My story

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

Carmel is a 4-year-old sweetheart who’s still learning that the world can be a safe and loving place. He may be a little nervous at first, but once he realizes he’s okay, he attaches hard — following you from room to room, hopping into your lap the second you sit down, and soaking up all the love he can get.

Carmel is friendly and affectionate, with a clingy, loyal nature that makes him an excellent companion for someone who wants a true shadow dog. He’s living peacefully with two dogs and a cat and happily coexists with them all. He’s even tried to initiate play, but when they play back, his shy side comes out — confidence-building will be key for this sweet boy.

Like many dogs still learning the ropes, Carmel has some manners to work on. He can get a little mouthy when he’s excited and sometimes likes to put his paws on the counter. He’s currently working on crate training and may bark a bit at first, but he settles down and naps once he feels secure.

Carmel will thrive with a patient, loving adopter who’s willing to continue helping him build confidence and polish his manners. In return, he’ll give you unwavering devotion, endless cuddles, and a heart that loves hard.

If you’re looking for a loyal best friend who just wants to be close and belong, Carmel might be your guy!

Caramel is about 31 pounds, but should be closer to 35.  We are working on feeding him and getting his weight up a bit.

Caramel is neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccinations, dewormed, and started on monthly flea/heartworm prevention.  His adoption fee is $250 and you can apply to adopt at mpravl.org.



All Mountain Pet Rescue (Asheville) animals are up-to-date on vaccinations, spayed/neutered and micro-chipped before adoption. Contact the foster parent or Mountain Pet Rescue at pets@mpravl.org for more information.

Please note that visual breed identification of companion animals has been proven to be unreliable, so for most of our animals we provide a best guess at predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each of our animals as an individual and do our best to describe and place pets based on personality not breed label.

Mountain Pet Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit tax deductible charity (EIN 82-3039637) located in Asheville, NC.
