Gentle, playful, and full of heart, Cliff forms trusting bonds easily. He still carries the spark and curiosity of a puppy while being at a perfect age to grow, learn, and thrive. Agile, affectionate, and eager to be part of a team, Cliff will shine in a home that values both activity and companionship.<br/><br/>Ideal Home<br/><br/>Cliff will thrive with:<br/><br/><br/> <br/> An active person or family<br/> <br/> <br/> A home that understands the needs of a young dog: patience, consistency, engagement, and love<br/>He's ready to join in on family activities—playing with kids and dogs, going for daily walks, hitting local trails, and exploring the world together.<br/> <br/><br/><br/>Rescue Story<br/><br/>Cliff was abandoned as a tiny 3-month-old puppy at a vet school in Guadalajara, Mexico. A rescue program stepped in to save him and his siblings (Hershey and Sandy), giving them the chance they deserved. He was then welcomed into a foster program run by dedicated veterinary students who provided the care and structure needed for him to grow strong and adoptable.<br/><br/>Due to the overwhelming number of animals in need, Cliff and his siblings were entrusted to Northwest Wag Rescue's partners in Guadalajara to help them find their forever homes. His sibling Sandy, is also available for adoption.<br/><br/> Location: Mexico (waiting for a trial commitment)<br/> Adoption Fee: $600<br/> Apply at: www.northwestwagrescue.org
