The late singer’s three-and-a-half-year-old German shepherd, Zelda, was with Carter in his room at the time of his death.

According to reports, Zelda appeared to be in shock when she was found. The dog was reportedly acting nervous and scared.

The pooch was taken in by Carter’s ex-fiancée’s sister, Jennifer Martin.

Jennifer’s fiancé, Max, told TMZ they took in Zelda the day after Carter drowned in his bathtub.

The couple knew Melanie Martin was going through a lot in the wake of her lover’s death and knew taking Zelda in was the right thing to do.

Fortunately, Zelda has been doing a lot better since the scarring incident, and she even has her own TikTok account.

On Sunday, November 21st, Zelda’s official TikTok account shared a video of the furry companion going dog toy shopping.

Carter had another dog, Karma, at the time of his passing. She wasn’t as traumatized as Zelda and was rehomed to one of Jennifer’s coworkers.
