My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Clifford!

A charismatic five-year-old Doberman/Hound mix from Columbus, Ohio, whose presence is as heartwarming as his deep reddish-brown coat. This unique blend of Doberman and Hound brings the best of both worlds—a statuesque figure with a demeanor that's all goof and no aloof. He's a bundle of love who's perfected the art of being the gentle giant in a home bustling with kids and a cat, whom he adores with slobbery kisses!

Clifford's personality is as large as he is, weighing in at a solid 90 pounds. He's been known to engage in spirited tug-of-war and fetch sessions, thriving on playful interactions. A fenced yard would be his paradise, though he's just as content with regular jaunts to the dog park. His impeccable house manners are a testament to his intelligence—never a misplaced puddle in sight!

His gentle nature extends to children of all ages, displaying an endless reservoir of patience and care. Clifford's current best friend is a feline with a taste for daring games, suggesting he would thrive in a household with energetic cats or playful kids. While his bark is robust and reassuring, signaling security for his family, it's his tender approach to life that truly endears him to all.

As much as Clifford is a nearly perfect companion, his new family will enjoy refining his obedience skills, as he can sometimes forget his manners in the thrill of new experiences. He's looking for a home where he can continue to learn and grow, ideally with someone who enjoys a bit of training and lots of cuddles!

Clifford's readiness to embrace a new chapter comes with a simple promise: endless affection, loyalty, and a bit of drool. Could your home be the next chapter in Clifford's big-hearted life?

If you're ready for love, laughter, and a little bit of learning on the leash, why not consider letting Clifford charm his way into your family? Connect with us at adopt@joyfulpets.com to find out more about Clifford and how you can bring him home!
