Looking for a furry ball of energy to brighten up your days? Look no further because Cera is here to fill your home with love, laughter, and endless cuddles! Cera is a large mixed-breed dog with a heart as big as her personality.

~ Cera is looking for a very active home that would possibly be able to enroll her in dog sports or give her a job to keep her mind busy
~ Cera is looking for a home with adults only as she needs to work a lot on her manners
~ She would do best in a house rather than an apartment as she does love to sing
~ We recommend that Cera gets lots of socialization to help her become her best self
~ We did notice that while in our care she has shown signs of having separation anxiety
