Date into Rescue: Karmen originally arrived in rescue in November 2014. Sadly, life changed for her owner and Karmen returned to rescue in February 2024.  Reason for being in rescue: owner release Foster location: Dreamweaver Farms, Pacolet SC Special Needs? Karmen is spayed, up to date on vaccines and heartworm negative.  Weight: 39 lbs Height: 16 in Spayed/Neutered: Yes Adoption Fee: $200 Fence needed? No. Karmen is very curious and can get out of physically fenced spaces. A leash and close monitoring are best for this girl. What kind of home would be best for me? Karmen has lived the last 10 years in a home as the beloved companion to a family. Life changes led her back to rescue as a more mature lady. Karmen could use a bit of exercise so an adopter with a moderately active to active lifestyle would be great for her. Her vet records note that she is currently overweight. She would do well in either an apartment or house. She is a curious and happy girl who would do well with most any type of person. Karmen's only request is no children. She wants to be in an adults-only home. What is my personality like? When Karmen is around humans her tail almost never stops wagging. She's a darling soft-spoken little girl. She has a gentle spirit and has been nothing but friendly to everyone she meets. Karmen is curious and loves to use her nose to explore new places, so please make sure she is leashed walked or have a high fence that she cannot get out of. She needs daily exercise with outside time to tire her out. Karmen does walk on a leash but pulls a little. We know she knows the command still, but she may need training in other basic commands along with her leash training. However, she is a smart girl and the right adopter, patient, kind, and a treat rewarder, should she her grow by leaps and bounds. This wonderful girl, through no fault of her own, is once again looking for a forever home. Karmen is hoping your home will be her dream come true. How do I act when I first meet new people? Friendly! Karmen is a people dog. She gets along fine with other dogs, but people are her thing. Oh, and treats too.  Treats are really her thing. Karmen will use her paws when you stop petting her to let you know it's not time for you to stop.  Other tips and tidbits: Our vet estimates Karmen's birthday to be around 10/17/2011. House trained? Dogs can be house trained if they are in the right environment and are allowed to follow a schedule if a physical reason doesn't keep them from being trained.  A dog house trained in my home may not be in yours. We will help you teach your new dog this necessary skill and based on your schedule.
