Meet Charlie!
Charlie is an almost 2-year-old Lab mix who is looking for someone to share life's adventures with. A bit of a serious boy by nature, he's happiest outdoors exploring trails, sniffing every interesting scent, carrying his favorite stick, or simply hanging out with his people. Whether you're hiking, gardening, or relaxing on the couch, Charlie just wants to be by your side.
Charlie is smart, eager to learn, and already knows sit, down, leave it, and usually comes when called. He enjoys training, puzzle toys, and having a job to do. He's fully house-trained, has wonderful house manners, rides quietly in the car, and loves toys and a good game of fetch – bringing the ball back most of the time! As a proud Lab mix, Charlie also believes no home is complete without a little black dog hair; consider it his way of making sure you're never far from your best friend.
Charlie has done well with well-matched medium and large dogs, but he doesn't need another dog to be happy. Because he has a strong prey drive and gets excited around squirrels, rabbits, cats, and small dogs, he'll do best in a home without small pets.
Ongoing Health
Charlie is continuing to build confidence when home alone. After experiencing several changes early in life, he's learning what it means to have consistency and a predictable routine. He's making great progress with training and medication, and benefits from a patient family who helps him feel safe and secure.
Training & Support
Charlie may bark when meeting new people because he takes his job as lookout seriously. Once he knows you're a friend, his affectionate, loyal personality shines through. He forms deep bonds with his family and loves being included in everyday life.
Ideal Home
Charlie isn't looking for a perfect family – he's looking for his family. Someone who will appreciate his intelligence, continue helping him grow, and give him the stability he's been missing. In return, you'll gain a devoted companion who will be your loyal shadow, your adventure buddy, and your best friend.
