Uses the dog door beautifully and will whine if it’s closed<br/><br/>Crate Manners: Excellent — may need a little nudge going in, but settles quietly<br/><br/>Door Dasher: Improving<br/><br/>Jumper: Yes — when begging for love or snacks<br/><br/>Counter Surfer: No (a true lady)<br/><br/>Energy Level: Medium — zoomies in the yard, couch potato inside<br/><br/>Motivation: Food and praise<br/><br/>Dog-Friendly: Does well with other dogs who respect her space and aren’t overly pushy<br/><br/>With New People: Extremely friendly with everyone — human lover through and through<br/><br/>Car Manners: Nervous but calm<br/><br/>Favorite Things: Toys, blankets, laps, and all the belly scritches<br/><br/>Best Home Scenario:<br/>A calm-ish home would be ideal, but honestly Carol is adaptable and could fit beautifully into many households. She just wants love, routine, and a human to Velcro herself to.<br/><br/>Fence Needs:<br/>A physical fence strongly preferred (we know why 😅)<br/><br/>🐾 Adoption Info:<br/><br/>All of our animals are fully vetted, which includes spay/neuter, up to date on vaccines, wormed, heartworm tested and treated if necessary, up to date on flea/tick/heartworm prevention, and microchipped prior to adoption.<br/><br/>Our requirements are non-negotiable and include the following:<br/><br/>All current pets in the home must be spayed or neutered if over 6 months of age, unless there is a documented medical exemption with veterinary confirmation.<br/><br/>All current dogs must be up to date on Rabies and Distemper/Parvo (DHPP) vaccinations.<br/><br/>All current dogs must be on consistent, consecutive heartworm prevention.<br/><br/>Past dogs listed on the application must also show a consecutive history of heartworm prevention.<br/><br/>To start the adoption process, please fill out our application here:<br/>👉 https://www.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/WAG/Dog<br/><br/>Please also take a moment to read our requirements located in the application.<br/><br/>Please note:<br/>The dog you’re applying for might already have a meet-and-greet scheduled, be on a trial with another family, or has been offered to another rescue within our network.
