Cheesecake is a young man that was surrendered to Mag Mutts from a breeding operation.

This ‘dish’ is a little guy, born 2/20/2024 making him just under 1 year old and weighing about 17lbs.  

Cheesecake is more brave when he has a buddy, so another playful, active dog in the home is required. He is a little timid at first but will warm up. A fenced yard is also required for his safety as he does like to run.

House training is going well when kept on a schedule and he is also doing well with walking on a leash.

He has not been around small children, so kids in the home should be 6+ years old and have the ability to understand that he will need extra time to warm up and that fast movements and loud noises may startle him.  

We recommend obedience training for all pups and dogs!
   

**Breed or size (once fully grown) is a ‘best guess’ and is not guaranteed since they arrived into rescue without either parent.

Please ensure your current pets are up to date with vetting, have landlord/HOA approval and are prepared to take your new family member home at the adoption appointment.  Thank you for your interest!
