Ohhhh, Carrie, this girl is an absolute CHARACTER!

Carrie was one of 9 puppies dumped in front of the elementary school, and despite the rough way her little life started, she has turned into one of the most fun, happy, personality-filled pups at our shelter.

She is SO much fun. She’s playful, goofy, loving, curious, and has enough personality for three dogs.

Out of all of our little tan puppies, Carrie has something that makes her easy to spot: her coat is much thicker and even has a little curl to it! She’s absolutely adorable.

And if I had to compare her personality to another breed, I would say she gives me Golden Retriever vibes.

Happy. Silly. Friendly. Playful. Full of life. And just genuinely excited to be wherever the people are.

Carrie didn't choose to be dumped.

She didn't choose to start her life at a shelter.

But she absolutely deserves a different next chapter in her story.

She deserves a family to grow up with.
A yard to run and play in.
Toys scattered across the floor.
Someone to laugh at all of her goofy little antics.
And most importantly, a place where she knows she is home forever.

If you’re looking for a puppy who is going to keep you laughing and fill your home with personality, come meet Carrie.

She just might be the missing piece your family didn't know it needed.
