Meet CLARISSA! Clarissa was born in the rescue on January 5th to Lady, a mixed-Pyrenees rescue from Texas. According to DNA results from one of her litter mates, Clarissa is mostly a mix of Great Pyrenees, Rhodesian Ridgeback, and American Staffordshire Terrier. Clarissa is being fostered with her sister Cecille in Seattle, WA. Clarissa is the more independent pup and is happy to keep herself busy with a chew toy in her crate. She can be a bit timid at first, but don’t let that fool you - she’s very observant and once she’s taken in her surroundings, she’s super quick to learn new things! So far, she has been great with house training, and sleeps comfily in her crate at night. She’s very bright and is learning to “sit” and “look at me” so that she can go for walks on the leash, and not mistake the leash for a toy. She is curious around chickens and robotic vacuum cleaners, but so far knows to approach them gently and quietly. Clarissa is ready to find a forever home where she can grow and learn and be a part of a family.
