Meet Checkers, a sweet and affectionate dog who's looking for the perfect home to share his love and loyalty. Here's what makes him special:
- Checkers adores his humans and enjoys cuddling up, especially if he gets to sleep in bed with his family.
- Loves squeaky and fluffy toys, going on walks, and spending quality time with his people.
- Naturally protective of his yard and loved ones, but he responds well to corrections.
- While not yet fully house trained, Checkers takes corrections well and has the potential to thrive with consistent guidance.
- Stubborn at times, but his sweet and loving nature shines through.
- Would do best in a home without older, low-energy dogs and with a family ready to guide him and enjoy his affectionate companionship.
Checkers is a loyal, affectionate dog who will bring so much love to the right home. If you're ready to help this sweet boy thrive, come meet him today!
