About Carson

Carson is a special guy who lost one of his back legs when he was run over. He's adjusted remarkably well to being a tripod and is incredibly eager to find his loving forever home! He's smart, playful, sweet, and full of love to give. We're also looking for a foster for Carson, so if you're interested in providing him with a temporary loving environment, please reach out! Carson is neutered, vaccinated, and ready for his next adventure!

Ideal Home

Carson would love a home where he can share his playful spirit and sweet nature.

Ongoing Health

Carson is a tripod due to a past injury but has adapted wonderfully. He is neutered and vaccinated.

Training & Support

Carson is house-trained and has a generally good temperament. His smart and playful nature means he'll likely pick up new things quickly with positive reinforcement.

Application Details:
