My story

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

Hi there, I’m Carmella. Yep, like the chocolate… and I am a whole lot of chocolate to love. I’m a 4-year-old Chocolate Labrador Retriever mix, spayed, and currently tipping the scales at 80+ pounds of pure sweetness. Don’t worry though, I’ve already signed up for my glow-up era and I’m starting a healthy weight loss plan so I can be my very best self.

I didn’t end up here because I was naughty or difficult. My people loved me, but life changed and they couldn’t care for me anymore. I’m still full of trust, love, and a big, hopeful heart. I’m the kind of girl who believes the best days are still ahead.

Personality-wise, I’m a calm, gentle soul. I’m not the type who needs to run marathons or bounce off the walls. I enjoy leisurely strolls, sniffing all the good smells, and then heading back inside for a nice nap. I’m wonderfully sweet and affectionate, and I get along great with other dogs and even cats. I’m basically the easygoing roommate everyone wants.

I would be perfect for someone who wants a loving companion without the chaos of a super high-energy dog. I’ll happily keep you company while you watch TV, read a book, or work from home. And if you’d like a walking buddy to help me slim down, even better—we can cheer each other on.

If you’re looking for a kind, mellow, chocolatey girl who will love you with her whole heart (and maybe share your couch), I might just be your Carmella. I’m ready to start my next chapter… maybe with you.

Carmella's adoption fee is $275. You can learn more about Carmella and other dogs at Happy Bark by visiting www.happybark.org
