Carbon - Cocker Spaniel Dog for Adoption in Austin, Texas

Meet Carbon -- if he had orange stripes, he'd be Tigger!

This gorgeous 6-month-old bundle of energy is always ready for fun. Carbon seems convinced he's meant to walk on two legs, because the other two are often airborne. When he's not bouncing around, he's zooming ahead like a tiny ninja just in time to make you ​catch ~yourself~ from being airborne.

​He's a total snuggle bug who loves being close to his people, walks nicely on a leash, and once he feels comfortable, his playful side shines with toy chasing and zoomie​s.

Carbon is working on housetraining and building confidence when left alone. He has separation anxiety and can howl or cry for extended periods, so he would likely do best in a home without shared walls (not an apartment, condo, or townhouse) and with adopters who can continue helping him feel secure.

With patience, consistency, and ​a forgiving furever home, Carbon is going to make an incredibly fun and affectionate companion.
