In the shelter’s words

Meet Cleo — Your New Best Friend and Forever Shadow! ❤️ Say hello to beautiful Cleo, an absolutely darling black-and-tan dachshund with soulful brown eyes, an irresistible little face, and a heart full of love! At approximately 1½ years old and 18 pounds, Cleo is what we affectionately call a tweenie — that wonderful size right between a miniature and a standard dachshund. And this little girl is an absolute sweetheart! Cleo has a wonderfully sweet, affectionate, and easygoing temperament. She adores people of all ages, children and adults alike, and seems to believe that everyone she meets is a friend she hasn't had the pleasure of cuddling with yet! Speaking of cuddling, Cleo is a champion snuggler. She's happiest being close to her people, and if you're looking for a devoted little companion who wants to be wherever you are, you've found your girl. Cleo is going to be someone's very own four-legged shadow! Whether you're relaxing on the sofa, moving from room to room, or settling in for the evening, you can expect Cleo to be right there beside you. But don't let her love of cuddles fool you! Beneath that sweet exterior is a spirited young dachshund who's just waiting for her chance to run, explore, and enjoy life at full speed. Once her veterinarian gives her the all-clear, we have a feeling this little lady is going to have a wonderful time stretching those short legs and showing off her playful side! Cleo was recently spayed and is currently recovering from surgery, so she's taking things easy for now and enjoying some extra TLC. ❤️ Cleo is currently being fostered in Calabasas, California. With her loving personality, affectionate nature, and enthusiasm for everyone she meets, Cleo is going to make one very lucky family an incredibly devoted companion. Cleo isn't quite ready for adoption just yet! We're giving her the time she needs to fully recover and settle into foster care. But don't worry — we'll let everyone know as soon as this beautiful girl is ready to begin her search for a forever home! For now, please join us in welcoming sweet Cleo to the DRLA family! ❤️
