About

Meet Clyde

Clyde is a tiny but mightly little guy found wandering the streets of Anne Arundal county dirty and matted.  The shelter took him in, got him cleaned up, and found an adorable Shih Tzu under all that matting.  Clyde is now recovering from his ordeal with a devoted foster who is helping him learn that he is safe and can relax.  Clyde is 4 years old and 15 pounds.He likes to be around a person he trusts, and develops trust pretty quickly - especially if you have treats.  However he needs to get to know people on his own terms - he doesn't like people approaching him but prefers to do the approaching.  Once he knows you, Clyde loves snuggling, rolling over, getting belly rubs, and sleeping in bed with his human.  He is completely housetrained, no accidents at all. He takes treats very gently and shows no food or toy aggression. His foster can even take food out of his bowl and hand feed him with no problems. He has been completely submissive with having his face and paws washed as well.  He walks easily on the leash and loves going for walks.  At his fosters he loves to sit in the window seat and watch the world go by. Clyde has been friendly to every dog he meets but especially likes big ones. He had quite an ordeal being lost for who knows how long, and deserves a home where he will get the peace and security he deserves.  Clyde has some behavior issues that will require consistent training.  He will need a dog-experienced, adult-only adopter(s) who will work on training with him. Cyde brings joy every day as he does zoomies around the yard, prances on his walks, and snuggles into your lap at night.  Don't you want this adorable snuggle bug in your life?
