Carmen

Meet Carmen! Carmen came to the Behavioral Rehabilitation Center from a local shelter where she showed a lot of fear. Since then, this sweet and spirited girl has learned life is all about fun!

Whether Carmen is chasing tennis balls, splashing in streams on a hike or cozying up after a long day of adventure, she just knows how to have a good time. Carmen’s one true love, though? Treats! This foodie is happy to work for anything edible, even dry kibble, which makes training a breeze. She’s already learned to load up in the car, settle in a crate and is picking up new skills every day.

Carmen can be nervous in new environments and with unfamiliar people, so she may need a little time and space to feel safe. But with patience and gentle support, she warms up and lets her sweet, playful personality shine through. When given thoughtful introductions to other polite dogs, she enjoys playing and going on walks with them. Carmen is also learning that staying close to her person on walks can be a very good thing — especially when treats are involved!

If you’re looking for a hiking buddy with a silly streak and a big heart, and you understand that building trust takes time, Carmen might be the paw-fect match. Click “Submit an Adoption Inquiry” to learn more about her!
