This beautiful girl was pulled from the pound by our sister rescue, and while all her siblings have found their families, Swiss Cheese is still patiently waiting for hers. At around 15 pounds now, she’s expected to be about 40–45 pounds full grown — the perfect medium-sized companion.

Swiss Cheese is everything you want in a puppy: friendly, playful, and absolutely full of joy. She has the sweetest personality and the kind of energy that makes every day a little brighter. And let’s talk about those ears — long, pointy, and impossible to ignore. They give her the most expressive little face and only add to her charm.

As for breed? Your guess is as good as ours. AI suggests some kind of terrier mix, but really, she’s 100% adorable — and that’s what matters most.

She’s ready to learn, love, and grow up alongside her forever family. After everything she’s been through, she deserves a home where she’ll never be left behind again.
