Clarice's Story
Meet Clarice!<br/><br/>Estimated DOB: 9/15/25<br/>Female<br/>Retriever mix <br/><br/>The Cloud-Soft Snuggler With a Storybook Name<br/><br/>Clara wasn’t always Clara. She first arrived as Clarice, but when her transport volunteer started calling her Clara — and the only sweater left at Aldi happened to be a Nutcracker sweater — well, fate stepped in. Clarice the Reindeer became Clara the Sweetheart, and it fits her perfectly.<br/><br/>Clara has cloud-like fur and an even softer personality. She’s gentle, calm, and the kind of pup who melts into your arms the moment you pick her up. She enjoys playing with her foster brother, but truthfully? Clara is a snuggler at heart. She wants the lap. She wants the cuddles. She wants to be held like a baby and adored like one too.<br/><br/>She has lovely manners for such a young pup and would make an incredible companion for someone wanting a close, bonded relationship. Whether she’ll grow into a hiking buddy or a dog-park regular is still to be seen — but one thing is already certain: she loves her humans. She wants to curl up in your lap, sleep by your side, and stay near the people who make her feel safe.<br/><br/>If you’re looking for a loyal, gentle, endlessly sweet companion who just wants to love and be loved, Clara is ready to be your little shadow. <br/><br/>Adopters will be provided a voucher to cover the cost of spay/neuter at a local participating vet when age appropriate. <br/><br/>Interested in adopting? Submit an adoption application on our website rescuedrascalsil.org! <br/><br/>We will review your application at our earliest convenience. If your application is selected, we will contact you for a phone interview. From there, we’d schedule a meet and greet with the dog to make sure it is a great fit for adoption for the whole family and any other dogs in your home.<br/><br/>Questions about adoption?
