About Clay

Meet Clay, your potential new adventure buddy! This lively one-year-old Labrador Retriever has a big heart and an even bigger personality. Found as a stray, Clay has quickly shown his affectionate side, becoming quite the charm at the shelter. He thrives in the company of people and is full of energy, making him perfect for an active family. Clay does well with larger dogs, but his exuberance might be too much for some. So, it's a good idea to arrange meet-and-greets with potential canine siblings. While he enjoys snuggling on the couch, he isn’t keen on sharing space with smaller pets. Clay is currently in foster care and needs some leash training to help him on his walks. He takes medication for allergies and anxiety, which he handles well. If you're ready for a loving companion who brings joy and plenty of tail wags, Clay is waiting for you! What are you waiting for? Apply today!
