Sheryl

Chihuahua/Mixed Breed (Medium)

Female, 11 mos

Fairlawn, OH

Size

(when grown) Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less

Details

Good with dogs,

Story

Meet Sheryl! This adorable, almost 1-year-old chihuahua mix weighs just 10 pounds and has a sweet but cautious personality. Sheryl came from a hoarding situation, so she takes time to feel comfortable around new people and environments. While she may shy away at first, Sheryl loves to sneak up next to you on the couch once she feels safe. Sheryl adores other dogs of all sizes and would thrive in a home with a friendly canine companion and a secure, fenced yard where she can hop and frolic to her heart’s content. She’s making great progress with housebreaking and is crate-trained. Sheryl finds comfort in her crate and tends to hide under the couch or bed when nervous, making her crate her safe place. She hasn’t met kids or cats yet, but due to her timid nature, Sheryl would do best in a home with older children or no children. She’s still unsure about loud noises and fast movements, so a calm and patient household will help her build confidence. Sheryl is spayed, microchipped, up-to-date on vaccines, and current on heartworm, flea, and tick prevention. Her adoption fee is $300. Ready to make Sheryl part of your family?

Good with kids, Good with dogs, Good with cats, Needs experienced adopter,

Story

He was abandoned out in the country and a friend told us about him so we went and got him. Vet says hes a little over 2 years old. He is the sweetest most loving dog ever. He loves to cuddle and loves pillows. He needs a bigger yard and people that can walk him more. He does sometimes pee in the house even though we put a dog door in. I feel if he had a bigger yard and was walked more he would stop. We hope to find him a loving home.
