Hey CDA Local Buzz Folks, we want you to meet Clyde ❤️. Clyde is a four-year-old German Shepherd mix. Clyde is a gentle giant. Weighing at almost 100 pounds and standing almost six feet on his hind legs, he is still a love bug. Playing ball, going on walks, and doing tricks for treats are his favorite things. If you have plenty of room in your home and your heart, stop by and meet Clyde. He sure would love to be adopted by you 🙏.

Companions Animal Center, formerly Kootenai Humane Society, has cared for and found homes for unwanted animals for over 45 years. Please visit our website companionsanimalcenter.org for more information or stop by Tuesdays through Sundays starting at noon each day. You can give to their causes in many ways, so please CLICK HERE to donate if you would like 🙏.
