Carmine

I am in a foster home and not at the shelter. If you are interested in adopting, submit an adoption questionnaire by email. Learn more hereAt just 1 year old and 40 pounds, Carmine is a great mix of playful pup and gentle soul. He's shy at first, but once he feels safe, you’ll quickly discover the sweetest, most loving companion.<br/><br/>Carmine's foster family reports he's always ready for snuggles, playtime, or showing off new tricks. On walks, Carmine can be a little too excited, but with guidance and patience, he’s eager to keep learning and growing. He's crate-trained, potty trained, sleeps through the night, and is content hanging out solo for a few hours—calm, cool, and collected when it matters most.<br/><br/>Carmine has come a long way on his journey and is still building his confidence. Treats (his love language!) and gentle encouragement go a long way. He’ll thrive in a patient, loving home with positive reinforcement and a resident canine sibling to help show him the ropes.<br/><br/>Carmine is ready to find his person, someone who sees his potential and can give him the safe, supportive home he deserves.
