My story

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

Meet Carl!

Carl is an adorable young pup looking for his forever home! He is incredibly brave, curious, and smart, and he loves to play and explore. Carl is also funny and gentle -- really just an all-around great pup!

Despite his very sweet and gentle nature, Carl actually came to us from a situation of some serious neglect. While he's on the mend and has been getting properly fattened up, he's still learning what it means to be a loved dog. We're in awe of this sweet boy who still finds it in his heart to love all of us humans around him! Little Carl is very people-oriented and quick to please. This boy LOVES attention and has so much love and affection to give. You'll be entertained for days with his goofy little puppy antics. He's happy to do some tricks for you and will sit on command so quickly if you give him some treats! But be warned, this sweet boy can be a little sharky with the snacks. We can't really blame him when food used to be so scarce and he's still so young. He could definitely benefit from some basic training, but luckily for us all Carl is such a good boy and so quick to please, that he'll have it all down in no time!! Carl's ideal family would be able to give him lots of love, attention, and treats - did we mention lots and lots of treats!?! Carl is still a baby, so he'll need lots of attention, exercise, and training as he grows, but you'll be rewarded with growing up together with the most loyal forever companion - and really, what more could you ask for!

If you're interested in meeting this little bundle of joy, come visit the shelter or send an email to adoptpetersburg@gmail.com and include "Carl" in the subject line.
