My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Chester is a mature, but still energetic 5yr old pocket pittie. Everyone is so amazed at how small he is. He's only 40lbs, but looks even smaller because he's short and stocky. He's pretty strong, so probably not best with little kids. He loves a romp in a yard, a nice walk, or a ride in the car. He's a confident little guy that will sit, stay and loves to play fetch. He's good with meeting new people, visitors and does well at the vet with staff and procedures. They love his wiggly greeting and licks! Chester can go on walks with other dogs, and he can be around other dogs, but he'll be best having his own home as an only pet. In your home, he'd be great in a kennel or he can free roam without being destructive. He's also going to be ok in a home if you have a 9-5 and have to be away. In the right home, he'll be a great 4 legged addition!

It is the policy of the society to provide humane care and treatment for animals needing protection in the area served by the society; to seek to return lost animals to their owners; to seek suitable homes for animals without owners; to promote spay/neuter in the community; to encourage a network of foster homes for adoptable animals, to aid in encouraging adequate conditions in our city shelter and to educate this community in living with their pet and being responsible pet owners, i.e.-education on health, training and behavioral care, as well as ways to recognize abuse, neglect or cruelty. In its care and disposition of animals, the society shall maintain the highest level of care and integrity in placement, care and education.

We will be active in our community educating the children in our schools, bringing the community together with fundraisers and pet friendly events and ensuring each pet owner has all the resources/information necessary to care for their pet.
