Cleopatra’s Story

June 2026 Update!

Cleo has been working on her “good girl skills” and it SHOWS. Her foster has told us she has been working on her patience on leash walks and playing nicely with other dogs. She is even trying out daycare soon! In fact, she has done so well we are officially awarding her the title of dog friendly! Go Cleo!

Cleo loves to play fetch or chase a ball, but her foster says she has one activity that is her favorite of all: rolling. She will roll and slide down hills, and even climb up onto furniture and laps just so she can roll off. But when Cleo crashes, she crashes hard too. Her foster has told us her snoring can even drown out the TV!

Cleo is continuing to work on her daily structured leash walks to help get over her fear of cars and big trucks. We think she would do best in a quiet home with minimal traffic around, or with a family willing to continue to work with her to get over her fears. We just know that the perfect home for Cleo is out there, and we want to find someone who thinks her personality is as hilarious and charming as we do!

This bulldog mix has a big heart and an even bigger story. Cleopatra was found alone after recently having puppies, waiting in the same spot day after day, hoping someone would come back for her. A kind family finally stepped in, got her safe, and now she’s ready for a new beginning.

Cleopatra is a sweetheart with expressive dark markings around her eyes that look just like Cleopatra’s iconic eyeliner—hence her royal name! With the adorable face of a Boxer and the compact, sturdy body of a French Bulldog, she’s a one-of-a-kind beauty who turns heads everywhere she goes.

🌙 Professional Napper & Champion Snorer

Cleo loves a good nap. Once she settles in, she’ll snore loud enough to make you laugh out loud. It’s truly part of her charm!

🏡 Kennel-Comfort Queen

She LOVES her kennel—it's her safe, cozy space—and she’s incredibly well-behaved in it. A predictable routine helps her feel confident and happy, and she thrives when she knows what to expect.

🧠 Smart, Trainable & Food-Motivated

Cleo is a clever girl who listens beautifully. If she’s ever corrected for chewing something she shouldn’t, she understands right away and won’t touch it again. She adores treats and will happily work for them!

🧸 Play Style: Silly Baby Panda

She has a spunky, quirky personality and loves to roll around on her back like a wiggly baby panda. She enjoys toys and will keep you entertained with her goofy antics.

❤️ Loyal to Her Person

Cleo bonds deeply. She wants to stay close to her human whenever she can, and she will be your devoted shadow in the sweetest way.

🚧 A Few Needs to Help Her Thrive

Cleo is still gaining confidence around heavy car and foot traffic, so she’d love a quiet neighborhood or a fenced yard where she can feel safe. With consistent practice, she’s shown she can overcome her fears and would thrive with a family willing to keep building her confidence around busy environments.

🏠 The Perfect Home For Cleo

Cleo will shine in a home where:

✔ She has a solid fence and a calmer environment

✔ Her person appreciates routines, snuggles, and a goofy, loyal best friend

✔ Treats are plentiful and naps are respected

If you’re looking for a funny, affectionate, intelligent companion who will reward your love with fierce loyalty and adorable snores, Cleopatra is your girl.

She’s ready to meet the person who will help her feel safe, structure her world, and let her quirky personality sparkle.

She has so much love to give and is ready for her forever family. Could that be you?
