Cléo is a deeply endearing dog who is patiently waiting for a gentle and understanding family. She is sensitive and fearful, and needs time to build trust-but once she feels safe, she becomes incredibly affectionate and loving. Cléo will thrive in a calm home with adopters who are willing to move at her pace and respect her boundaries. She is already house-trained and enjoys several short daily walks adapted to her weight, as well as mental enrichment and chewing activities that help ease her stress. Her biggest challenges are being left alone, being handled, and adapting to new environments, all of which can cause her anxiety. With a compassionate approach, the use of recommended protocols, and guidance from a certified dog trainer, Cléo has great potential to flourish. She needs a home where patience and respect lead the way, and where every small step forward is celebrated. Giving Cléo a chance means welcoming a vulnerable soul with a tremendous capacity for love.
