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's Mom's fault, of course- I have been busy.
I had a great dog walker for a couple months, twice each week, and now Minnie and I have a FENCE! It is so cool to have a private dog park in my very own yard!
My dog walker was Sammy the Wonderful Man- I love him so much *sob*. Maybe he can still walk me sometimes...
Our fence is huge- all along the back yard, down into the woods and pretty secure. It's 5 feet tall and Minnie and I still haven't found a way out, dang it. I'll keep checking, not to worry.
Mom still walks Minnie sometimes, but says she can't control me. Geesh- just because I'm over 70 pounds now and can pull her across the street whenever I want...what a wimp.I hope all my students are well- academic kisses to you all.

I'm OK, but Mom went on a trip and then went into the hospital- she's slowly getting better. We (Minnie and I) got boarded at Pampered Pets for a while and are now back home. Love to you all- I'll post when I can.

Literally! After a super-strong wind knocked down lots of trees, we lost power for almost 5 days and one night during the current heatwave. No lights, no A/C- nothing. What's a dog to do? Minnie and I stayed close to Mom, pups.
The power is finally back and we are cool again- hurray!
Did you all have problems from the storm, students? How long did it take to get your power back?
Professor Chester, glad to be cool again
