mix, six years old, with big brown spots and that classic, expressive bully face. Walking with Chief feels easy; he’s got his leash manners down and genuinely enjoys neighborhood strolls without tugging you every which way. He’s not overflowing with energy, but he lives for daily walks, car rides, and being involved with his person. Chief is crate and potty trained, sleeps through the night, and already knows a handful of commands ("sit,” “crate,” and “let’s go"). He responds well to training, especially when treats or praise are involved. Treat puzzles, stuffed Kongs, and fetch are his go-to activities. He gets along with mellow, respectful dogs but not with cats. Thanks to his size (about 50 lbs) and a few silly moments, Chief does best in homes with adults or teenagers. While busy, energetic environments can be a little much for him, he’s adapting well and growing in confidence every day. This dog is a true “hidden gem”—easy to live with and devoted to his people. Chief is currently being fostered in North Carolina and can be transported to anywhere along the East Coast. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
