About Chess
Chess is one of the lively "Fun & Games gamers" from a group of tiny terriers born in rescue last July. This sweet and sassy girl adores the company of other dogs, cats, birds, and children. At just 8 weeks old, she weighs between 4-6 lbs and is busy working on her house training while enjoying mealtime manners. She's already familiar with the "Leave It" command, a great start for her training journey. Being in the teething stage, Chess has sharp tiny teeth and loves her chew toys. Bedtime is a charm for her; she cozies up for a snuggle before racing to her crate for a peaceful night’s sleep. Chess will make a fantastic companion for families of all types. However, since she's a bit mouthy at this age, adult supervision around young children is essential. High energy and playful, she’ll thrive with proper training. Make sure your family includes everyone when you come to meet this playful pup! Your journey with Chess could start soon. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
