Clover

My story

You can be my lucky penny and I can be your four-leaf clover, starting over...  Clover could not have had a more perfect line written for her. She is indeed starting over with a whole new life in Illinois.  When Clover arrived, she was completely shut down, malnourished and so so scared.  But she continues to bloom and grow every day.  Clover is still a shy dog, but she loves people and likes being around them.  Because she is so shy, a house with a confident dog friend or two would be great.  She needs someone to teach her how to "dog" in a house, because we're pretty sure she'd never lived inside before!  Clover isn't comfortable around very small children, because, well, I think we know why...So a house with bigger or no kids would be best.  Clover is going to need a fenced in yard, as she is working on putting on a leash and going outside.  Her shy temperament almost makes her a special needs animal, but we're positive with the right house, she will continue to blossom into a great pet. What kind of dog is she, I hear you ask.. Great question! And one only you'll be able to answer when you adopt her and get a DNA test!  Clover is likely a terrier mix. Maybe chihuahua! (Look at those ears!)  Maybe whippet! (Look at that tail and lean body! She's like Santa's Little Helper, a Simpsons reference.) Or maybe she's part beagle! (Left ear up, right ear down, almost always!  She weighs about 25 pounds and is likely full grown, so she's not very tall. Clover is a Scorpio, lol, she was probably born Oct/Nov of 2024.  Apply to meet this sweet little mutt today!   If you are interested in adopting/meeting this pup , please complete our online adoption application that you can find here: https://www.starfishanimalrescue.com/adopt/dog-adoption-application  .
