My story

8 months / 8lbs If you’re looking for a dog who will provide endless snuggles and kisses, Cheese is your man. He may be pint-sized, but he is FULL of personality. Once he’s done zooming around and playing with his toys—especially his tennis ball—he’s ready to snuggle in your lap. Cheese is the kind of pup who wants to be wherever you are. He will trail behind you, always curious, always close. At bedtime, he’s happiest curled right up in your arms and completely content. Cheese is not a fan of the crate but is house trained / will use pads. He’s great with other dogs, unbothered by cats, and adores kids, especially the ones who are down for playtime followed by surprise kisses. He currently lives with cats and dogs (all sizes). Hes a typical chi. If you know and love the breed - then you know!! His foster says: “He absolutely loves dogs and other dogs that come over, though it usually takes him a few hours to warm up. At first, he tends to bark at them, which is similar to how he reacts around new people. He adores everyone!He is bursting with energy, he loves walking, running, and playing. He absolutely hates being crated and will only sleep in the bed, right by my head, and sleeps through the night. He also loves car rides he goes with me every afternoon to pick the kids up from the car rider line.”

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Cheese, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
