Her perfect home would be one where she had someone who loves to get kisses and loves to scratch a belly.

Klara is a playful girl and would do well with another playful dog or someone who could play with her expend some energy.

She would love to be in a home where people are home most of the time. She is not a fan of being left alone, but is SO much better. She has discovered lick mats, doggie puzzles, has a safe crate of her own and settles herself down pretty quickly. We are very proud of the progress she has made.

Teaching her tricks will build her confidence and that helps her mature also (we are working on that now and it's very good for her).

Klara is a snuggly and sweet girl and we know that the right family is out there for her.

Adopting a dog in West Palm Beach

Most rescues ask you to fill in an application, meet the dog, and pay an adoption fee that usually covers spaying or neutering, vaccinations and a microchip. Many are foster-based, so you'll often meet your dog in a volunteer's home rather than a shelter.

Senior dogs are often the calmest companions and the slowest to find homes. If you'd like a settled, affectionate dog, ask the rescues about their older residents.

Puppies go quickly, so if you've fallen for one, contact the rescue soon. Ask how big they're expected to grow, and plan for plenty of house-training and training in the first few months.
