Carmy needs a new foster home! Are you open to welcoming him while he awaits his FURever family? Everything Carmy needs is provided by our rescue, Albert's Dog Lounge

🚨 EMERGENCY: FOSTER NEEDED ASAP FOR CARMY! 🚨

Meet Carmy, a young and incredibly loving pittie who is in desperate need of a foster home — and fast! 💔 2 years old & 45lbs.

Carmy is an athletic, fun, curious, and gentle boy who LOVES people of all ages and sizes. He's amazing with humans, but unfortunately, he's had a few negative interactions with other dogs recently (none of which he instigated) and is now needing a home as an only pet. We truly believe he would thrive in an environment where he’s the sole furry companion.

✨ What we know about Carmy:

Age: Young, full of energy and love!

Personality: Sweet, loving, and very playful. He’s the perfect running buddy and would make an awesome office or shop companion.

Separation Anxiety: He experienced separation anxiety upon his arrival into rescue but after consistency, patience, love and medication, he can now comfortably spend a full work day alone at home curled up on the couch. Carmy cannot be crated or he will become extremely anxious. In a perfect world, Carmy would LOVE to be with someone who works from home or can take him along for the ride.

Training: He’s been working with trainers, and we will continue covering those costs to ensure his success. He walks on a leash, though he can pull a bit—he’s eager to learn, and fixing that will be easy with some continued guidance.

Potty trained ✅

What he needs:

Foster or adopter in an ONLY PET home (no other pets at this time, please).

A fenced yard would be great, but not a requirement.

Someone who can commit to continuing his training and helping him feel secure and loved.

This is an EMERGENCY. Carmy is in urgent need of a new foster home or adopter ASAP. He’s been through so much, and we just know that with the right person, he will flourish and be the best companion anyone could ask for.

PLEASE share this far and wide! 🙏 If you or someone you know can help, please reach out. Let’s get Carmy the second chance he deserves! 🐾❤️

Happiness looks like this! We currently have 35 dogs enrolled in our SNIFFari Adventures program. There is room for a few more yet. We require a 3x/week minimum to join. All dogs must be super social, have excellent off-leash recall, enjoy being outdoors year round and be relaxed car riders. If you think your pup would thrive in this setting, please reach out! We’d love to introduce your furry family member to our farm trails!
