Chuck

Meet Chuck – A PAW FAVORITE, Chuck is a loving boy with personality to spare! Chuck is a handsome, smart, playful 2-year-old brindle boy, weighing in at about 65 pounds. He is an affectionate cuddle bug once he gets to know and trust his humans. Despite his young age and not recognized by his shelter, Chuck developed cataracts and was functionally blind when he came to PAW—but thanks to the amazing team at PAW, he's had cataract surgery with lens implants resulting in excellent vision. These experiences at a young age and without consistent human support resulted in his being quite fearful, initially of the dark noisy unknown world and then of all the brightmess and movement (and hands approaching to give him multiple and frequent eye drops post-op) after his vision was restored.<br/><br/>These experiences early in life have resulted in his needing careful introduction to new people both on walks and in his foster home, but with guidance he rapidly becomes friendly and seeks interaction. While he barks in excitement when he meets other dogs on leash, he has done well with all dogs he has met at his fosters' homes and with their extended family and their dogs, both big and small-to-medium sized. He has made great progress with weekly training sessions in the past couple of months, and that program includes sessions as needed with an adopter. He is smart, anxious to please, and very treat motivated. <br/><br/>Chuck loves going for walks, chasing balls, cuddling, and would love to spend time exploring a yard. He has medium energy and would do well with a couple of 20-30 min walks daily and some down time in the house in between. He is housebroken, gets into his crate readily, and rides very calmly in the car. Chuck would be fine as an only dog, but he would also love to have a brother or sister to play with. <br/><br/>Can you be the one to help this very special boy continue adjusting to life now that he can see? PAW will provide training to support his adopter. He will reward you with lots of love, loyalty, and entertainment!
