Hi there, I’m a pretty little 8 lb Norfolk Terrier mix about 2 years old named Clarissa. I was found as a stray dog in Carrizo Springs Texas and quickly taken in by 4 Little Paws Rescue. Now that I’m spayed, vaccinated, and microchipped, I am ready to meet a new forever family.
I am a medium-energy girl with a go-with-the-flow attitude and although I love people, I am a bit shy at first. I’m good with other dogs, but I am mostly focused on being with my people rather than playing with the other foster dogs. I am affectionate, but not overly and I enjoy pets and having my back scratched. I am well-behaved in a home, housebroken, and ok in a crate although I don't need to be kept in one. I’m a good girl, make a wonderful companion, and I get to sleep beside my foster mom each night. My pretty gold medium length semi wirey coat will need to be brushed regularly to keep from tangling and my foster mom says I drive to be pampered and spoiled! I hear many wonderful families on the East Coast would be happy to have a sweet little dog like me, so I can't wait to meet them and get my life started! Inquire about me today and bring me home!
* 4 Little Paws is based in CT. We adopt in many different states along the East Coast. Transport costs are included in the adoption fee. If you are located outside the states we typically adopt to, we have options to get the dog of your dreams to your location.

Please DO NOT apply unless the entire family / household is on board with adopting one of our dogs. We must receive an application for you to move forward in the process. Thoughtful direct emails are welcome and will be answered. However, an application is still a necessary step. We want to make sure we find our dogs a perfect fit with a family so both the dog and the family are happy. We keep our dogs with fosters once we get them out of shelters for a little bit to learn and understand their personalities. Our relationship with families doesn't stop at adoption! We are always available for any follow up questions and are happy to be a resource as you and your new pet settle into a routine.
