My story

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

Carter is a lovable 2-year-old hound mix with a big heart and a playful spirit. He’s incredibly sweet, full of energy, and always ready for fun—especially if treats or toys are involved! Carter loves spending time with his people and enjoys every bit of attention he gets.

He would do best as the only pet in the home, where he can soak up all the love for himself. Carter is getting back into the groove of being house-trained and will continue to thrive with a consistent routine and patient guidance. With his happy personality and affectionate nature, Carter is ready to bring lots of joy to a home that’s looking for a loyal, fun-loving companion.
