Carter's Story
Please contact Nancy Anderson (nancya@luckydoganimalrescue.org) for more information about this pet.young boy ready to play! CARTER NEEDS A FOREVER HOME!!!!<br/><br/>Name: Carter Best Guess for Breed: Lab mix<br/><br/>Best Guess for Age: 7 months as of June 2026 SEX: Male<br/><br/>Estimated Weight: 24 pounds as of 3/8/2026 and again as of 4/12/26; he did not grow in that time. He *could* still have a bit more to grow though.<br/><br/>Gets Along With: Other dogs! We haven't seen him with kids or cats but are happy to discuss integration techniques with any interested adopters.<br/><br/>Currently Living at: DC area foster home<br/><br/>Special Adoption Considerations: Dogs from Puerto Rico have a major transition to go through when they arrive and will need humans who are very committed to socialization. We think this pup would do best with either a resident dog or a family who can make sure they can go on walks regularly with other dogs, visit the dog park, or go to doggie daycare to learn the ropes.<br/>Carter is Looking For: Hiya! I'm Carter! I came here from Puerto Rico with my littermates Camila, Catherine, Clara, Carlos, Colby, Cara. Growing up with them was fun and all but I'm ready for my own family! I want to explore the world by the side of my humans - sniffy walks, romps in parks, and all the adventures they can dream up! Making dog friends is high on my wish list too.<br/><br/>But you know what I want most of all? To always be safe and loved, to know where I belong. In exchange, I promise adoring gazes and loyal companionship for all my days. What do you say? Do I get to go home with you?<br/>What My Foster Says About Me: Carter is a short stack with tons of character. He loves to cuddle on someone’s lap when he's done playing. When he wants attention, he’ll do a few air chomps before letting out a little bark. He LOVES squeaky toys and chewing anything that is in front of him. He holds his own play wrestling with his sister and has a good sense of when to disengage and shake it off. He loves a lick mat and did a great job figuring out his first puzzle feeder. He's sweet and people focused and is going to make a wonderful companion!<br/>Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken. All of our dogs are working on their crate training.<br/>TO ADOPT: The adoption fee for this dog is $460, which includes the cost of routine vetting, neuter, and transport from the shelter. If you are interested in adopting, please complete the Adoption Questionnaire online bit.ly/adoptaluckydog<br/><br/>Lucky Dog Animal Rescue does our best to provide accurate information about the dogs we have for adoption.
