Cherry

I got my dog, Cherry, from an animal shelter when she was 6 months old. All they knew about her was that she was a Boston Terrier mix. From what I can tell and vets confirmed, she is most likely mixed with a pit. Imagine- a Boston terrier and pit mix. I am a 24 year old with a 4 year old daughter, and Cherry fits in perfectly with us. About 5 weeks after I adopted her, I was sexually assaulted in my apartment by a 310 pound man, and this little 15 pound, 6 month old pup literally saved my life. Ever since, she is constantly by my side, and alerts me to anything. My Cherry is my little angel...even if she can be stubborn!! She only wants to please us, and is the biggest cuddle bug ever.
