My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Carl is a big goof ball looking to share a couch with his forever family. Carl enjoys playing with other dogs and the company of his people. He is playful but also enjoys basking in the sun. Carl is special needs and will need an owner that understands he can't do stuff that is too rough on his joints. You see, Carl has severe hip dysplasia. We had him examined and out vet thinks that with pain management and some exercise to build muscle Carl has a few more quality years in him. Surgery isn't an option for Carl though. He gets a very small dose of pain medicine once or twice a week depending on how he is doing. The vet thinks that a canine companion would be great for Carl as that will force him to exercise more.
Carl's adoption fee of $40 includes rabies vaccination, distemper/parvo vaccination, deworming and city pet license.
