Charlie

Charlie is a 1- to 2-year-old Chihuahua mix with pearly white teeth and a personality as vibrant as his name! He was rescued from a local shelter due to fear aggression, but his foster family has been working tirelessly with him. Charlie is a bundle of energy and has a mischievous streak, excelling in "Olympic sports" like cat chasing (he's a pro!), wrestling with his foster siblings, and sprinting to snatch toys. He can be vocal but eventually quiets down after repeated requests. Despite his playful antics, Charlie is also incredibly sweet and loves to shower his favorite people with kisses. He can be a bit of a character, especially around men, where his "ninja action" on shoes might send them running! He's a wiggly, smiling boy once he trusts you, which takes time and patience.

Ideal Home

Charlie needs a special adopter who understands how to build and maintain trust with a dog who has experienced abuse. A patient and understanding human is a must.

Ongoing Health

No specific health conditions are mentioned, but his foster family is working on his potty training.

Training & Support

Charlie needs continued work on potty training. He can be vocal and may need guidance on when to be quiet. His foster notes that he has a tendency to "terrorize the men" and engage in "ninja action" on shoes, so a patient approach to building trust with all members of the household is important.
