About Clyde

Clyde is a 6-month-old hound mix with a knack for learning and a heart ready for snuggles. He and his sister, Bonnie, came into rescue after being likely abandoned near Tampa, but that hasn't dimmed his playful nature. Clyde soaks up attention, and his love for food makes training a breeze—he's already mastered the doggie door and locks in on his people, happy to follow them from room to room. He’s both potty and crate trained, and he’s eager to please with every chance he gets. Clyde does best when he’s not the only dog in the house, so he’ll need a canine companion who can keep up with his puppy energy. He doesn’t get along with cats, but he gets along great with dogs and is comfortable around children. He’s had his first vaccines and will be neutered soon. Born July 24th, Clyde is a Leo—expect boldness, warmth, and a loyal spirit. He’s ready to bring plenty of fun and affection to his forever family. Ready to fall in love?
