Description
Dog Breed: Chesapeake Bay Retriever / Labrador Retriever / Mixed (medium coat). Brooklyn is an approximate 4-month-old, 26 lb., female, Chesapeake Bay/Labrador Retriever. She will likely be a large dog full grown and reach up to 75 lbs. Brooklyn was found as a stray in Oklahoma near the beginning of August before going into foster care down there. We think her time on the streets set her back a bit in feeling comfortable with anything new including people, dogs, and her schedule. Any change to her routine or surroundings is upsetting to her and she becomes very timid and seeks flight, although this is improving everyday. She has been in foster care with us for about a month now and she has opened up a lot and becoming much more confident. Brooklyn is being fostered with two large dogs and looks to them for direction and guidance. She needs another confident, compatible dog in her new home that can continue helping her open up to the world and learn how to enjoy a care-free life. Overall, Brooklyn is a sweet girl and has so much potential with a family that can be gentle and understanding as she grows and gets comfortable with her new life. She does well on a leash and, other than being frightened by vehicles, she enjoys her daily walks. House training is going pretty well, but she needs to be on a strict schedule and does have an occasional accident. She does well in her kennel and has used it for refuge when she feels overwhelmed. Brooklyn is not living with cats so we don't know her compatibility with them. We feel Brooklyn could do well with kids, but it would be best for her to be in a home with older children that will give her space and go slow as she gets comfortable. She loves her toys and seems to have a natural instinct for fetch.

Breed overview
Overview:
The Chesador, a captivating blend of the Chesapeake Bay Retriever and the Labrador Retriever, is a relatively new designer breed gaining popularity for its excellent qualities. Originating from the desire to combine the robust retrieving abilities of both parents, these dogs typically inherit a medium to large build, with a dense, water-repellent coat that can range in color from chocolate to black, yellow, or even a reddish hue, often with the wavy texture of the Chessie. Their temperament is generally described as intelligent, loyal, and energetic, making them highly trainable and eager to please. While their energetic nature means they thrive in homes with a yard and active families, their desire to be with their people can make them adaptable to larger apartments if provided with ample exercise. Potential owners should be aware of common health concerns for their parent breeds, such as hip and elbow dysplasia, progressive retinal atrophy, and bloat, making responsible breeding and regular veterinary check-ups essential for a healthy companion.
