Meet Clara Belle

⭐️Clara Belle needs some SHARES!! She is about 5 months old. When dogs hit 6 months old, they become much harder to find homes for. The 6-12 month age range is not popular among adopters. PLEASE share to help her find a home! She’s in New England. She is a little shy but sweet and seems like a smart pup. She has lived with cats and kids and does fine with both, but we would be hesitant to place her in a home with cats. Although she is fine with them now, I fear that as she grows, her herding instinct (she has some Australian Cattle dog in her) may be too much for cats to tolerate. She should go to a home with older kids, for the same reason. If she develops the tendency to herd, this can be hard for toddler age kids to understand and can viewed as "biting." She is a medium to high energy pup. She is on the go making it hard to get good pictures She sleeps most of the night but wakes up a few times. She loves to play and absolutely adores Nova (her Great Dane foster sister). She weighs maybe 20-25 pounds and you would think she was the same size as Nova with the way they play. She barks a little bit. She has nipped a few times when she is getting excited and playing. Again, she’s not being mean, but it’s that herding instinct. She will cuddle when she is ready to settle in for the night. She is making progress with learning to walk on a leash. She is also working on house training, she can go about 6 hours alone at home before having an accident (her foster mom works long hours some days). She’s a sweet girl with a dash of sass! Clara Belle needs a home with a family who is committed to giving her plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. She is a very beautiful little girl and has great potential in the right home. Her story of how she came into rescue- She was being given away in a parking with the caption "I'm feeding her one last meal. If no one takes her by the time she's finished, I'm dumping her somewhere because she's not going home with me." Turns out the guy is a backyard breeder and his female got out and came back pregnant with mixed breed puppies. He was mad that he couldn't sell the puppies and make some quick money. Thankfully a Good Samaritan took her in. She is spayed, UTD on age appropriate vaccines, microchipped, and on flea/tick and heartworm prevention. In New England.
