About Chester (Wheaten Terrier) in Grovertown, IN 46531

Chester is waiting for you at Save A Dog Rescue in Grovertown, IN 46531. Please read this entire description before applying.Chester is a 9monthold Whoodle (Wheaten Terrier/Poodle mix) who came into rescue with his brother, Corkie. Both boys had very little early social experience, and Chester is the more cautious of the two. He learns best by watching another dog and following their lead. Chester will need a friendly, gentle resident dog his size or smaller who can show him the ropes and help him continue building confidence.He is a sweet, observant puppy who is making steady progress, and he’s ready for an adopter who understands shy dogs and can offer consistency, patience, and a quiet environment where he can settle in.Chester is currently rejecting leash training and is not yet ready for walks. A secure, fully fenced yard is required. He is a flight risk when scared, so doors, gates, and transitions must be handled carefully. He cannot be crated due to his history of being kept in a crate at the breeder, which contributes to his anxiety. When unattended, he should be kept in a safe room with a pet gate instead. Potential adopters must live within 50 miles of Northwest Indiana. Chester is neutered, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines.ADOPTION REQUIREMENTS• Fully fenced backyard (no invisible fences).• Primary caregiver home more often.• Children 13+.• Calm, patient household.• Must have a friendly resident dog his size or smaller — essential for his confidence and continued progress.• No crates — use a petgated room when he is unattended.• Experience with shy or unsocialized dogs is a plus.Please put in an application on our website.
