Story
Message from Foster: Cheetah Girl is a sweet puppy who loves playing with dogs of all sizes and is just as happy romping with her canine friends as she is hanging out with her people. She’s a great walking companion, walks nicely on leash, and greets new people and dogs with calm, gentle curiosity. She already knows “leave it,” “off,” “down,” and “wait,” and is working on “sit.” She also sleeps great on her own through the night! Overall, just incredibly sweet and eager to do the right thing.
