Description
Dog Breed: Carolina Dog (medium coat). Meet the sweet and sensitive, Red. This girl has had a pretty rough past, but she's ready to start fresh. Red came from an unsafe and unsanitary enviornment where she never got to practice being a `real dog.` This means that everything outside of her previous living environment is new(and therefore, frightening) to her. She is looking for a safe place to land where she can slowly come out of her shell at her own pace- without any expectations. She would benefit from a very quiet, predictable environment where no social pressure could be put on her. Here at the shelter, we have found that reuniting red with her best friend, Spot has made an immense difference for her. These two sisters being together has been mutually benefiical, and helps them build confidence! They love to go on walks together and wrestle in the yard. If your home is big enough to help two worried ladies find a safe place to land, these girls would love to stay together. They are able to make more progress moving thorugh the world as a pair!

Breed overview
Carolina Dog
A.K.A.: American Dingo, Dixie Dingo, Southern Dingo, Native Dog, Swamp Dog, Yellow Dog, CD
Overview:
The Carolina Dog, often called the “American Dingo,” is a fascinating and ancient breed believed to have descended from primitive canids that crossed the Bering land bridge with early humans. Originating in the southeastern United States, particularly the swamps and forests of the Carolinas and Georgia, they are a medium-sized dog with a distinctive wild appearance. Physically, they possess a lean, athletic build, short reddish-brown to black coat, and a characteristic "fish-hook" tail. Temperamentally, Carolina Dogs are known for their intelligence, independence, and natural instincts; they can be reserved with strangers but form strong bonds with their families. While adaptable, their energy levels and need for mental stimulation make them better suited for active families with access to a yard rather than small apartments. Generally a healthy breed, they are robust, though responsible breeders screen for common canine issues. Their unique history and engaging personalities make them a rewarding companion for the right owner.
