Chester

My story

Chester is a 7-year-old Cocker Spaniel with a gentle soul and a heart full of love to give. With his soft, soulful eyes and sweet nature, he’s every bit as lovable as he looks. Chester came to us through no fault of his own—his previous family simply no longer had the time to care for him. Despite the sudden change, he’s remained calm, kind, and full of quiet hope. Chester has spent his whole life as an outdoor dog, so living indoors will be a new chapter for him—but one he’s ready to explore. He’ll need a patient family willing to help him adjust to new routines, sounds, and spaces. He’s not housebroken yet, but he’s a smart boy who wants to please and will thrive with gentle guidance and consistency. He’s a mild-mannered guy—low energy, easygoing, and happiest when he’s near his people. He gets along well with other dogs, is respectful of cats, and has experience around livestock. He’s also good with children, making him a wonderful option for a calm, family-oriented household. Chester is a bit overweight right now, but with a healthy diet and a few extra walks, he’ll be on the path to feeling his best again soon (and he’ll enjoy every step of the way, as long as it’s beside you). Chester may be older, but he still has so much life and love left to give. He’s looking for a quiet, loving home that will give him the second chance he deserves—somewhere warm, safe, and filled with kindness. If you believe in second chances and the love of an older dog, Chester is ready to meet you. 💛
