Story
**My adoption fee has been waived by a generous donor!**Chef is currently in a foster home and not residing at the care center. If you are interested in adopting Chef, please call the Program Coordinator at 508-775-4112 or email capevolunteer@mspca.org!---If you love a slow simmer and know that good things come as a result of time and care, you`ll fall in love with Chef. This spry grandpa might take a little time to settle into your home, but once he does, you`ll experience his beautiful, cuddly, patient, and sweet soul. He would love to be your one and only. Chef spends a lot of his time napping, preferably in close proximity to or on his humans. He loves a lap or a shoulder on which to place his head. He can cuddle for hours when he`s in a certain mood, and he`s been known to climb into laps like a cat: however, he appreciates his space sometimes, too. More than anything, he loves sniffing. Be prepared for some slow walks while he sniffs every lawn, hydrant, and bush he can get his nose on. He appreciates patience while he explores scents, especially because he`s unable to hear. He gets energetic a couple of times a day, but if given a choice of his favorite projects - a stuffed Kong, a chew toy, a bully stick, a broth ice cube - he`s able to settle. He`ll ask for pets when he`d like them, but sometimes he just likes to stand near his humans while he looks around and sniffs. Because of his deafness, he appreciates a careful approach. Two of Chef`s best traits are his gentleness and patience. Sure, he`s a klutz, and a master of physical comedy, but he is gentle and patient with his humans. Life with Chef means a life with cuddles, snuggles, laughter, treats, leisurely walks, and lots of naps. If you`re ready to greet every day with happy tail wags and soulful brown eyes, then you should say, Yes, Chef! Please note, in an effort to keep the stress levels reduced for the dogs in our care, our dog kennel areas will not be open to walk through. Interested adopters will work with a matchmaker on staff to determine which dog(s) they are interested in and if we can identify a match, potential adopters will be able to meet those dogs outside of the kennel. Cat and small animal areas will remain open to walk through.
