Meet Chex, the dog who believes every problem in life can be solved with…you guessed it…a ball!

​

Chex has survived more than any dog should ever have to. He’s been shot, attacked, abandoned, and spent months waiting in a shelter before finally getting the medical care he deserved. Through it all, he never lost his kind heart, his goofy spirit, or his unwavering belief that people are worth loving.

His favorite hobby? Following you around with a ball in his mouth, politely dropping it at your feet, and waiting. Ignore him? He’ll move it somewhere impossible to miss. Still busy? You’ll get one very polite “woof.” It’s impossible not to laugh and love every minute of it.

​

Chex is house-trained, crate-trained, respectful in the home, rides beautifully in the car, does great at the vet, and isn’t bothered by loud noises. He’s smart, eager to learn, and already knows commands like sit, go home, game over, speak, and go get. He’s happiest when he has a job, whether that’s playing fetch, learning new skills, or simply being your loyal sidekick.

​

Chex would thrive with an experienced, active family who appreciates a dog with some energy, drive and a sense of humor. Older, dog-savvy kids would likely be the best fit. Daily exercise, continued training, and plenty of ball time are all he asks.

 

After everything he’s endured, Chex isn’t looking for perfection. He’s looking for someone who won’t give up on him. And maybe…someone willing to retrieve the occasional ball from under the couch.
