Meet Clancy!
Clancy is a 2.5-year-old, 40 lb Schipperke/Shiba Inu mix who came to us as a stray from an overcrowded shelter. This handsome guy is incredibly smart, full of personality, and looking for an active, experienced home that understands working-breed-type dogs and all the energy and intelligence that comes with them.
Clancy is sweet, goofy, playful, and deeply loving with his people. He’s a high-energy boy who thrives when he has structure, exercise, mental stimulation, and a strong bond with his handler. He’s eager to please, very treat motivated, and the kind of dog who truly enjoys learning and engaging with his humans.
He does well with other dogs and would love another dog in the home to play with and help him continue building social skills. Clancy can be vocal and reactive when first meeting dogs on leash, but much of it is excitement and overstimulation rather than aggression — he’s very much an “all bark” kind of guy. Once introductions are handled properly, he enjoys running around and being part of the pack.
Because Clancy tends to mirror the energy around him, he would do best with a calm, confident, well-adjusted dog companion who can help model balanced behavior for him. If another dog comes in loud and chaotic, Clancy is likely to match that energy. With grounded leadership and proper introductions, he settles in just fine.
Clancy is looking for a confident, experienced adopter who understands how important exercise, structure, continued socialization, and mental enrichment are for intelligent, active dogs like him. He would love an adventurous home that will keep him engaged, active, and included in daily life.
He would do best in a home without cats.
After spending time in the shelter environment, Clancy is more than ready for a home where he can decompress, settle into a routine, and fully let his loving, goofy personality shine.
If you’re looking for a smart, entertaining, high-energy companion who will keep you laughing and always ready for adventure, Clancy might just be your perfect match!
Clancy is UTD on vaccinations, microchipped, and neutered. His adoption fee is $500.
