Pet Pal Animal Shelter

When we first met Chester, he was a bit timid. He would watch us quietly from a distance, staring with those beautiful brown eyes. But after a few treats and head rubs, he will give you all of the love and devotion you would expect from a hound. Chester would love a home that will give him the time and love he needs to build his confidence. He is a 4-year-old, 43-pound beagle mix.

Who wouldn’t love this big handsome guy? Swiftie is looking for a couch of his own to reign over. He hopes his human staff will have plenty of treats to offer and scritches on hand. Swiftie is FeLV+, so can’t be adopted into a home with FeLV negative cats. However, it is perfectly safe for them to be around dogs and people!
