Meet Clarabelle – A Sweet Girl Discovering the Joys of Home Life
Clarabelle is a former puppy mill momma who is now embracing her new chapter and learning what it means to simply be a loved dog. She is sweet, gentle, and easy-going, with a calm presence that makes her a wonderful companion.
Clarabelle enjoys spending time outdoors and loves to run around the yard — even in cold weather or snow! Because she truly enjoys her outdoor time, a securely fenced yard is required. She gets along well with other dogs and would be happy sharing her home with a canine companion. Clarabelle requires a home with a companion dog of similar size/energy.
Inside the home, Clarabelle is quiet and peaceful. She loves relaxing near her people, often choosing a cozy spot close by wherever you are. Mealtime and treats are some of her favorite parts of the day, and she’s not picky at all, happily eating twice daily.
Clarabelle is continuing to make progress with her house-training and does well with a consistent routine. She’s a gentle, even-tempered girl who does well in the car, enjoys toys, and has a soft, affectionate nature. While she can be a bit shy at first, she warms up nicely and becomes a loving presence in the home.
✨ The best home for Clarabelle is one that will offer patience, consistency, and kindness as she continues to grow and build confidence. A calm household with older, respectful children would be a great fit for her.
Clarabelle’s adoption donation is $525, and she is being fostered in Athens Ohio area. She is fully vetted and ready for her forever home — she has been spayed, microchipped, and is up to date on her vaccines, including rabies, distemper/parvo, bivalent canine influenza, and Bordetella. Clarabelle has tested negative for heartworm and has been started on heartworm and flea/tick prevention, and she has also had a dental cleaning.
Clarabelle is ready to leave her past behind and begin the life she deserves — full of comfort, security, and love.
PLEASE NOTE: If you are viewing this biography on a website other than the Ohio Fuzzy Pawz website like Petfinder, Adopt-a-Pet, or another search engine (the OFP website is www.ohiofuzzypawz.com), not all information transfers to partner websites in some instances. If you go to the individual webpage of our dogs , you will be able to get more information each dog.
Visual breed identification in dogs can be unreliable so, in many cases, we are only guessing at the predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label.
The adoption process has several steps involved. Please review prior to submitting an application. Our adoption process is detailed here: http://www.ohiofuzzypawz.com/info/adoption
Our volunteers work very diligently to process each application and we try to ensure that we are making the best match possible for each dog. We do not schedule meetings with dogs until an application has been approved. It can take up to a few weeks to process an application or as little time as a few days, from the time you submit an application, please be prepared to adopt as we cannot hold dogs.
Some dogs may have special requirements (for example, medications, a fence) -- if you apply for a dog, please be sure to read over the biography completely to see if there are any special needs and if you're home would be suitable. If we indicate on the dog's biography that a fence is required, this means your home must have a physical fence. Other dogs may require a "strong vet reference" which indicates that we are looking for a home that has a documented history of veterinary care with previous pets.
The first step in our process is to submit an online adoption application at www.ohiofuzzypawz.com/forms. The application MUST include the personal references and veterinary, grooming, and landlord references (if applicable) and their respective contact information. If you do not include the references and the contact information, your application will be delayed as it CANNOT be processed. Once the references have been successfully completed, a home visit is then scheduled when a rescue representative can meet all members of the family or residents of the home. No application is approved prior to the home visit being done. At that point, the Directors will discuss any and all applications on a foster dog and make a selection--in many cases, there are multiple applications for each dog, so please be understanding that our only priority is the successful placement of each of our foster dogs.
We do adopt out of state to outstanding applicants, however, our process requires a home visit, so out of state adoptions can take longer. We do not ship our dogs, adopters should be prepared to pick up the dog in Central Ohio.
