About Cleo

Meet Cleo! This beautiful 2-year-old black mouth cur mix has faced plenty of challenges, but she has emerged strong and full of life. Abandoned and once a mother to eight puppies, she has also battled heartworms. Not only has she survived, but she did so with resilience and style. Cleo is playful, energetic, and has a joyful demeanor. She has already mastered potty training and is the ideal companion for anyone looking for a lively friend. With a penchant for making new friends, she thrives on attention and affection. She would flourish in a home with a secure, fenced yard since she's a talented jumper, capable of clearing a 5-foot fence. After her rough past, she appreciates stability and love and may need some support to boost her confidence when left alone. Older kids would likely be a good match for her, as she gets excited about bicycles and motorcycles and needs a careful handler on walks. Cleo has done well with many dogs but would do best in a home without other canines after a recent adoption return due to compatibility issues. However, she's still open to doggy playdates. This lovely girl has been on the lookout for her forever home for quite some time. If you think you can offer her the stability and love she craves, don't hesitate to apply.
