About Chester
Introducing Charming Chester đ„°
Unfortunately at 12 years old, this adorable boy has found himself left at a pound. Chester is still young at heart and has a beautiful, happy nature â€ïž
HOUSEHOLD - Chester would suit a variety of households due to his older age and happy go lucky nature. He loves to feel included even if it is simply allowing him in the house, giving him a few scratches behind the ear, going out for a short walk or spending time sitting down keeping each other company.
ON-GOING TRAINING - Chester seems to be a naturally calm boy and hasn't shown too many habits that raise concern. We believe Chester may be hard of hearing therefore he requires extra help for him to focus on what you may want him to do.
ON LEAD - Chester is quite easy on the leash, will go to the end of it and may pull slightly to get to something that interests him. He enjoys a leisurely walk to sniff and scent mark anywhere he can. Chester seems unaware of his age and will continue to walk for as long as you allow him.
PLAY/TOYS - This precious boy loves toys, especially squeaky ones.
OTHER DOGS - Chester has met a few dogs, each time he barely noticed them until they were right in front of him. He allows them to sniff and lick him but simply turns away, more interested in sniffing his environment rather then joining in with play or socialising. He happily walks with a dog beside him with no issues.
CATS/OTHER ANIMALS- When we walked Chester through our cattery he showed no interest in cats, simply continuing to walk and sniff rather than even looking at them.
CARE/GROOMING - Chester is an easy boy to handle. He has a short coat which will require a weekly brush and wash when needed.
EXERCISE - Chester requires a daily walk with plenty of opportunities to take breaks along the way.
NUTRITION - Chester is a non fussy eater and currently enjoys a combination of senior wet and dry food.
BREED - Boxer x Ridgeback
