At about 3.5 months old, Charlie is a short-legged, long-bodied cutie with a gentle heart. He was found abandoned in Louisiana with his littermates at just 3 weeks old. New people and new situations can be very overwhelming for him, so he's looking for a patient adopter who understands that trust is earned, not rushed. Once Charlie feels safe, his goofy personality starts to shine. He loves belly rubs, sniffing around the yard, snack time, and quietly hanging out with the people he loves.
Ideal Home
Charlie's ideal home is a quiet, adult-only home with a secure fenced yard and at least one stable, confident dog to help him continue building confidence.
Ongoing Health
Charlie has been spayed/neutered (if age-appropriate) and microchipped. He has been checked by a veterinarian and is up to date on necessary vaccinations, including Rabies and DHLPP. He has also been tested for heartworm and tick-borne diseases and has started heartworm and flea preventative medication.
Training & Support
Charlie absolutely benefits from having another confident, well-adjusted dog around. He takes his cues from canine friends and becomes much braver when he has a buddy to show him the ropes. He's submissive with other dogs and enjoys playing once he's comfortable. He's also cat-friendly - in fact, if a cat tells him to back off, he happily listens! His crate is his safe place, and he's doing wonderfully with house training when kept on a consistent schedule and crated when unsupervised. Charlie isn't looking for someone to fix him. He's looking for someone who will celebrate every little victory, let him move at his own pace, and show him that the world can be a kind place.
