About Chester
Chester is an 11-month-old Whoodle (a mix of Wheaten Terrier and Poodle) weighing between 30 and 35 lbs. He came into rescue alongside his brother, Corkie, who has since found a home. Initially, Chester had limited social interactions and, while he’s become more comfortable in his foster home, he still experiences fear when meeting new people. He requires slow introductions and a patient approach from potential adopters. Chester thrives in the company of a friendly, gentle resident dog who can guide him and help build his confidence. He is looking for a calm environment with older teens or adults. A structured routine in a quiet setting is essential for his development. While Chester is sweet and observant, he is still fearful of leash training and is not ready for walks at this time. Instead, a secure, fully fenced yard is necessary, as he tends to bolt when frightened. It's crucial to handle transitions carefully, including doors and gates. Due to his background, crate training isn't suitable for him; he does better in a safe room with a pet gate when left unattended. Chester is neutered, microchipped, and current on vaccinations. If you believe you can provide the understanding and environment he needs, consider applying to give him a forever home. Click apply to start the adoption process.
