***Please note, once completing the initial screen you will be connected with the placement for a video chat. Transports run every few weeks and we will have the dog on the next available transport once approved. If you are not able to accept a dog until a specific time period, please apply at that time*** We are a volunteer run rescue and donate our time to these dogs. IF you are not serious about moving forward in our adoption process, please do not apply. If someone other than yourself is part of the decision making process, please make sure you have spoken with them and they are on board. We really do not want to waste anyone's time if you are not serious about adopting this dog. Chester, 2 years old, neutered male, Staffordshire Terrier mix, 56 pounds. He is currently fostered in SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS and is able to transport once an adopter is approved. Please note our process starts with an application. If we think you might be a good fit, we will reach out to coordinate a phone interview. This is followed by a video call with the foster home. Virtual home visit, personal and vet reference checks are required to complete the process. Transport is included in our adoption donation. Chester is one happy, affectionate boy whose tail never stops wagging (seriously—it sometimes spins like a little propeller!). He’s an all-around good boy who loves dogs of all sizes and genders and plays beautifully with them. Whether it’s a good game of tug-of-war or just hanging out, Chester enjoys canine company and would love a dog friend in his new home—but he’d do just fine soaking up the love as a solo pup, too. He has met small kids and is really great with them. We want to note he does not currently live in a home with children. We have no history with cats. Chester is fully potty-trained and sleeps quietly through the night in his crate. He understands “kennel” and settles in without a fuss. He’s still learning a few house manners (like not helping himself to snacks on the counter when no one’s watching), but he’s a smart learner and already picking things up quickly. On leash, Chester likes to wander and zig-zag as he explores the world. He’ll pull occasionally—especially when he spots someone he wants to say hi to—but he’s not a harsh puller. He’s very people-friendly, though sometimes he’ll bark at strangers for reasons only he knows. A little continued leash work and social exposure will help him refine those manners. He's not had any reactions to other dogs on leash. This guy is affectionate and loves to be close. If you stop petting him, you might find him nudging your arm with his head asking for more! He knows “paw” and will politely offer it when you reach toward him. Chester has a moderate energy level—he’s playful in the mornings and evenings but relaxed during the day. He’d be happy in a home with regular walks and plenty of affection. He rides in the car but still finds it a bit exciting (or maybe confusing!) and tends to pace and whine, so some continued car training will help. His foster says Chester is one of the happiest dogs they’ve met: always cheerful, loving, and eager to please. He’s looking for a home that will keep working on his manners, provide companionship, and appreciate his big, silly, affectionate heart. If you’re looking for a sweet, friendly, goofy pup who will make you smile every day—Chester’s your guy! ***Listed BREED and AGE - We are taking our best guess & recommendations from our veterinarian on age, breed and size when fully grown.
