Small waste sites are very common in villages or towns. These waste sites usually consist of 2 to 6 containers where residents can dispose of their household waste and all kinds of other things. And, unfortunately, there are always baby animals.

A little boy was on his way home from school when he passed one of these waste sites. While walking by, he noticed 4 puppies squatting under a container. The boy sat down in front of the container and tried to lure the puppies out with the help of a piece of bread. Little by little, the little furry noses came out. The boy wanted to take the puppies and bring them to safety and tried to take all 4 in his arms. But he didn't have the strength to carry all 4 at the same time. So he had to leave 3 puppies there at the rubbish dump. In tears, he ran home with the one puppy in his arms.

Once there, he told his mother about the 3 puppies he had to leave behind, crying. His mother knew Anca and immediately called her to ask for help for the 3 puppies. When the boy heard that Anca was coming to look for the 3 puppies at the rubbish dump, he immediately ran. There was no way he wanted to risk Anca not finding the place, so he ran almost a kilometre to meet her. Arriving at the waste site, Anca helped the little boy secure the waiting puppies and then drove to his home. His mother agreed to keep the 4 puppies with her until Anca had space in the "Safe Place".

Since then, Karlo has been living with Anca in the "Safe Place" and has developed into a lively young dog. From time to time, the cheerful Karlo has a bit of mischief on his mind and tries to steal the broom from Anca or one of her helpers. But it's not even about stealing for the young male dog, he rather pursues his passion. Karlo likes to carry things around and proudly show them to his doggy buddies. Karlo likes his fellow dogs very much, size, age or gender do not matter. He is friendly to everyone and also likes to play a round or scuffle in between. Karlo also knows cats and has no problems with velvet paws.

Karlo is a modest, affectionate male dog who sometimes can't believe it when you call him to you. Then you can see the question marks in his eyes - is it really him? Stroking and cuddling him is the best thing in the world for Karlo. Then his eyes light up and his expression suddenly changes to a happy-looking furry nose. Karlo loves people more than anything and would do anything to get his own humans. Karlo knows how to wear a harness or collar, he knows how to walk on a lead (but this could be improved).

We are looking for people with dog experience who would like to show and teach Karlo everything a young dog should know and be able to do with us with joy, patience, time, empathy and lots of love. It would certainly be great for Karlo if his new people wanted to encourage his passion for carrying and fetching things. Karlo certainly wouldn't mind having a friendly companion waiting for him in his new home. Attending a dog school would be desirable.
