Chelsea (SPONSORED)'s Story

🐾 Meet Chelsea 🐾<br/><br/>📅 DOB: 01/30/2022<br/>⚖️ Weight: Approximately 70 lbs<br/>🐶 Breed Guess: Pittie Mix<br/>💉 Fully Vetted: Yes<br/>💲 Adoption Fee: GENEROUSLY SPONSORED by her foster family ❤️✨ <br/><br/>Temperament ✨<br/>🐕 Dogs: Would prefer to be the only dog in the home<br/>🐱 Cats: No kitties for Chelsea<br/>👧 Children: Lives with children currently, but would thrive best with teenagers or in an adult-only home<br/>🙋 Strangers: Loves women, but can be wary of men<br/><br/>🏡 Training & Home Skills 🏡<br/>✅ Crate Trained<br/>✅ Potty Trained<br/>✅ Free-roam trustworthy<br/>✅ Loves car rides & adventures<br/><br/>Chelsea is a spirited, smart, and affectionate Pittie mix with a BIG personality and an even bigger heart 💕 She absolutely LOVES toys, walks, treats, and tagging along for car rides. While she can be full of energy during playtime, she’s equally happy curling up beside you at night for snuggles. She’ll gently nudge your hand or lift your arm with her nose when she wants more love — and honestly, it’s impossible not to adore her 🥹.<br/><br/>This clever girl is highly food motivated, making training fun and rewarding. She even knows how to open push-down door handles, so be prepared to child-lock a few doors 😂. <br/><br/>She’s also made huge progress overcoming her fear of baths thanks to the patience and dedication of her foster family. Chelsea’s personality is the perfect mix of goofy, sassy, loyal, and loving. She’s not a big barker, but she will insert herself if the kids start arguing because she clearly sees herself as the household supervisor 👑.<br/><br/>While Chelsea has made wonderful progress, she does need an experienced and understanding home. She can become overstimulated during play and tends to be mouthy when excited, so calm, structured interactions are important. Thunderstorms can still scare her, and when she’s nervous, she prefers staying close to the people she trusts most ❤️.<br/><br/>Chelsea is also reactive and has worked hard on her leash manners. With proper tools and structure, she walks very well, but because she is strong and can react to other dogs, continued management is important. She has previously shown reactivity toward male dogs and can be protective around food, so she is fed separately to keep everyone safe and comfortable. Because of her sensitivities, Chelsea would do best in a calmer home with adults or older teens. She can be fearful of men and teenage boys, especially if movements are loud or unpredictable. However, with slow introductions and patience, she has shown tremendous progress and has even accepted affection from men during outings 💛. <br/><br/>It’s clear this girl hasn’t always been treated kindly, but once she trusts you, her loyalty runs deep. Underneath her tough-girl act is a deeply loving dog who wants connection, consistency, and someone willing to understand her quirks. She’s intelligent, hilarious, adventurous, cuddly, and full of personality. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who will love you with her whole heart, Chelsea may just be your perfect match 🐾<br/><br/>📍 Located in Chicago’s southwest suburbs📅.<br/>Meet-and-greets available by approved application only📝. <br/>Apply to adopt:www.rubywhiskers.org/adopt<br/>Please only apply if you are ready to welcome a new companion into your home within 5 days of approval. We are unable to hold dogs.💉 <br/><br/>Adoption Fee Includes:<br/>✔️ Spay/Neuter<br/>✔️ Microchip<br/>✔️ Rabies Vaccine<br/>✔️ DHPP Vaccine<br/>✔️ Bordetella Vaccine<br/>✔️ 4DX Test✔️ Deworming<br/>✔️ Heartworm Prevention<br/>✔️ Flea & Tick Prevention. <br/><br/>Your adoption fee also helps support lifesaving medical care for other rescue animals in need ❤️<br/><br/>Apply to adopt:www.rubywhiskers.org/adopt
