Meet CHEROKEE — a loyal, goofy athlete who still lives for a good game of fetch. This strong, spirited senior loves frisbees, tug, sunshine, and stretching his legs in the yard. He’s the kind of dog who bonds deeply with his person — and once you’ve earned his trust, you’ll have a devoted companion for life (and plenty of head leans and belly rub requests). CHEROKEE has come a long way since arriving at our rescue in 2019 with severe hip and leg injuries. Today, he’s active, happy, and thriving — but he does best in a home that understands his boundaries. 👉 Cherokee’s ideal adopter: • Adult-only home • Only pet • Experienced owner comfortable with structure and routine • Secure yard preferred 👉 He has resource guarding around food, which is easily managed with consistency and a confident handler. Our team works with him successfully every day. Cherokee isn’t for everyone — but for the right person, he is incredibly loyal, entertaining, and deeply rewarding. If you have the experience and environment he needs, we’d love to hear from you. 📄 Apply to adopt: www.noahs-arks.net/nar-application 📧 NoahsArksRescue@mac.com ☎️ 843-540-6755 📱 See more of us on Instagram: @noahsarksrescue ABOUT US: Noah’s Arks Rescue is a nonprofit providing emergency medical help and rehabilitation to abused and neglected dogs.
