About Carissima

Carissima is a 4-year-old English Bulldog with as much boldness as heart.

She loves her daily walks, though she’s still learning not to pull on the leash—a bit of patience and steady training will go a long way for her. Carissima needs an adopter who enjoys guiding her and can set boundaries: she can guard high-value items like bones, so a home without young kids (under 10) is best.
