Imagine having the only world you’ve ever known turned upside down. That’s what happened to Chachee and his BFF Snickers when their owner passed away and the surviving family members did not want them. When they first came into rescue, Chachee was frightened, but who wouldn’t be under the circumstances? With time and patience, he has come to learn that there are many trusting people in the world, and has become a playful, fun, snuggle bug. Now, he is ready to find his forever home(s), either separately or with Snickers. Chachee does well with the other dogs he lives with and is interested and submissive with the new dogs he meets. Cats and other small animals are a bit scary to him. He does well with women, but we are not sure how he is with men or kids since he’s always lived with women. He was very nervous meeting new people when he first came into rescue, but he’s getting more tolerant as his world gradually gets a bigger. Chachee is affectionate and outgoing and barks in play. He loves all kinds of toys and play and loves to check out new places. He does well crated in the car and is house and leash trained. This middle-aged gentleman is looking for a loving home that is patient and willing to expose him to new things gradually. Training is essential for keeping a dog safe and helping them navigate the world better. As with all rescues, training will help Chachee become more confident and improve his bond with you. So, if you are looking for a pint-sized bundle of love and fun, Chachee may be the pup for you! An adoption donation is required for each adoption; please see HERE for more information about this.
