ADOPTION DATE 06-04-14 – Clarence has transitioned incredibly well once he had a secure environment where he knew he’d not ever be abandoned. He would be happy to start the day with an early morning walk to take in all the wonderful scents that dogs like to sniff. With the energy level of a young dog, he would be a delightful walking or jogging buddy. He loves to be petted, and with his sleek and lustrous black coat and a gorgeous plume of a tail.
Like so many of the rescue dogs that are found, Clarence, his mother and 4 other siblings were found dumped on a rural road near the woods the first week of March. They looked to have been surviving on their own for a week or more. The pups were thought to be about 8-9 wks old when they were found by a rescue angel. Their health was already starting to take a toll on their little bodies, they were wormy and emaciated. They are all not in the loving home and care of her rescuer.
Clarence and his siblings are already showing the signs of their breed. Her foster dad has noticed that she is “just a real good dog”. Even at this young age, they listen and come when they are called and their foster family feels that they are really special dogs that were meant to be saved. Unlike most puppies, they told us that Clarence and his siblings are relatively calm in comparison to other puppy litters. Recently they have been around little children and true to their breed, are just tremendously loving and gentle with them.
Clarence loves to run and play with his siblings and he warmed up to her foster mom rather quickly. She was slightly cautious at first but warmed up after a pet and an ear scratching She gets lots of play time with her with her siblings and follows behind our ATV in the evenings. He gets along with her siblings and does well with his foster brothers and sisters dogs. He does great with kids and has been around kids quite often. He might be a large dog; her mother is about an 80lbs dog.
If you have an urge to have an instant best friend that is always glad to see you and easily maintained, you really should give this wonderful boy a look. Clarence just needs someone who will love him and give him the attention he deserves. Do you have room in your heart for a new best friend? Because Clarence wants nothing more than to share his heart with someone who can appreciate it for what it truly is: SPECIAL BEYOND OUR ABILITY TO DESCRIBE IN WORDS
