She was portrayed by Wendie Malick.
Role in the film
Clara is the current employer of Channing Walsh, the daughter of the film's main human protagonist, Nolan Walsh (who also used to work for her). When we first meet her, she is chastising Channing for bringing Stripes to the race track, which causes the latter to instantly dislike her. Later on, she bullies Channing again, but this time, Nolan calls her out on it. Clara then volunteers Stripes to compete in the Kentucky Open.
After Stripes manages to win the race, a dissatisfied Clara is further humiliated when Goose the Pelican defecates on her hat in front of the press.
