About Claude

Claude is a charming 4-year-old mixed breed pup who was found wandering alone by Animal Control. This lovable boy has a friendly demeanor and gets along well with both dogs and children, making him a great family companion. Although he previously battled heartworms, he has completed his treatment and is now heartworm negative—this hasn’t affected his life expectancy, but transparency is important for potential adopters. Claude’s personality shines through with his joyful, adventurous spirit; he often enjoys lounging on top of his dog house, reminiscent of Snoopy. It's noteworthy that he does not get along with cats, so a feline-free home would suit him best. This dog is currently in Mississippi and will be transported to his new home after adoption. The adoption fee of $350 covers his spay, vaccinations, and transport costs. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and let's get started.
