Carlos
is a bit of a celebrity. He came to Stray Rescue from Oman (see story
on our front page). He was rescued by a nice woman over there who desperately
tried to find a home for Carlos. When she couldn't, she started contacting
shelters in the U.S. Once we heard his story we knew we had to help this
poor guy. Someone had treated him not so nice and he was terrified of
people. They also gave him one of the worst home ear crop jobs we've ever
seen. Once he arrived at our shelter it was apparent just how scared he
was. He would hide in the corner anytime someone approached him. He would
flinch if we reached out to pet him. Then one day he saw Ovaltine and
his whole face lit up and his tail slightly wagged. Ovaltine had been
rescued just a few days before and was on her way to a foster home. But
once we saw Carlos' reaction to her we knew she was just what he needed.
Since sharing the office together Carlos has really come out of his shell.
He is now all happy and tail wags whenever the volunteers come to get
him for his walks. He loves chasing balls in the shelter yard and will
do just about anything for peanut butter. His transformation is amazing
to watch. Carlos loves to go for walks (just watch out for squirrels)
and now welcomes petting. He would do best in a home with another well
socialized dog to keep him on the path started by Ovaltine. He can still
be a bit skittish so a home with lots of love and patience is a must.
If you would like to meet this handsome guy please fill out one of the
online applications and we can make arrangements for you to stop by and
meet him. Carlos says to tell you "bring peanut butter". |
