Meet Carter Carter is a 10-year-old chunky little gentleman FULL of personality.
He has the sweetest little smile, makes hilarious facial expressions, and does tiny happy hops when he wants to tell you something.
He still plays with toys like a puppy, loves belly rubs, cozy couch cuddles with a blanket, and snacks (he has a soft spot for Chick-fil-A, though he’s on a diet!).
He’s a total ham, but has excellent couch manners and can fit into a home whether dogs are allowed on furniture or not.
Carter came to PugHearts as an owner surrender alongside another senior pug when his family went through some life changes.
He gets along WONDERFULLY with other dogs and cats and would do best in a calmer home without young kids, as he has some arthritis that makes him a little wobbly.
He may need help getting on and off furniture to stay safe!
He may be slightly hard of hearing, but he learns quickly with hand signals and positive reinforcement.
He does get a little vocal when he wants something (did I mention the Chic-fil-a..?)
but we are actively working on correcting that with him.
Carter is also making great progress with housetraining, as he is almost ready to graduate from the belly band only 2 days into being with his foster.
Crate training is going well and he sleeps wonderfully through the night!
He’ll go home neutered, heartworm negative, and with a simple routine that includes daily eye drops and arthritis medication as needed.
Carter has a minor procedure scheduled for 4/30 to remove a few small lumps and bumps, but nothing is slowing him down from living his best life today!
If you’re looking for a squishy, funny, food-obsessed cuddle buddy with endless personality, Carter is absolutely your guy!
