About Carrie

Meet Carrie! She's a young dog around 2 years old, eagerly seeking her forever family. Carrie's journey began on a former Army base in Anniston, Alabama, where she was found alongside her brother. Rescued by caring individuals, she soon made her way to Sandi Paws Rescue in Wisconsin, where her wonderful foster mom helps her thrive. Though she faced a challenge with heartworms, Carrie completed her treatment and is now heartworm negative. This beautiful girl sports a unique gray and black coat with a striking dark stripe down her back. She's adapted well to home life, being kennel trained and establishing a reliable routine. Always ready to greet her foster mom when morning comes, Carrie loves exploring the outdoors and enjoys her daily walks. Affectionate and eager for companionship, she's a fan of back rubs and kisses. Carrie gets along well with other dogs who share her energy, but her curiosity about cats and small animals suggests she’d be happiest in a cat-free home. While car rides aren't her favorite initially, she settles down quickly once on the road. Baths, on the other hand? Not her cup of tea. A quick wipe-down is a better option for her. Although she may seem shy at first, Carrie is a loyal companion just waiting for a chance to love and be loved. Could you be the family she’s been longing for? Every animal deserves a happy ending. This one starts with you.
