chakde!

ChakDe is a couch dog through and through, and he has absolutely no apologies about it.

This sweet, gentle boy only wants to be right next to his person. On the couch, in bed, at your feet…he'll take whatever he can get, really. He sleeps through the night, loves being talked to and pet, and has a scrunchy little face that would make even the Grinch’s heart melt.

He's not particularly food or toy-motivated yet, but responds to sweet talk and gentle touch (yes, it’s as cute as it sounds). He's mellow when he's with someone he's bonded to, and is showing some nice signs of independence, too. He’s still potty training, so some attention to that will help as he settles in.

If it wasn’t obvious by now, ChakDe would do best in a home where someone is around regularly, because what even is life without constant connection? If that sounds like your kind of pup, we want to hear from you!

A Quick but Important Note to All Adopters:
Please remember that none of our dogs arrive fully trained. Most come from tough or uncertain beginnings and may have never lived in a home or known basic routines. That means:

✧ They are not potty trained on arrival. Most dogs regress in potty training when moving to a new environment.

✧ They may lack basic manners (like leash walking or appropriate chewing).

✧ They’re learning, growing, and doing their best—but they will need patience, structure, and compassion to succeed.

The majority of these pups have lived in the confinement of a cage or kennel run for most - if not all - of their lives. Because of this, we strongly discourage the use of crates for anything other than vehicle transport. They deserve the chance to decompress and learn what true freedom and comfort feel like.

Our amazing foster homes work hard to start these dogs on the right path, but they are rescues, not finished products. These dogs need time, consistency, and a loving home willing to meet them where they are.

Also, breed designations are our best guesses based on appearance and behavior. We can't guarantee breed, size, adult weight, or coat type.
