Cletus's Story

Cletus comes off a little shy at first. When he first came to his foster parents, he would get very vocal when he was nervous. He was unsure of new people and would get overwhelmed when the other dogs would play. After a little while he settled into life and made friends with the regular people and dogs who came to visit. He has figured out that he can ignore the other dogs at play when he doesn’t feel like it and how to initiate play when he does! He can be very playful, especially when he gets to take off running in the yard and one of his buddies wants to play chase. He can be dog selective and would do best in a home with another passive dog. He is also pretty good at napping and loves nothing more than to sit at his foster Mom's feet while she works. He will make a great companion and thrive in a loving home.
