Carmie - Fee Sponsored's Story

Meet Carmie! <br/><br/>QUIZ: DO YOU QUALIFY FOR THE CARMIE VIP LIFESTYLE? <br/>Some dogs are built for any old boring routine. Carmie? She requires a fun and active lifestyle. If you answer YES to the following criteria, you might just be the chosen one destined to adopt this Laughing Buddha lookalike.<br/><br/>YOUR HOME IS A "NO PETS, ALL PEOPLE" SANCTUARY<br/> The Lifestyle Fit: You want a ride-or-die canine companion, and your home is free of other dogs and felines.<br/> The Carmie Reality: Carmie wants to be the undisputed center of your companion animal universe. In return, she offers universal love. She is obsessed with all humans-every age, shape, size, and color. If your lifestyle involves hosting friends, greeting neighbors, and being the popular house on the block, Carmie will act as your official welcoming committee.<br/><br/>YOU WANT AN ADVENTURE CO-PILOT<br/> The Lifestyle Fit: Your weekends involve road trips, exploring new places, and occasional home improvement projects-and you like a clean car.<br/> The Carmie Reality: Carmie has a 100% perfect track record of never getting carsick. She is crate and potty trained, handles road trips like a seasoned pro, and knows plenty of commands (which she will happily perform... when she feels like it). Her favorite places include Lowe's and Home Depot, where she charms shoppers with her Laughing Buddha smile and crinkly eyes.<br/><br/>YOU'RE HAPPY TO SHARE CHORES<br/> The Lifestyle Fit: You find laundry tedious, wish you had a fuzzy foreman to supervise, and wouldn't mind a canine surveillance camera either.<br/> The Carmie Reality: This 1-year-old, 40-pound, adorable girl has that cattle dog vibe and loves jobs. She actively helps get clothes out of the dryer and runs strict quality control to ensure no socks or underwear are left behind. Plus, she guarantees 100% protection against completely undetectable security breaches.<br/><br/>YOU THINK "WALKIE-TALKIES" INVOLVE SNEAKERS, NOT RADIOS <br/> The Lifestyle Fit: You view daily walks as an engaging team sport, not a mindless chore where you stare at your phone.<br/> The Carmie Reality: Carmie is working hard on her leash reactivity and needs an active handler who can continue her "Walkie-Talkies"-structured walks where we train with high-value treats. She would also benefit from a fenced-in yard where she can zoom safely when she's not out on official training missions.<br/><br/>YOU DON'T TAKE LIFE (OR TOOTS) TOO SERIOUSLY<br/> The Lifestyle Fit: You have an easy sense of humor and want a dog who makes you laugh whether she means to or not.<br/> The Carmie Reality: Carmie is the reigning champion of Mrs. Steal-Your-Seat. You've been warned. You must also be okay with a dog who occasionally startles herself with her own toots and literally "talks" back when she's annoyed with you.<br/><br/>THE VERDICT<br/> If you answered NO: No hard feelings! The Carmie Reality isn't for everyone.<br/> If you answered YES: You have found your canine soulmate. Carmie has a managed heart condition (ventricular arrhythmia), but that doesn't slow her down. She just needs a family who will commit to her medication schedule. As she's not quite a puppy and not quite an adult, Carmie also needs pet parents who will continue her good dog training. She comes with six virtual training sessions with a certified trainer in the first 60 days to help you start off strong together! And the secret weapons to getting her to behave are ham and cheese and cheek scratches.

Operation Paws for Homes's Adoption Policy
Our organization provides pet adoption services to families located in Virginia, Washington DC, Maryland, Southern Pennsylvania and neighboring states. We believe in responsible adoptions and strive to work with each adopter to find a good match for their home and lifestyle. Our adoption process includes completion of an application, a vet check, an interview, and a personal “meet and greet” where the family can meet and interact with their potential new four-legged family member. Throughout this process, we work to ensure each family and dog are the right fit for each other. We are fortunate to have some wonderful and active volunteers who help OPH find forever homes for over 1,000 dogs and cats a year. The key to that statement is - volunteer! Please remember that our organization is driven by caring individuals who give their personal time to help rescue these animals and provide them with the opportunity to find an amazing future! In addition to adoptions, volunteers carry out education and outreach events throughout the area, and conduct donation drives for our partner shelters in the south. Our goal is to offer a second chance to dogs and cats abandoned in shelters and out of time. Sadly, without our help, some of these adoptable animals would face almost certain euthanasia - sometimes within days of arriving at the shelter. Each year we rescue hundreds of wonderful dogs and cats. We work hard to unite them with forever families who will give them the life and love they deserve. These animals are saved only because of the dedication of our incredible adopters, fosters, donors, and volunteers.
