Little Clover was only about five months old when she arrived at Misty and Patrick’s home, but this clever little canine had already mastered the fine art of making friends and influencing people (and pups.) In addition to her parents, Clover’s new family and group of best friends forever includes a couple of terrific two-legged siblings and an adorable seven-year-old Lab sister. “I can’t imagine how life could be much better, but I’ve heard there are some exciting excursions in store this summer, ” Clover woofed waggishly, when asked if she’d like to comment for this story.
Clover’s new family updated us on life with their newest girl:
We have been a lab loving family for about 20 years. We lost our black lab Annie in March of 2023 and our Zeffie girl was quite lonely. Zeffie is a SHLR alum that we adopted in 2019. She has difficulty hearing because of chronic ear infections that led to one of her ear canals being surgically removed. We knew to bring a new companion into our life we had to pick a lab that would be adaptable to learning to communicate with Zeffie.
When we saw the pictures of Clover online we felt like she was the right fit for our family. Clover is young and energetic which has brought Zeffie’s spark for life back. Clover is so smart and learned how to use the doggie door on the first day we brought her home. Clover is such a fast learner during our training sessions and wants to please her family. She is a really good puppy and is a friend to everyone that she meets.
Our kids adore Clover and enjoy playing tug, fetch, taking her for walks and helping her learn new tricks. We are so happy this that she has come into our lives and can’t wait for the camping and hiking adventures that we have planned this summer.
Many thanks to Penny for fostering Clover!
