About Chad

Meet Chad! This sweet boy came to us as an 8-week-old puppy and was quickly adopted, but now, at 5 months old, he’s back with us and ready to find his forever home again. Chad is a delightful puppy with plenty of love to offer. He is crate trained, house trained, and leash trained, making him a great companion. Don’t let his age fool you; he’s full of potential. We want to be upfront about Chad's needs. His current family has noticed some food and resource guarding. Our trainer believes this behavior is manageable with consistency and continued training. Unfortunately, because there are children in his current home, they feel they can’t provide the guidance he needs. Chad is still learning, and he’s only 5 months old. We’re looking for a patient and committed family who understands that puppies require time and training. In return, you’ll have an affectionate companion with a fantastic foundation to build on. Chad deserves a home where forever truly means forever. If you think you can offer the right environment for him, please apply through our website. Share his story, too; his perfect match might be just around the corner!
