About Cleo
Hi I’m Cleo!
I’m an energetic young lady who likes to keep myself busy. I enjoy going on walks, playing with soft toys - especially fetching them, chasing lizards and I really look forward to meal times.
In my down time, I love nothing more than curling up on the big bed, you know the one I mean… the bed you sleep on! I love a good tummy rub too, and I’ll give you lots of kisses if you let me. Oh and I can use a doggy door too.
I can be a bit shy and nervous meeting new people and dogs, but once I get to know them I’m perfectly fine. I’ve lived with other small dogs in my foster home.
I’d love to find my forever home soon, and we could spend our first Christmas together… wouldn’t that be wonderful!
Medical notes
Cleo into care with her three 12 month old sons (Wolfie, Astro and Max) so we know she’s had at least one litter of puppies, but she has now been desexed.
She has also recently had a dental with one tooth extracted.
Cleo does have mild patella luxation, but there is no obvious sign of it in her day to day life and it causes her no issues, so we have opted to not do surgery at this stage, but potential new owners need to be aware that in years to come she may require patella surgery. We recommended keeping her on a joint support supplement as well to help with any arthritic changes associated with joint issues.
Cleo is up to date with her C5 vaccination, she is microchipped, and is also up to date with monthly flea, tick, intestinal worm and heart worm prevention.
