DOG'S DESCRIPTION:
Claire is a lucky pup who landed in a wonderful foster home with another dog to play and romp with! She’s an active, energetic bundle of joy, full of personality and affection. Claire gets along great with the resident dog and would thrive in a home with another similarly active dog. She loves sniffing around and is very nose-driven, making her a great candidate for scent games. With her boundless energy, she would also excel at agility training.
Claire already knows how to sit, especially when there’s a treat in sight! She’s also comfortable in her crate for a few hours. Her absolute favorite things (besides people) are stuffed animals, particularly the squeaky ones! She’ll even bring them to you to toss or try to tease the other dog, Toasty, with them. Claire can be a bit of a brat when it comes to stealing treats, so any existing dogs should be okay with her cheeky antics.She’s completely potty trained with the doggie door and has no accidents when the backyard is accessible. It took her a bit to understand the dog door, but now she can easily go in and out on her own, and even scratches to get back inside if the door is closed.
Claire has the personality of a mix between a Corgi and a Boxer. She’s always batting at things with her paws and has a Corgi-like body and ears. As a result, she’ll need a family who’s ready to work with her on her playful, jumping, and batting tendencies (older children or those used to energetic play would be ideal). Claire also loves to climb up on chairs and crawl around on her foster mom like a little cat until she finds the perfect spot for cuddles. Once settled, she’s happiest when she’s getting all the love and attention.
Claire is a sweet, affectionate, and lovable dog, just the right size with a great personality. If you’re looking for a playful, snuggly companion, Claire might be the perfect fit for your family! Apply today to bring her into your home.
Your new pet will require a refresher in house-training. K-9 Lifesavers strongly recommends all new adopters enroll their new pet into obedience training. This provides for an easier transition into a new home, ensures the dog remains well socialized, and helps form a bond between the dog and the new family.
Adoption fees cover basic vetting, rabies (if puppy is old enough), distemper/parvo vaccinations, deworming, monthly heartworm prevention while in our care (if old enough), monthly flea/tick prevention while in our care, and transport costs. K-9 Lifesavers will also cover the cost of spay/neuter at our partner vet at 6 months of age or reimburse adopter for up to the amount of our partner vet cost should you choose to spay/neuter at your own vet.
