We want him to have the family of his dreams that will take him on adventures and play with him, even if that's just in the backyard for frisbee or catch, then share all the cuddles together. He's a go with the flow kind of guy and appreciates every bit of kindness that is offered to him, and that's why we think he deserves the very best!

She doesn't bark very often at all except when she gets excited while playing or when her foster arrives home from work. She is good on leash. She rides good in the car. No cats please; she's too curious about them. While her current foster home has no other pets, Carmella does like other dogs.

She will often choose to sit by her human to get belly rubs rather than running and playing with other dogs.
