Sponsored by Heather, in loving memory of Buster, our first rescue. Buster was found wandering the streets in the darkness of a cold, rainy October night; discarded as if he was nothing, Buster was Bear’s bestest buddy and completed our family turning our house into a warm, loving home.
Oh so cute Clare is ready to find her forever family.
Clare is a sweet mini poodle who is learning what life as a cherished pet is all about. She has a happy playful disposition when she is comfortable around her people. She does silly little floor wiggles when she’s happy to see you.. she stretches out and drags her back legs, tail wagging.
She is pretty much house trained, but does need regular outside visits to enforce this. She can be crated over night, or left home alone. She is dog friendly and has met one cat with little interest.
Clare would likely be find with old children as long as they are respectful of a gentle slow meeting. She’s not a fan of being reached for or grabbed at.
Clare is not leash trained yet, she has done well with adjusting to the backyard .. but city streets are busy and scary to her. She would not be suitable for an avid walker/hiker, but would be more suitable to backyard bird watcher/gardener.
She is bravest when she has another dog to lead her in adventures and is playful with her foster siblings medium and small sized.
Clare has come so far in adjusting to life after being a breeder girl. She’s learned to enjoy a soft bed, snack and just loves tiny toys she can carry around. She will bring a lot of delight to her new family.
Medical Note: Clare has grade 3 luxating patella (bilateral). The vet does not feel she requires surgery, but should maintain a healthy weight to avoid issues.
