My name is
Claus!

Meet Claus, the 8-pound 8 week old bundle of joy who's equal parts playful and adorable! This silly little guy is a Jack Russell Terrier and Chihuahua mix, and he's got a personality that's just as big as his heart. Claus is a curious, fun-loving puppy who’s always ready for an adventure—whether it's zooming around the yard or snuggling up on the couch for a nap. He’s got a heart full of love and a tail that wags like there's no tomorrow. With his sweet nature and goofy antics, he’ll have you laughing and smiling every day.

Claus is up to date on all his age-appropriate vaccinations, but his new family will need to keep up with his schedule to keep him healthy and happy. He's looking for a forever home where he can bring his joy and silliness to a family ready for a little fun and a lot of love. If you think you could be Claus' perfect match, don’t wait—apply to adopt him today at (https://peace4paws.org/adoption-application). He can't wait to meet you!
