Hello, my name is Cherry. I’m 16 weeks old as of July 26, 2019. As I am still a puppy, I have lots of learning ahead of me. But my foster dad tells me I’m doing so great so far! 

When I first arrived at his house, I was pretty shy. I liked to stay in the entry way of my foster house during my first day there. But it did not take me long to get comfy, and within a couple of days I felt bold enough to venture out into the kitchen and the hallway to where my food and water is kept. 

I like to go outside several times a day. A good stick is always fun for me to find, and I like to haul and carry one around and play with it. I am also really starting to like playing "fetch." Though my surrendering owner said I was not potty-trained, I am really starting to get the hang of it. Foster dad tells me it won’t be long and I’ll be good to go and fully house-trained.

I’ve been working on some basic commands: sit, down, etc. I feel like I’m picking them up pretty quickly. When I do what my foster dad tells me, he gives me a yummy piece of cheese or hot dog. He thinks I have the ability to learn all kinds of stuff. I say that I will do just about anything if there’s a nice little reward in it for me. As I love to please my foster dad, this works out pretty neat for both of us. 

I know living with my foster dad is just a temporary gig. He keeps telling me that I’m gonna make some lucky family very happy someday when I find my fur-ever home. I hope I can make them just as happy!
