Adopt a Greater Swiss Mountain Dog / Shepherd / Mixed (medium coat)
Carlos * the Dog needs a home
Carlos is a big gentle boy. He has been calm and friendly to all he meets, but after being attacked by another dog in his adoptive home, he is no longer trustworthy with other dogs.
He is housetrained and knows how to use a doggie door. He walks well on leash and enjoys going for a hike. He rides well in the car and is easy to take along. He really likes kids, but because of his dog issues only older kids would be better. **We'd like to find him a home where he doesn't need to be around other dogs, but he has been working with a trainer on this and is much improved. He can be around other dogs to go for walks and such. He's doing so well!
A home with large dog experience would be ideal. Carlos is such a nice boy and has so much to offer as a companion for the right home. He's super smart, and loves to give kisses.
Carlos is about 10yrs. old and 89lbs.
Carlos cannot live with cats.
UPDATE: Carlos has developed a "protein losing enteropathy" which has responded well to treatment. He requires a special diet and an inexpensive medicine to manage this health problem. We are so sad that he's never, so far, found a loving home.
Carlos has been a long term foster, and we are greatly appreciative of sponsorships.
Carlos is neutered, up to date on vaccinations, and heartworm neg.
