Cheerio is very good about being brushed, but wary of the clippers and scissors that are necessary to maintain her fluffy coat. Desensitization and an experienced groomer are a must for keeping her clean, comfortable, and healthy. Cheerio may be successful in a home with a confident canine companion to teach her the ropes, as after a calm introduction Cheerio is very playful with other dogs. However, we don't recommend Cheerio go to a home with cats or young children. We strongly recommend that Cheerio's adopters meet with an AnimalKind trainer to get started on the right foot once she gets home, and to ensure her training is consistent. With gentle guidance from an experienced owner, she is sure to become more confident and eager to explore the world around her with newfound assurance.
Please come into the shelter during visiting hours if you would like to meet me. You can also submit an application online if I am in foster or you would like to save some time when you come visit. While we do welcome online applications, in person meets have top priority.
