About Cleopatra

Meet Cleopatra! Cleopatra's story is one of rescue, resilience, and second chances. She was pulled from a sewer as a tiny pup by our director, Lisa, alongside her siblings. At just 9 weeks old, she found a loving home where she thrived for six years. Sadly, after her owner passed away, she was surrendered to the Rancho Cucamonga shelter. Thankfully, the shelter staff went the extra mile to reconnect her with us. Knowing Cleopatra deserves another chance, we arranged her return to safety. Now at 6 years old, Cleopatra is a medium-large mixed breed with beautiful blue and amber eyes and a splendid tricolor coat of brown, black, and white. Although she can be shy and reserved initially, she reveals her affectionate side with patience. Once she feels secure, Cleopatra truly enjoys the company of her people. We're still assessing her interactions with other dogs, but Cleopatra has been a joy to have around. After all she has been through, she deserves a loving home where she can settle in comfortably and be treasured for who she is. Click apply to start the adoption process.
