Meet Chester, a lively Labrador Retriever mix who just turned one in February. He is loyal, affectionate, energetic, and eager to be part of his people’s everyday adventures. With patience, structure, exercise, and continued training, Chester has wonderful potential as an active companion.

Ideal Home

Chester would do best as the only dog in an adult home with a securely fenced yard. He is an enthusiastic runner’s companion who enjoys having a job and plenty to do. He tends to prefer men but has shown affection for his family’s 18-year-old daughter. He can become anxious when left alone and must be crated when home alone. Because he has run off twice, he needs secure supervision and a leash or lead outside enclosed areas.

Ongoing Health

• Chester is spayed/neutered and vaccinated.

Training & Support

• Chester is house-trained and knows how to sit and give paw.
• He is still working on jumping and manners and needs consistent, patient training.
• He is affectionate, wants to stay close to his people, and prefers sleeping in bed with them.
