Hi there! I'm Checkers and I'm a puppy at heart. My foster mama says I'm a loveable boy who wags like crazy when I see her. I prefer female humans, but I can become friends with nice males too. I like to go for car rides, and I'm although I don't like my crate, I'm fine left out in a dog-safe house. Although I have some puppy playfulness, I don't bark often, which I think my foster humans like! I'll be your best friend if you apply to adopt me!
About my Behaviour:
I'm great on leash, but I do get a bit scared of cars going by for now. I'm learning that I shouldn't counter surf and steal mom and dad's food, so obedience class would be great for me. I need a fenced yard where I can be freeeeee.
How’s my Health?
I was attacked by a predator animal and nearly died, but after a long surgery, I'm now recovering well. I have shrapnel from a bullet inside me (about 25 small pieces), and I had to have a toe amputated on my front foot from an infection from one of these pieces.
