My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

WE ARE A TX BASED RESCUE. THIS DOG IS CURRENTLY LOCATED IN TX AND WILL BE TRANSPORTED UPON ADOPTION. Please fill out an adoption application found at haydudeequine.org
The adoption fee is $450.00 which includes their transport, spay/neuter and all vetting.

Checkers - You are the bridge between what was and what will be, my pathway to a new life!

**I am deaf**
Named for the legendary Chubby Checkers as I still have some puppy squishiness to me and I love to dance! It is believed I'm deaf or at the very least hard of hearing. I may not be able to hear the music but I can still get those dance moves going on. Come on baby, come do the twist with me!! We can have a 'whole lot of shakin' going on'.

I'm still a youngster at around 7 months and even with my lack of hearing am your typical fun, loving life pup that enjoys everything every other pup enjoys. I am very active, social, sweet and affectionate. I am great with people, having never met a stranger yet. Everybody is my friend. I also do well with other dogs and would benefit greatly having a sibling to follow and learn from. The one good bonus of not being able to hear is that thunderstorms and fireworks don't bother me!

At 35llbs I shouldn't get a whole lot bigger when I get to my fully growed up size. That's gonna make me a great size for all kind of adventures. Whether it's a leisurely stroll, a nature hike (oooh, love all those awesome smells), camping trips, trips to the doggie park or whatever else you may want to do, I'm ready to be right there with you!

At 7 months old I'm at the perfect age to learn some sign language, do some mental puzzle games and learn to play hide and seek with you (and I'm sure to find you..my nose works great!!)

I'm doing great with my house training and am picking it up real quick.

I've got my handsome good looks, friendly personality and happy go lucky attitude but what I don't have...yet, is YOU!!
