Story
Carter is a sweet, handsome yellow Lab who truly believes he’s a 20-lb lap dog. Once he’s comfortable, he’s incredibly affectionate, snuggly, & loves being close to his people—on his terms. He’s food-motivated & enjoys learning, making training fun & rewarding. Carter is house-trained, potty-trained, & crate-trained, & does well having his own space. He has a nice balance of independence & cuddle time.
Carter is still working on leash manners & can pull, but he’s been making steady progress. He’s also improving with food-guarding behaviors through consistent training & management. He would do best in a home with older, respectful children & calm, well-mannered dogs who respect boundaries. Carter isn’t a fan of pushy dogs & prefers companions who mind their business.
Carter does have a prey drive. He currently lives with a rabbit & a cat—he shows little interest in the bunny but does get excited around the cat. A cat-free home or one experienced with dog-cat management would be ideal. Ideal Home A calm, structured home with patient, dog-savvy adopters who will continue working on leash skills, food behaviors, & boundaries. Carter would thrive as an only dog or with a low-key canine companion. If you’re looking for a loyal, snuggly Lab who just wants a safe place to land, Carter has so much love to give!
