Meet Carlos! 🐾 Carlos is a super sweet, goofy, cuddly, and oh-so-sensitive 8-week-old boy who is ready to find his forever home! 💙 He absolutely loves his people and has so much love to give. He can be a little shy at first and needs a little time to come out of his shell, but once he feels safe and comfortable, his cool little personality starts to shine. Before you know it, you'll be wondering how you ever lived without him! His breed mix is a mystery, but we suspect Carlos grow into a medium to large-sized dog. More of him to love! 🐾 Carlos has been staying in a foster home with cats and older dogs and has done great, so he's had a lovely start to learning about life alongside other animals. Carlos hasn't met children yet but we think he has the potential to do well with slow, positive introductions and appropriate supervision. He's looking for a patient, loving family who will give him the time and reassurance he needs to grow in confidence. In return, you'll get a loyal little sidekick, a whole lot of puppy silliness, and a best friend who absolutely adores his family. 🐶💕 Could sweet little Carlos be the missing piece in your life? ❤️
