Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Chester is a beautiful two-year-old Great Pyrenees rescued from Arkansas. In his previous life, Chester was an outdoor dog, so his foster family is working on basic commands, leash manners and helping to build his confidence. Chester is a typical Pyr who loves to spend time outside, and when he's inside he prefers to sit at the highest point in the house so he can have the best view to watch over his humans. Chester is a sweet, independent boy who loves children and gets along with almost all other dogs. Chester feels insecure around confident male dogs that are larger than he is, but at 95 lbs and gaining, that doesn't leave a many competitors! Chester is lovable, endearing and a little bit stubborn sometimes (as is typical of his breed and his age). He is also laid back. Chester is extremely gentle, he snores in his sleep, when he's sniffing around intently he snorts, just a little bit, he loves to be brushed (Great Pyrenees shed and need to be brushed regularly) and he sleeps by the door or anywhere he feels he's in a position to watch over his family. Chester is being fostered in Colorado and would love to find a family that spends time outdoors and who has some experience with larger dogs.
