My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

 Meet Cleo
This adorable 2-year-old, 15-lb spayed chihuahua mix is full of love to share!! With her perky and loving personality, Cleo is ready to charm her way straight into your heart. 

She’s a social, affectionate little lady who loves people and can’t wait to experience all the good things life has to offer — cozy laps, tasty treats, and endless love.

Right now, Cleo is waiting in a shelter in Puerto Rico, but she’s ready to fly to Virginia on November 15th — all she needs is a foster or adopter to give her that chance! 

Let’s help this sweet girl find the happy ending she deserves. Could Cleo be your new best friend?
