Cliffy

Cliffy never goes on a walk or a car ride without his emotional support spiky ball. He carries it the whole way and even keeps it close when he sleeps. And don't think you can part him from it for one measly treat! While he is very food motivated, he's done the math: this is the Bay Area, so the going rate to drop the ball is at least 3-4 treats. He's a character, and negotiating with him is half the fun.

Cliffy is great with people, kids of all ages included, and he especially LOVES men! The joke is that he's a "dude's dog." He likes women too, though, which would make him an excellent wingdog for anyone who could use a charming icebreaker at the other end of the leash. Are you looking for that special someone to be in matching pajamas with on Christmas Day? Cliffy is here to help you! And don't forget a matching set of pajamas and an ugly Christmas sweater for him too, because this guy looks great sporting some dogwear.

Cliffy is eager to go on his daily walks and is also great in the car for adventures farther away from home. The car is one of his favorite places to be, and he will try to convince you to take the car to go places rather than walk there. In fact, he will sometimes try to convince you to steal someone else's car, just so he doesn't have to walk the whole way.

At home, Cliffy has impeccable manners. While he's a strong chewer who adores his spiky ball and tasty chews, he doesn't destroy anything in the house. He is not a big barker, though if other dogs in the house start up, he will join the choir, even when he doesn't know what the song is about. He loves cuddling up next to his humans and being petted for as long as they are willing. He is also okay being left home alone for several hours and will stay in his crate even if the door is left open. Cliffy loves his crate, so much so, in fact, that after a walk he lets himself in and sometimes closes the door behind him. Because, manners!

Cliffy currently lives with two female dogs, and could share his home with a well-matched female dog. If you have a spot on the couch, a spiky ball subscription, and a healthy treat budget for ball negotiations, Cliffy would love to meet you.
