Carl

Meet Carl, the pup with a love worth earning! <br/><br/>Carl is a 7 month old Lab mix with a gentle heart and so much love waiting to shine. He came from a hoarding situation, so he missed out on many of the positive experiences that help puppies learn the world is a safe place. Because of that, new people can be intimidating at first, and Carl will be unsure when you first meet him. But there's a whole lot more to this sweet boy than his timid first impression.<br/><br/>Once Carl realizes he's safe, you get to see the real him. His tail starts wagging, he breaks into the cutest happy little hops, and he soaks up every bit of affection you have to give. He absolutely loves being around people he trusts, and when Carl decides you're his person, he gives you his whole heart. That special bond is what makes getting to know Carl so incredibly rewarding.<br/><br/>And when Carl is comfortable, his playful side comes out too! He enjoys playing with squeaky toys, playing a very gentle game of wrestle with people, and even plops over for belly rubs. He loves spending time with other dogs, especially when they're up for a little wrestling or splashing around in the kiddie pool. He's playful without being pushy and does a great job respecting dogs who would rather relax. He's also wonderful on a leash, happily strolling along at an easy pace! <br/><br/>When playtime winds down, Carl is happy to curl up on the couch and enjoy some quiet time with his favorite people. After everything he's been through, there's something especially sweet about watching him relax and soak up affection. <br/><br/>Carl is looking for someone who can see past his timid first impression and recognize the incredible dog underneath. With someone willing to give him the chance to build confidence at his own pace, Carl has so much potential to blossom into the happy, loving companion he's meant to be.<br/><br/>If you have a patient heart and are looking for a loyal best friend who will love you with everything he has, Carl is ready to meet you. 🐾🐾💜
