FOSTER OR FOREVER HOME NEEDED Meet Chauncey! Chauncey is a 1-year-old, 12 lb Terrier mix who came to us as a stray from an overcrowded shelter. This sweet little guy is looking for a patient, understanding home where he can continue building confidence and learning that the world is a safe place. Chauncey is incredibly loving and loyal once he bonds with his people, but he can be shy, skittish, and reserved when first meeting new people or experiencing new situations. He takes a little time to warm up, but once he trusts you, he’s happiest curled up in your lap. He’s still gaining confidence with things like leash walking and navigating the outside world, so he’ll need adopters who have experience with shy dogs and understand the importance of patience, routine, and gentle encouragement. Chauncey would do best in a calm, quiet home environment outside of busy city areas where he can feel safe and settle in at his own pace. Because of his sensitive nature, we are looking for an adult-only home with no children. He does well with other dogs and would likely thrive with a calm, confident canine companion in the home to help show him the ropes and continue building his confidence. If you’re looking for a sweet, sensitive little dog to bond deeply with, Chauncey might just be your perfect match! Chauncey is UTD on vaccinations, microchipped, and neutered. His adoption fee is $500.
