There's a lot to learn when you have a new pet. Our sister brand, The Wildest, is here to support you—with new pet checklists, virtual training, and expert guides. Sign up for free.
** I am currently being housed at our New York Avenue location. Come meet me at 1201 New York Avenue NE, every day from 12pm-7pm. Please arrive no later than 6:30 p.m. to allow ample time to interact with adoptable dogs. Or visit humanerescuealliance.org/how-to-adopt to learn more.
Everybody loves cheesecake and, of course, by extension, everybody loves me -- because my name is Cheesecake! And I love my name because everybody smiles when they say it (apparently there is a phrase that goes like "say cheese" and people think it's funny!).
Anyhoo, I digress. I mostly wanted to introduce myself to you and tell you that I am a very sweet (hence the name, but I already mentioned that) gal -- just a bit nervous because, let me tell you, my life's been a bit upside down lately. Somebody found me in their neighborhood and brought me to the shelter and while the people are sooo nice here, it's also an unfamiliar place and sometimes a bit loud.
Which gets us to you: if you have some space in your heart and your home for a sweet loyal companion like me that just needs a bit of time to warm up and settle in, then I am your gal. I'll make you smile all the time every day (at least every time you say "cheese") and will bring lots of sweetness into your life. Oh and one ironic thing about me - I actually don't like cheese (!).
