Story
Cleo is a laid-back, small senior gal who adores people and greets visitors with extra warmth. She's easygoing, unfazed by anything, and prefers ear rubs and lounging on the couch, rather than learning new tricks. Though she's comfortable around other dogs, she often ignores them during walks, finding more interest in observing birds, squirrels, and bunnies. On a recent playdate with two dogs, she was more fascinated by sniffing and watching them play rather than joining in. Cleo also gets along wonderfully with cats. She also enjoy being with older children.Her perfect day involves soaking up the sun outdoors. She walks beautifully on a leash and enjoys people-watching. A car ride is a delightful bonus for her, where she loves sitting on her bed in the front seat, occasionally peeking out the window before resting and watching her foster drive. At home, there's no need for a crate since she has impeccable manners and respects the home when left alone. Since being at her foster home, she's never chewed on anything, not even a sock, and has show no interest in chew toys. House trained from the start, Cleo quickly adapted to her foster's home routine. She is food motivated and loves her wet meals. Being a quiet and patient gal, her foster has only heard her bark a few times. She's flexible and loves to naps on her bed, under the table or on the couch. Cleo is perfectly content when left alone, and her little tail wags with joy when you return, guaranteed to brighten your day.Cleo is a spirited soul, eager to embrace life to the fullest despite her mammary cancer. Her greatest wish is to share her joy with someone special. A single-level home would be perfect for her. If you're ready to welcome a loyal and loving companion who will light up your days, Cleo is excitedly waiting for you. Could you be the one to make her dreams come true?Interested in adopting this dog?
