About Colby Cheese

Meet Colby Cheese!

Colby Cheese is an 11-year-old, 20 lb Mini Poodle with a big personality and an even bigger heart. This charismatic little gentleman absolutely adores people—he lights up the moment he gets attention and has a way of making everyone feel like his new best friend. Colby gets along with big dogs, tiny dogs, and cats. He is full of life and love, and he is truly a wonderful dog. Colby's story hasn't been the easiest. He was found wandering the streets suffering from mange, but despite everything he's been through, his spirit remains bright and loving. Now that he's safe and receiving the care he needs, his sweet personality truly shines. All he wants is affection, companionship, and a place to finally call home.

Ideal Home

Colby would thrive in a home where he can soak up love, enjoy cozy naps, and be someone's loyal sidekick. Whether it's lounging beside you or greeting you with a happy little prance, Colby is simply happiest when he's with his people.

Ongoing Health

Colby does have a grade 5/6 heart murmur and would require medication for the rest of his life. He was put under anesthesia for a neuter and dental and crashed, so he was not able to be neutered. For this reason, his adoption fee is waived to a good home.

Training & Support

Colby is a GREAT dog and deserves a home of his own.
