About Checkers

Checkers is a delightful blend of Miniature Pinscher, American Bully, and other breeds. Currently, he’s a charming puppy full of energy and curiosity, always ready for a playful adventure. Weighing about 10 lbs now, he's predicted to grow to around 38 lbs. His short coat features a striking combination of white/cream and black, adding to his adorability. While he’s still working on being fully housebroken, Checkers is great with kids aged nine and older and behaves well around other small dogs.

He’s looking for a home with outdoor space where he can thrive and bond with his new owner. Checkers needs someone who can provide structure and routine as he grows.
