Carmel loves to play and especially loves to swim. She's a food hound, which will make training her easy. She is a bit guarded at first and takes awhile to warm up, but yummy treats and a calm demeanor go a long way. Adults and dog experienced owners only. If you're experienced with chows and understand their temperament that would be best.

Carmel is estimated to be around 3 years old.

To adopt Carmel, you must own your home and provide proof of homeownership with a carrier that does not forbid chows. (Sadly, we find this happening all too often.)

All dogs are seen by appointment only. Our adoptions include an application, meeting the dog, a home check, and an adoption contract. Please visit www.shamrockrescue.org/info/adoption for more information.
