Carter's Story

Meet Carter <br/><br/>Carter is a handsome Golden/Great Pyrenees/Lab mix who came to GRRAND from a hoarding situation in September 2024. While his early life didn't include much human love, this gentle boy is showing us more of his heart every day.<br/><br/>Carter is very sweet and a bit shy, but he's been warming up beautifully to our kennel volunteers. Lately, he's started to show how happy he is to see them—following them around the play yard and quietly soaking up the attention. He also plays well with other dogs and recently stole the show during a photo session, smiling big and even posing for the camera like a pro!<br/><br/>Because of his limited socialization, Carter will need a home without small children and a securely fenced, above-ground yard. He is considered a flight risk and will need a family that understands his needs and can keep him safe. Patience, consistency, and kindness will be key as Carter continues to build confidence. Having another stable, confident dog in the home is especially important for him—it will help show him the ropes and reassure him that the world isn't such a scary place after all.<br/><br/>Carter is a true sweetheart who just needs the right family to help him blossom. With time, love, and a canine friend by his side, this gentle soul will make a loyal and loving companion. He can't wait to find the forever home he deserves. If you would like to learn more about Carter, please fill out an app at GRRAND.org<br/><br/> <br/><br/>If you would like to donate to Carter's care or the care for the remaining dogs he came in with, please visit https://www.gofundme.com/f/rescue-for-dogs-in-deplorable-conditions<br/><br/>A beacon of hope shines bright as GRRAND and animal advocates across the commonwealth collaborate to help rescue animals trapped in a devastating hoarding situation on a rural County Kentucky farm. Advocates eagerly await justice for the abused animals and the swift rescue of those still suffering in inhumane conditions. <br/><br/>It's awful to think of the terrible lives and abuse they have been subjected to. A litter of 4 week old puppies were found on the property and all had to be treated at the Emergency Vet for Parvo to save their lives and sadly, one did not make it. We have extremely high vet expenses for these dogs and really need ongoing donations to pay for all their care and we are also in desperate need of foster homes for these dogs. <br/><br/>As we continue to assess the individual needs of these deserving animals, additional information to come, so please check back for more updates...
