My personality

My story

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

Have you met Carmela yet? If not, it’s really surprising that you haven’t, given her outgoing personality. According to her foster, she’s a “lush for attention.”. She adores receiving belly rubs and pets of any kind.

Her foster says she is a total sweetheart who is very eager to please. She’s also quick to learn new things and loves receiving praise…and did we mention pets?!? Yes, she will do anything for a good petting session which is ideal for training!

Our best guess on her breed is some type of cattle dog mix. Her mom looks like a cattle dog and dad looks like a shep/rhodesian mix. So we are guessing she will be around 70 pounds when fully grown. Her brother, Butterscotch, is also available for adoption. They were recently seized by a sheriff in Texas when their owner was evicted from her rental property. She was a hoarder and the dogs and cats on her property were found in a state of absolutely terrible neglect. Luckily that hasn’t impacted sweet Carmela’s personality. So if you are looking for a pup who aims to please, then Carmela is your girl.

Carmela is in foster care in Texas but will be transported to NJ upon adoption.
