About Carter
Meet Carter: Your Future Cuddle Buddy! 🐾
Hi there, I’m Carter! I’m a special guy looking for my perfect forever home, and I’m ready to shower someone with all the love I have to give. I was adopted from Belle Vie Animal Rescue a few years ago, but after escaping my home due to boredom, I found myself back in care. Since then, I’ve shown my true colours as a happy, sweet, and well-behaved pup!
I currently live with other dogs and get along great with everyone, especially my lovely female foster sister. I do best with calm, mature canine friends, and having a doggy buddy in my new home is a must. While I can be reactive to sudden movements and loud noises, I’m learning to feel safe and loved again. A quiet, gentle environment is ideal for me, preferably with older children who understand my sensitive nature.
I’m a fantastic house guest—obedient and eager to please. I know all my commands: sit, shake, wait, lay down, and more! I’m not a big fan of toys, but I do enjoy helping my foster mom with chores, like taking the washing off the line. When it comes to playtime, I act like a toddler, loving a good game of tug-of-war more than chasing a ball.
I’m not one to bark often, but I’ll let you know if someone is at the door. Once I know who’s there, I return to being my quiet self. I love indoor cuddles and can sleep outside comfortably, too. While I coexist happily with birds, cats, fish, and even chickens, I need a little extra help from my human to feel safe around cats.
I love food—especially bones—and I’ll sleep with them at night! If I get bored, I might dig or chew on shoes, but give me some cuddles and a bone, and I’m all set. I would prefer to be the only dog in the home, but a small, nice female dog could work too—just no bullies, please!
I’ve had a rough start, but my confidence has grown since returning with BVAR, and I’m hopeful my forever family is out there. If you’re looking for a loyal companion who loves cuddles and gentle love, I’m your guy! 💖
I have a beautiful wired coat and am approximately 25kg.
