Story
Cheerio is a 1-year-old sweet and affectionate young dog with a gentle, sensitive personality. He is dog friendly and enjoys being around other dogs in a comfortable, familiar environment.Cheerio can be nervous around new people at first and will need a little time to warm up. Once he feels safe, his loving and social side shines through—he enjoys closeness and will happily settle in as a lap dog seeking affection and comfort.He allows full body handling and is very tolerant during interaction. Cheerio doesn’t know formal commands yet, but he enjoys engaging with people in a playful, rough-and-tumble way once he feels relaxed.With patience, consistency, and reassurance, Cheerio will continue to grow in confidence and show more of his affectionate personality.If you`re looking for a soft-hearted, cuddly companion who just needs a bit of time to shine, Cheerio may be the perfect match.

Pebbles is a sweet girl who loves making herself at home! She’s currently living with a small dog in her foster home, and the two enjoy playing in the yard and soaking up the sunshine together. She’s making progress with her house training and is always on the hunt for her next tasty snack! Pebbles will need a little help keeping her foodie habits in check and a secure outdoor setup, as she can jump a 4-foot fence. If you’re looking for a fun companion to share sunny afternoons and lots of love, Pebbles could be your girl!
