About Cliff

Cliff is a clever little character looking for a fresh start after some tough breaks. He’s a Jack Russell Terrier/Dachshund mix, about 7 to 8 years old, who made his way to Amanda Foundation from the South LA Shelter. After surgery to repair his knee, Cliff has bounced back and is ready for his next adventure. He clicks best with other small dogs—hanging out with canine buddies is his idea of a good time. That said, Cliff gets nervous around children, so an adult-only home is a must for him. Cliff does not get along with cats, so a feline-free environment will suit him best. He’s house trained, neutered, and up to date on vaccinations, making him an easy fit for someone seeking a companion who’s past the puppy stage but not short on personality.
