Clarita

Clarita is an adoptable female German Shepherd looking for a home at BARC Animal Shelter in Houston, Texas. She is still very young and medium in size. She is listed on the shelter's euthanasia list, listed due to lack of space, and that date has now passed. Shelters often move these dates, so Clarita may still be waiting. The shelter can confirm.

She was reportedly clipped by a car before entering BARC but was not limping. She was prescribed Carprofen for five days and has since been spayed. Heartworm status: Not documented Vaccinated and dewormed Spayed 9/2/26 Previously prescribed Carprofen after reported car incident ⸻ 🐾BEHAVIOR NOTES: Clarita is a young, friendly puppy who enjoys attention from people. Staff have observed her approaching with a soft expression, wagging tail, perked ears, and a sweet, curious head tilt. She enjoys treats and has shown she can settle quietly when given a calm, covered space. Clarita becomes very interested when other dogs pass her kennel, so she will need patient guidance and careful management around other dogs. With her young age, she deserves the opportunity to learn, decompress, and show her people-friendly side in a more suitable environment.
