About Clifford

Clifford is a sweet one-year-old Coonhound mix, rescued from a cruelty case with his brother. Despite their tough past, both dogs are affectionate and easy-going. Clifford loves to be around older, sturdy kids since he’s active and might unintentionally knock down younger ones. He would thrive best in a home with a canine companion, as he enjoys the company of other dogs. While we’re unsure about how he interacts with cats, his friendly nature suggests he might adapt well. Clifford is already crate-trained and neutered, with up-to-date vaccinations. He still needs some help with house training, as he’s currently in a kennel. He’s heartworm negative and ready for his new journey. Are you ready to give him that loving home he deserves?
