Meet Cleo!

Let’s get this beautiful girl a home.

Cleo is a super playful and fun-loving dog who has an irresistible zest for life. Her energy is contagious, and she will always keep you on your toes with her antics. Cleo is 8 years young, and has the energy of a young pup! Cleo has a special affinity for toys, especially her beloved red ball, which brings her endless joy and entertainment.

Cleo was raised in an environment that did not prioritize socialization, so everything was new to her when she came into care. This brave and smart pup quickly learned the world is fun and exciting, and she has come a long way since being with us. Because of her unfamiliarity with new things, Cleo exhibits reactive behavior around other dogs and things that she’s not super familiar with. She may become anxious, defensive, or overly excited when encountering said things. It’s crucial to work with a professional trainer or ensure you have experience in handling challenging dogs to help Cleo overcome her reactivity. With the right guidance and training, Cleo can learn to manage her reactions and develop positive associations with most things in her life.

Cleo would love to find an adult-only home away from the hustle and bustle of city life, so she can relax and take in the world around her. Cleo LOVES her toys and LOVES her people, but she’s not great at sharing, so she would prefer to be the only pet in a home. Cleo is a lovable and affectionate dog who craves human companionship. She will appreciate a home where she can receive the love, attention, and guidance she needs to become a well-adjusted and happy member of the home. Come meet this lovely lady, so you too can fall in love with her enchanting smile and entertaining personality.
