Chester

My story

This high-spirited fellow is Chester, a Staffordshire Bull Terrier that weighs 57 lbs and is 2 yrs of age. He arrived at the Mesquite Animal Shelter on 4/17. This bright-eyed, tail-wagging boy has unbounded enthusiasm and energy--you might say a real zest for living. Although Chester has not been there nearly as long as many of our dogs, he has decided that shelter life is not for him! He has made his list of what would be his idea of a perfect home (not necessarily in order of importance)—1) He wants to live an inside life (well, ok that IS first on his list. 2) He wants plenty of interaction, playtime, and exercise. 3) He wants a couple of strategically placed soft doggy beds around the house. 4) He wants nutritious and yummy dog food and is especially fond of Pupperoni treats. 5) He wants plenty of TLC and a promise to stay committed to him. In exchange, he swears he will be a good boy, will work hard to learn learn and obey the house rules and is even willing to take obedience classes and he promises to be the best doggie friend you’ve ever had! He is friendly, likes being loved on and petted and walks well on a leash, though in his enthusiasm does pull on the leash. He has the habit of jumping on you a lot which would need to be addressed first off. Because of this jumping, he would not be a good fit for a home with very young kids until this habit has been corrected. Will you please consider assisting Chester out of the shelter?
