Carson

Some dogs are born to lead, but Carson was born to accompany.<br/><br/>At just nine months old, this Lab already understands something most humans spend years trying to figure out: the best place in the world is simply wherever you are. Carson recently found himself back in our care through no fault of his own; his previous family loved him dearly, but a child in the home developed severe allergies. While it was a heartbreaking goodbye, Carson has handled the transition with the same grace and "big Lab smile" he is known for.<br/><br/>He is a "velcro dog" in the truest sense—a soul whose happiest state is within reach of his favorite people. If you sit down to read, he'll gently settle himself right across your feet, acting as a warm, breathing anchor. Because of his gentle nature, he is wonderful with children, greeting them not with a jump or a push, but with a wagging tail and a polite let.<br/><br/>However, don't let his calm indoor manners fool you—Carson is still a vibrant 9-month-old Lab! He is looking for an active family who will trade his indoor snuggles for outdoor adventures. Whether it's a long hike, a game of fetch, or a brisk morning walk, he needs regular exercise to keep his body healthy and his mind sharp. On a leash, he is already a steady partner, walking with a focus that shows he just wants to keep pace with his person.<br/><br/>Carson isn't just looking for a house with a yard; he is looking for a dedicated human companion or a family to call his own. He is a puppy with an "old soul" temperament—calm enough to chill at your feet, but athletic enough to be your favorite hiking buddy. Carson comes with a medical package that includes his neuter, microchip, rabies, parvo-distemper, Bordetella and de-worm. He is on flea and tick as well as heartworm prevention and is heartworm negative.<br/><br/>If you think Carson would be a good fit for your family, please SUBMIT an application.
