Checkers hasn’t had the easiest start, but he’s full of quiet potential. Naturally shy, he isn’t the dog who’ll come running up right away but once he feels safe, he’ll come closer and eventually settle in your arms. A home with a friendly resident dog could help him come out of his shell even faster too. If you’re the kind of person who believes in the beauty of watching a shy dog come to life, Checkers is waiting just for you!
