My story

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

Chessie: The Gorgeous Goofball with a Heart of Gold 🐾💫
Chessie isn’t just handsome—he’s show-stoppingly stunning. With his mesmerizing merle coat and charming personality, he’s guaranteed to turn heads everywhere he goes.

But Chessie’s not all looks—this big-hearted boy is equal parts cuddle bug and playtime pro. Whether he’s zooming around the yard or flopping over for belly rubs, Chessie’s energy is infectious.

💙 Certified cuddle king and fetch fanatic
💙 Prefers to be the only pet—because hey, he wants all the love!
💙 Best for homes with older kids or adults who can keep up with his joyful chaos and size.

Chessie’s been waiting to fill someone’s home with laughter, love, and plenty of playful moments. Could that home be yours? 🏡🐾An adoption application can be filled out on the DHS website https://www.dekalbhumanesociety.org/adopt. Dog adoption fees are $250.00 for all puppies and adult dogs.

More about this shelter

At DeKalb Humane Society, we are passionate about finding forever homes for the pets in our care. Whether they are cats, dogs, or other furry friends, our mission is to provide them with a loving and nurturing environment.

We also believe in the importance of education about responsible pet ownership. We strive to educate our community about pet welfare, the benefits of spaying/neutering, and the prevention of animal abuse and neglect.

By adopting a pet from us, you are not only gaining a lifetime companion, but you are also contributing to our cause and helping us raise awareness. Together, we can make a difference in the lives of these innocent animals.

The DeKalb Humane Society filed for our Certificate of Incorporation on December 23, 1975 and we were granted 501(c)3 status in March of 1976. We are committed to being a no-kill shelter and serving the DeKalb County area.
