Carmella's Story

Carmella is a gorgeous golden brindle and white sweetheart who was found as a stray in Petersburg on November 7th. With her flower collar and soft, hopeful eyes, it’s clear she was once a well-loved house dog — and she carries that same gentle, trusting spirit with her still.<br/><br/>Carmella is a little on the chunky side in the most adorable way, and her mellow, affectionate nature makes her instantly endearing. She’s housebroken, calm in her kennel, and happiest simply being near people. Whether she’s quietly resting on her blanket or leaning in for attention, Carmella radiates a calm, comforting warmth.<br/><br/>She is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccinations, and ready for a fresh start in a loving home.<br/><br/>Our shelter is completely full, and every adoption right now is truly lifesaving — especially with the holidays approaching. Carmella deserves a safe place to land and a family to love again.<br/><br/>Could she be your new reason to smile?<br/>Email adoptpetersburg@gmail.com to learn more or meet her.

Petersburg Animal Care & Control's Adoption Policy
Thank you for your interest in adopting from Petersburg Animal Care & Control! We’re so glad you’re considering giving a shelter pet a loving home. We do not charge an adoption fee; however, all animals must be spayed or neutered prior to adoption, and the cost of the procedure is covered by the adopter. We’re happy to support adopters by coordinating appointments with our low-cost veterinary partners for spay/neuter services and other basic care needs. Adoption Process • We prefer to schedule appointments for meet-and-greets to ensure that staff or volunteers are available to spend adequate time helping you get to know the animal. • When you arrive, please sign in and wait to be escorted by a staff member or volunteer before entering the kennel areas. • For safety reasons, please do not reach into kennels or attempt to touch animals through barriers. If you’re interested in a particular pet, our team will bring them to a meet-and-greet area for proper introductions. • After your visit, you’re welcome to submit an adoption application. Applications must be approved before we can schedule a meet-and-greet with your family pets. • Meet-and-greets with personal pets are by appointment only, and for safety, two staff members must be present to handle all animals involved. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to make each match the best fit possible — both for our animals and their future families.
