About Clifford (German Shepherd) in Saint Paul, MN 55103

Clifford is waiting for you at Pet Haven Inc. of MN in Saint Paul, MN 55103. Clifford is a happy-go-lucky Shepherd mix puppy with a survivor's spirit and a heart full of love. This handsome little guy is almost 10 pounds already and is expected to grow into a medium-sized dog (26–60 pounds). With his sleek black coat, adorable clumsy lope, and unique gray-and-pink tongue, Cliffie is impossible not to fall in love with!Cliffie had a difficult start to life. He and his littermates were found abandoned under a porch when they were only days old. At just 1.9 pounds, he was the tiny runt of the litter, and there were concerns he might even be blind. Thankfully, his eyes opened, his small corneal ulcer is healing well, and today he's a thriving, healthy, mischievous puppy whose resilience shines through every day.When playtime is over, Cliffie is all about the cuddles. He loves being close to his people and has been wonderfully gentle with children, happily snuggling into their laps and showering them with puppy kisses. Like any young puppy, he's still mouthy with those tiny razor-sharp puppy teeth, but he redirects easily and is eager to learn.Cliffie is just beginning his puppy education. He has started using puppy pads, enjoys relaxing in his open crate with a special toy, and will need continued training as he grows. He's good with other dogs, has not yet been tested with cats, and would do well in just about any loving home that is ready for all the fun, and work, that comes with raising a puppy.One thing you'll quickly learn about Cliffie? He takes mealtime very seriously! The only time he gets vocal is when dinner isn't arriving fast enough. And don't be surprised if you catch him practicing his favorite hobby: "full immersion" drinking, where he happily steps right into the water bowl while taking a drink.If you're looking for a sweet, playful puppy with an incredible story, endless affection, and a personality that will keep you laughing, Clifford is ready to be
