Carolina Dog Puppies For Sale near Savannah, GA

Carolinas are one of the earliest breeds, with their paw prints dating back thousands of years. They are an independent bunch and many still roam freely in the U.S. Whether four-legged or two-legged, Carolina Dogs enjoy being a part of a pack. With proper socialization, they make sweet, loyal family members. Full-grown, they typically weigh 30-55 pounds and stand 17-19 inches tall.

Carolina Dogs are generally okay with older children who know how to handle dogs. They are playful companions for children within their family, and if raised together, they will be friendly with other animals. Carolinas are naturally cautious with anything new: people, pets, surroundings. They're moderate barkers — they'll alert you when something's up but aren't excessive.

Free-spirited wanderers for hundreds of years, Carolinas need to be exercised daily. But as they are uneasy with new pets and places, they might not be the best breed to bring to the dog park. Instead, consider putting them on the leash for a run in a park or long hike in the woods. Overall, their exercise needs are high.

Not much is required in the grooming department for these dogs. Carolinas have perked-up ears and a short wheaten-colored coat. Just be sure to stay on top of the usual maintenance; brush their coats and teeth regularly and bathe and clip toenails as needed. Grooming-wise, this breed is low-maintenance.

Carolina Dogs are best suited for a rural property or home with a large yard. Carolinas are happiest in a home with a large backyard for leg stretching! They can live outdoors full-time but like to be with their pack. They are moderately trainable with consistent effort.
