Why I need a new home

Does not get along with other pet

My story

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


Chester will be 13 in October. He doesn't have much of a sense of humor, but will love on you if you let him. He would love someone to cuddle with. He is house trained and knows "sit" but will do so reluctantly (sweet but stubborn old man). He currently lives with two dogs (he has known them since they were pups), but doesn't get along with all dogs. He'd probably appreciate being an only dog. He is having a rough time being around two bigger dogs that play too rough with his old bones. He is a short and squatty man with expressive brown eyebrows. His little legs and old age are starting to lead to problems going up/down stairs. If you asking him a question, he will usually answer yes by licking his chops. He is used to a fenced in yard with plenty of space to run, but can be a bit territorial when other dogs walk by.

Ultimately Chester would love someone to show him some love as he begins to slow down. Cuddles, small comfy bed, and some squirrel watching are all he needs.
