My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Carol, the lovable and easygoing canine companion you've been searching for! At 5 years old, Carol is in her prime, and she's looking for a forever home where she can enjoy the finer things in life, like lounging by the pool and savoring delicious treats.

A Relaxation Expert: Carol is the epitome of a laid-back dog. She prefers leisurely strolls to intense hikes, and her idea of a perfect day involves lounging by the pool, soaking up the sun's warmth, and dipping her paws into the cool water. If you have a pool or are considering getting one, Carol is your perfect poolside partner.

Treat Aficionado: Carol has a bit of a sweet tooth—or should we say, a sweet paw? She adores treats and can be easily won over with a tasty snack. This makes her an ideal candidate for a training partner; she's eager to learn and motivated by her love for treats.

Solo Star: Carol thrives as the center of attention. She would do best as the only pet in the household, where she can have all your love and affection to herself. This lovely lady deserves to shine brightly in her forever home, and she's more than ready for her chance to do just that.

A Long Wait: Carol has been patiently waiting for her forever family for three long years at the shelter. It's time for her to experience the love, care, and security that only a forever home can provide. She has so much love to give and is ready to share it with the right person or family.

Give Carol a Chance: Carol's heart is full of love, and all she needs now is someone who can give her a chance. If you're ready to open your heart to a sweet, low-energy, and snuggly companion, Carol is waiting to meet you. Don't let her wait any longer—come meet Carol today and give her the loving forever home she so richly deserves. Together, you can make the next chapter of her life the best one yet.

My adoption fee is normally $200.This includes a spay/neuter, up-to-date vaccines, deworming, a microchip, a heartworm test, and, if needed, heartworm treatment.
