Carly's story

　　Hello! My names Carly , but my foster mom calls me Charlie because she says I remind her of Charlie Browns Christmas tree. I was picked up on the streets of SoCal and arrived in Portland as skin and bones, with a bunch of infections and a gimpy leg. Im on the mend though and my personality is shining through. Turns out Im a wildly loving and fierce little street mama who cant wait to be someones permanent lap clown.

　　I am the silliest little cuddle muffin, contorting into all kinds of funny positions to get just the right scratches. And I have the sweetest little ant-eater tongue that Ill use to shower you with kisses. Im also brimming with personality and full of opinions that Ill be sure to share with you.

　　Ive clearly had lots of puppies, and just finally got spayed recently. But my protective instincts are extra sharp - I can be territorial with my bed, toys, and sometime food. My foster mom thinks that its probably from being a tiny little dog living on the streets working hard to protect my babies from who knows what, and for who knows how long. As Im realizing that theres no shortage of food or toys Im calming down, but I dream of a home with someone with a huge heart and a lot of patience who will help me to feel safe and secure.

　　Were working on potty training. Im getting pretty good about it, but Im a skinny little short-haired Cali girl and going out in the cold weather is tough! I like to be bundled up in my jacket, and once I get out and get warmed up I have fun running around the yard with my foster sister, a mini-australian shepherd.

　　Theres a cat and two dogs where Im living right now and I love bathing them and cleaning their ears. Theyre all very laid back and take my territorial outbursts in stride. I dont think Id do very well with a timid cat, or really high-strung dogs, and small children who might try to come steal my toys probably arent a great idea.

　　If you have a big heart, warm lap, and are looking for love and entertainment, Im your girl!
