Meet Clifford!

Clifford is a loving, playful boy whose true personality shines outside of the shelter. While the shelter environment has been tough on him—especially being around other dogs—he blossoms beautifully in a home setting. Once he feels safe and relaxed, Clifford becomes the fun-loving, affectionate companion he was meant to be.

In a home, Clifford is polite, housebroken, and crate trained. He especially loves spending time at the park and playing fetch—his favorite way to bond with his people. While he’s not a fan of most other dogs (which adds to his stress at the shelter), we’ve been working with him, and he’s making great progress. He tends to do better with dogs who enjoy being chased and give him space, rather than those who are overly forward.

Clifford is a sweetheart at heart—he just needs the right family to take him away from the stress of shelter life and give him the patience and love he’s so ready to return. If you’re looking for a loyal, well-mannered companion who thrives in a home and lives for playtime and connection, Clifford is ready to meet you.
