200 days. This sweet guy sat in the shelter for 200 days, waiting for a home. The shelter saw what a good dog Chester was and gave him multiple extensions. He remained sweet, calm, and resilient through his shelter time. The shelter was right, Chester is the sweetest boy. He is loyal, calm, kind, and always down for a belly rub. Good luck petting him and not having him roll over for a good belly scratch! Chester was heartworm positive and underwent heartworm treatment in mid May. Once again, Chester won the vet over during his treatment and they immediately loved him! He rolled over for their belly scratches and did what Chester does best-love on people. Chester is a 75 pound boxer mix. He is approximately 1.5 years old. He is not cat friendly but great with other dogs. He is friendly to guests that come to his foster’s house and does not bark much. He is crate trained and potty trained. Chester knows sit and stay. Some would say he knows roll over, but that is just to get a belly scratch and not on command! Chester is friendly to children. He is not food aggressive and you can touch his bowl while eating. Chester loves a tennis ball and can play by himself with a tennis ball for 30 minutes easily. He has devised a system where he presses on the ball with his foot to make it pop up so he can chase it. And he does this on repeat! Chester loves a walk, but does believe he will melt in the rain. He loves to follow his foster around the house and is very curious about they are doing. If you are looking for a dog that will love with you his whole heart and be a companion, Chester is for you! As of early May, Chester is currently undergoing heartworm treatment and is handling treatment well. He will need to continue to refrain from heavy exercise in the next couple of weeks - which he doesn’t seem to mind based on his relaxed demeanor! --- To apply to adopt, please follow the steps for adoption on HalfwayThereRescue.com/Adoption-Process and apply directly here: https://fs26.formsite.com/htrnp/a2k3lsooud/index.html
