About Chauncey
Chauncey has been through a lot, but he’s still looking for the right home with people who understand his quirks. After being found with his muzzle tied and later abandoned, he’s understandably wary around strangers and nervous during car rides. At home, Chauncey is glued to his person’s side and always ready for play or a round of tug with his foster sister. He’s housetrained, neutered, and current on his vaccines. Chauncey’s a big guy who needs supervision around cats and smaller pets, since his play drive can be a little much—no kitty siblings or small dogs for this boy. He’s been good with medium to large dogs and would do well with dog-savvy playmates. Kids in the home need to be at least 12 and up, just because he’s a clumsy giant and doesn’t know his own strength. He’s got a lot to say and isn’t shy about sharing opinions, especially when dinner runs late. He does fine when left alone in his own room, especially if you give him something tough to chew. Chauncey needs adopters who will go slow with introductions, give him lots of reassurance, and stick to a steady routine. A fenced yard and a commitment to ongoing training are a must for him.
