About Cheese
Meet Cheese! đ§
As his name suggests, Cheese is a smiley and super clever bundle of joy whoâs ready to fill your life with endless love and laughter đ
This playful and friendly pup is just the companion you needâwhether youâre out for an adventurous walk or curling up at home for some cozy downtime đŽ
Cheese has an incredibly affectionate nature that makes him an absolute favourite among everyone he meets, and youâre guaranteed to fall head over heels in love with his quirky personality within minutes! đ„°
Cheese is currently in foster care with one of our foster superheroes and is absolutely thriving! His foster carer has been doing a heap of work with his behaviour training, and Cheese is making excellent progress. Heâs now mastered âshakeâ (what a gentleman! đ€) and is super easy to trainâespecially if you have beef jerky handy!
đ Foster Carerâs Feedback:
â
Low maintenance: Perfect for anyone with a busy lifestyle but wanting companionship.
â
Independent: Very easy to leave at home alone; he doesnât bark except if someone knocks on the door.
â
Easy-going: Only needs a 40â60 min walk plus a few snuffle mats/enrichment activities, and heâs done for the day!
â
Training superstar: Learnt âshakeâ in just 2 days!
â
Great with female dogs: His confident, playful side blossoms in their company.
The only thing Cheese needs is a family willing to commit to active leash training and early morning walks. Heâs already improved a lotâhe wonât bark at dogs behind fences or doorsâbut he still gets reactive when passing dogs on the street. With time, socialisation, and dedication, heâll continue to make great progress.
Cheese thrives in an environment filled with love, play, and companionship. He would do well with a family eager to spend plenty of time going on adventures or simply chilling out at home đ
