My story

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

Hi, I'm Clyde!

I’m a spirited pup who was born in January 2022 in Kern County, California, and eventually made my way to the Wags and Whiskers shelter in Chico. Back then, I was called Silverado! I found a family, but after two months, they returned me with only a brief note saying I was a bit of a “handful.” I soon found a new home, though, and I’ve been with my current family since June 2022.

This family has really taken the time to get to know me, understanding all my quirks. I’m a loyal, cautious, and very cuddly dog who loves getting attention—sometimes, I’ll even nudge my way in to make sure I get it! I can be reserved but also a bit goofy at times. I’m loyal to my people, and I love to be close. Sometimes, maybe *too* close!

Here’s a little more about me: I’m comfortable wearing a harness and leash, and I enjoy going on truck rides or other fun adventures. I know basic commands like sit, down, shake, and “wait” and “okay” when it’s my turn to go through a doorway or eat. I’m crate-trained, house-trained, and I’ve even got my own “quiet time” from 1-4 pm daily.

I’ve got a unique personality that’s been shaped by my breed mix—I'm 48% Husky, with a little Lab, Terrier, and more in the mix. This means I’m a little vocal, especially when something surprises me or when I’m ready for breakfast! I’m affectionate but prefer to have my people all to myself. Sharing with another dog, especially the other dog in my current home, just hasn’t worked out.

I’m happiest outside, especially around water, and I love to chase butterflies or just hang out with my humans. I do fine around cats and chickens, and I get along with kids as long as they’re respectful of my space. I adore the family’s 4-year-old son, though I can be a little shy or occasionally seek extra love from him. I’ve been told I’m not the best fit for babies or toddlers.

I’m also up-to-date on my vaccines, heartworm, and tick prevention. I go to the Durham Vet Clinic, where they say I’m healthy and ready for my next adventure!

A few things to know about me: I get a bit obsessed with reflections and shadows, so teasing me with those isn’t great for me. I’m competitive with a ball but might not always bring it back. And though I’m a work in progress, I promise I’m worth it. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who prefers to be your one-and-only, I could be your perfect match!
