About Carlton

Meet Carlton! This friendly girl is a true gem who eagerly seeks pets and attention from everyone. She loves belly rubs and is perfectly content to join you for a leisurely stroll or cuddle up for a long nap. Carlton came to us on October 13, 2026, after being brought in by our Humane Law Enforcement team. Unfortunately, she arrived with a severe eye injury that required us to remove the eye, but this hasn’t slowed her down one bit. She does have a tooth fracture that needs to be discussed with your veterinarian but otherwise, she's a happy pup. Carlton has been vaccinated, microchipped, and spayed, making her ready for adoption. If you're looking for a loving companion, speak with our team today!
