About Clara Belle

Clara and Belle are a pair of precious, fluffy sisters who are the spitting image of two tiny teddy bears that have come to life! These chow/rat terrier mixes are soft, expressive, and always seem to have the inside scoop on the best gossip. Clara is the outgoing one, always ready with a smile and a wiggle, convinced everyone she meets is a potential best friend. Belle is a bit more reserved initially, observing like a tiny lady at brunch, but once she warms up, she reveals the same goofy smile and loving personality, with an equally strong desire for cuddles.

These sweet girls are friendly with dogs, cats, and people, and would absolutely thrive in a home with another playful and confident dog. They are currently about five weeks old and are learning all the important puppy things, like routines, confidence, toys, potty training, and how to avoid sitting in their water bowls. Their mama weighs around 25–30 pounds, so Clara and Belle are expected to stay on the smaller side as adults, just the right size to bring joy without taking over the couch. They have a "storybook puppy" charm that makes them seem almost unreal, as if they were knitted from clouds and good intentions. They are sure to follow you around the house in the mornings and snuggle up with you in the evenings, making it feel like they've always been home. While they are sisters, they are available for adoption separately.

Ideal Home

Clara and Belle would absolutely thrive in homes with another playful, confident dog. We recommend homes with children 10 years and over to ensure the best fit for both the pets and families involved.

Ongoing Health

No specific health conditions are mentioned in the listing.

Training & Support

These puppies are still learning all the normal puppy things, including routines, confidence, toys, and potty training. They may also need guidance on how to stop certain behaviors, like sitting directly in their water bowls. Remember, every rescue pup is a work in progress, and showing up for them every day is key to helping them bloom into the best versions of themselves.
