Vol. 17, No. 16 – May 1 – May 14, 2024 – Forever Homes Wanted

Hi: I’m Paxton, a friendly 4-month-old Terrier X rescued from Kern County in my hour of need. I’m thankful to my sponsors who enabled me to come into CARL’s adoption program.

As you can see, I am a 3-legged pup. My front right leg was amputated and I know some people will see this as a flaw, but I think it makes me special. I’m still an active pup and I’m looking forward to spending a future full of love and adventures with my special someone. They don’t know what happened to me, but suspect I was hit by a vehicle.

Since I’m just a puppy, children in the home must be at least 6 years of age. I know I’m cute and everyone will want me, but please be sure you’re ready to take on a puppy as it’s similar to having a newborn (2-legged kind) in the home. It’s a lifetime commitment, not a temporary one where the love and attention wears off after I’m grown.

If you’re ready and able to give me a lifetime of love and wonderful memories, please fill out an application to meet me. Canine Adoption and Rescue League C.A.R.L. https://carldogs.org/
