My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Cheerio
Est 2 yrs old
HW neg
UTD on HW prevention
UTD on vaccinations
Neutered
Microchipped
16lbs
Crate trained
Knows sit command
Long hair but not a shedder- will need occasional grooming throughout his life!!
Rescued from a high kill shelter before being euthanized for aggression towards people. Poor thing was just terrified being in a strange place. Once out of the shelter, his whole temperament changed. He's an amazing little boy!!! He loves everybody!!!! Great with other dogs, kids, adults. Very tolerant with little kids as well. He likes cats more than they seem to like him. Lol. Loves playing, a sucker for belly rubs, loves his toys, treats in the home are a must 😜 he enjoys spending time outside in the sun, not a big fan of bad weather. He likes cozy blankets to snuggle with at bedtime. He is a terrier breed so he does get excited over birds and squirrels and likes to bark at them and occasionally chase them away. I would not recommend a home close to traffic. Fenced in yard would be best. He is very obedient and wants to please people. He seems to prefer playing with big dogs over little dogs but still loves everyone. Although he is crate trained, I am still working with him to teach him not to hike. A dedicated foster or adopter who could work with him consistently would be great. He's a very fast learner!!! He's a great boy with a huge personality. Would be great for a family, a couple, or a single person. Can be an only dog but would do great with another dog too. He enjoys swimming in kiddie pools to cool off as well.
