 Quick Bio:
 Birthday: April 1st 2006
 Likes: Eating and playing! Or playing and eating...Wrestling. Leaning on his people. Watching Animal Planet, dog shows and nature specials.

Pet-Peeves: Not being allowed on the couch in his new home. Having his nails trimmed.

Favorite Toy: "Giant size" nylabones, tennis balls,frisbee. He loves to fetch.

Favorite Food: Anything in front of his nose. He gets Wellness dry food and always wants more.He loves occasional vanilla ice cream and healthy dog biscuits.

Favorite Walk: Anywhere with Mom- the longer the better!

Best Tricks: Being incredibly handsome and loving. He makes my heart melt!

Arrival Story: I read about him on one of my rescue email lists. He had been living with a family in SC that allowed their young children to drag him by his ears and step on him. They fed him mac & cheese, which made him sick. When Trey, who was visiting, asked them to be nice to the puppy, the Mom replied they didn't want him & were taking him to a shelter, so it didn't matter. Trey took him to his Mom, Roxanne, (hurray!) thus saving his life.
I volunteered to take him, thinking that he'll mesh with our current 2 dogs, a Boxer and a German Shepherd. Then I found out that the rescue transport I had already volunteered to do was leaving 7 miles from his rescuer's town- this little guy is supposed to be with us, I believe. He arrives on the transport tomorrow afternoon!
Update: 3 years after he arrived as a poop-covered puppy, Chester has grown into a nearly 70 pound, extremely loving dog who makes me smile every day. Please adopt- for the animal's sake and yours!

Bio: I told our GSD, McKinley and Boxer, Honey (both spayed/neutered) that Chester would be their "love child". He sure looks like it.

It was on for a week and my regular vet took it off before it could start causing problems.
I feel much better now that I can see and clean my own paw!
(I didn't take it off myself, Pennie, because a dogter put it on and I wanted a dogter to take it off...)
I hope all my other Pals are doing well. I saw an especially bright, shiny star that looked like it eas SMILING last nigtht, so I know Sasha is safe at the Bridge.

There was a GIANT, ENORMOUS, REALLY BIG skunk in the ravine near Aunt Susan's house. Minnie and I broke away from our safe leashed walk and went racing over to meet him! Minnie, as previously mentioned, got sprayed. I stepped weird on a rock and...the rest is history.
More painfully, I just read that my great friend Sasha, with the fabulous pittie SMILE, has gone to the Bridge in my absence from Dogster.
Smile on, Angel Sasha- love you lots.
