Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Baby Cheddar is simply adorable and he just can't figure out why no one has adopted him yet. His mama is definitely a Border Collie (seen in one of the pictures) and it appears his papa may have been a Lab with possibly some Australian Shepherd mixed in there. Whatever the mix, he is smart, playful, affectionate, and as said earlier, simply adorable.
Cheddar is already crate-trained which means he is getting down the idea of house-training as well. He sleeps through the night without a peep.
We would like to find a home for the Cheddar where the family has some experience with Border Collies or some other herding breed since he will be a smart dog that bonds closely with his people and will want to work alongside them.
If you are interested in Cheddar please go to our website - throwmeabonedogrescue.org - and click on Adoption Process. There you can read about what you need to do and find a link for the application you'll need to complete and submit for pre-approval.
All potential adopters are expected to complete an application and provide pictures of their yard, patio, and/or balcony making sure we can see the fence line and/or railing. The application can be completed and submitted from our website - throwmeabonedogrescue.org - and is found under Resources. Applications will be reviewed for approval before setting an appointment to come meet and possibly adopt the dog of interest. In addition, those who live in a rental property are expected to provide proof that they are allowed to have a dog where they live.
Each of our rescued dogs has been de-wormed if necessary, de-flea'd (with topical treatment if old enough, and by medicated bath if too young), spayed/neutered, microchipped, is up to date on shots, and has been fully examined by a veterinarian. In addition, each adopted dog comes with a starter baggie of the food it has been eating, a few treats for training purposes, a rawhide chew, a lead and collar, and a folder containing pertinent records.
