ADOPTED

Sadly it’s seeming to be nearly impossible for Carter to find the love of someone willing to help……early next month will be a total of 4months of spending his life at our shelter being an 8yr old boy who should be enjoying his time living his best life……. This boy is needing a miracle it seems as he would do best being the only animal in the home…..Carter came to our shelter stray back in August where he was found wandering stray in Ruckersville Wal Mart parking lot….. fortunately he was microchipped but sadly the name he was in had rehomed him many years ago….. so we reached out to the organization he was orginally adopted from they did not want him either(overfull)…. That left this 8yr old dog sitting in a shelter with no one wanting him. Here we are months later with the same scenario no one wants him…… Carter is such a loving boy that just wants your attention. Carter seems to be maybe a hound/pit mix. Carter weighs 55lbs. Carter still plays with toys and loves going on walks. Carter does well with baths and is overall a good dog. You can tell he was loved at one point in his life, but sadly no one is wanting to love him during his senior time of his life. We are sadden for Carter as we know he deserves to feel love but no one is wanting to give him the opportunity. Carter is in need of everyone’s help to share him with all your friends and family. We know it’s hard to find a home where no other animals are, but now it’s seeming impossible…..Carter may be 8yrs old, but when you first walk him he will have a little energy as you can only imagine the excitement he feels when he gets to spend time out of his kennel with humans. Carter truly is in need of someone to love him and show him he does deserve to feel love. Help Carter find someone….. Carter has been neutered and is UTD on his shots. Our hours to brighten this boy’s life are Monday, Tuesday, Friday 10-2 and Saturday 10-3. Share Carter. Carter is available for adoption and to 501c3 rescues. Please message if you have any questions regarding Carter!! Let’s find this boy happiness!!
