Adopt Chester

Labrador Retriever · Male · Young · 2 years

2 1/2 year old Fox Red, Chester is now looking for a new home. He has been in kennels whilst his family took a holiday. He is an affectionate boy once he gets to know you but can be a little nervous of strangers coming into the home and will bark at men until he feels relaxed around them. He lives at home with 2 children aged 5 & 8 and settles well around young people. He has a family dog that visits most days and he is fine with familiar dogs. He knows all the basic commands and will do anything for a treat! Chester enjoys cuddles on the sofa and is not destructive around the home. He enjoys going for walks and he is not reactive to other dogs although he loves to play if allowed. His owners do not let him off the lead as he does need some help with his recall. If he sees cats, he will chase them. Chester has lots of toys but he doesn’t really play with them although he does enjoy a ball in the garden. He travels well in the car. He can be quite anxious if people approach him whilst out walking and because of this he may be better suited to an environment that isnt built up and busy. He can live with another dog. If you are able to offer this lovely boy his forever home please email with some information about yourself, your experiences and the home that you have to offer him “Possible home being seen” Please only apply if you are in one of the areas we cover. If you would like to register your interest please email giving details of your experience and the home you have to offer. If you are shortlisted you will be contacted further.
