Carmen and her 11 puppies were taken in from a local shelter when her puppies were only 2-3 weeks old. She proved to be the most devoted, caring mommy we have ever had the pleasure of taking in.
Carmen is currently in a foster home, and had gotten along great. If you are looking for a super sweet girl, who loves to be with her people, she could be the dog for you. She is one of the happiest, most loving dogs you have ever seen, always wagging her tail and smiling. She definitely loves being with her people, but also gets along well with her foster siblings. When she first came into her foster home, she kept trying to play with her foster sister (who is 11 1/2 and not very interested in playing), so another younger foster dog was brought in, and she has taken to him incredibly well. They have enjoyed playing and romping in the yard together. She could benefit from being in a home with another dog that likes to play, although, she has been found to be slightly dog selective, preferring non aggressive dogs, so a home visit with a family who has another dog would be suggested to ensure they will get along.
Carmen didn't know basic commands, but has learned to stay, and sit, and goes to lay on her bed when she is told to do so. She is happiest having a bed on the floor, and has not gotten up on the furniture at all, even though the animals are allowed on the furniture in her foster home. During the day, she is out, and sleeps on the floor on her bed in her foster mom's bedroom at night and there have been no issues with either her staying out during the day or at night. She seems to not have much sense for telling when she needs to go outside, except for going to the door and waiting, but she is completely house trained, and this has not been a problem in her foster home.
She is pretty good on a leash, and gets really excited about walks, although she does pull a bit, but for her size, it's really not bad. Her family will need to continue to work with her on that aspect, but I think she will learn with time
Carmen has been spayed, heart worm tested negative, vaccinated, wormed, micro chipped and if you would like to meet/adopt/foster this sweet girl please fill out a application at furrykidsrefuge.org/adoptadog and a dedicated volunteer will be in touch.
