About Cher

Meet Cher, a charming 4-year-old Shih Tzu mix with a dash of poodle. Cher is part of a bonded pair with her playmate Sonny, and they must be adopted together. She was raised in a loving home alongside Sonny until their owner had to surrender them due to allergies in the household. Cher, with her medium-length coat in a delightful white and cream mix combined with some black, is independent yet enjoys companionship. While she’s happy playing on her bed, she also appreciates your company. In contrast, Sonny is more attached and loves to snuggle in laps, following Cher around and showering her with affection. Both Cher and Sonny are vaccinated, spayed, and microchipped. They’re crate-trained, although Sonny might let out a few cries if left alone at first. While they were said to be house-trained, this hasn’t been confirmed. They’re ready to bring their joy to a new forever home. **Important adoption requirements:** Cher and Sonny need a home in the Central Ohio area. Both prospective adopters must be 24 or older, and resident pets should be spayed or neutered. The total adoption fee for this duo is $600. Ready to meet Cher and Sonny?
