Chuck

My story

(DOB 01/10/2024) Meet Chuck (Charles, if you're feeling fancy, or Chuckles, if you want to keep it casual)! This charming, butt-wiggling, lovable boy is ready to become your new best friend. Chuck may have a big head and a fit frame, but don't let that fool you! He's a total goofball who loves snuggles and belly rubs. His heart is as big as his head, and he’s always excited to share his love with his people. Want a pup that LOVES to be with you, then Chuck is your guy. He LOVES his people and can be described as a bit of a velcro pup. He will "invade" your personal space just so you know how happy he is to be in and around you. You will be the joy in his heart, smile on his face, and the reason his tail constantly wags.  This sweet boy has been an absolute star when it comes to training—he’s responsive, eager to please, and loves a good adventure. He’s a natural in the car and has even rocked trips to the vet (bath time and surgery included). For example, he is fully trained to wait nd eat his food; such a sweet gentleman. He’s good with people, including kids and older folks. He is uber tolerant and kind with his foster family's son. He’s a little shy with strangers at first, but with a little patience, he’ll warm right up and offer his big smile! He wants to meet every canine pal, though his first meet-and-greet with our older dog was a bit… enthusiastic (he's learned to dial it down since his neutering). Chuck's dream is to be friends with every dog he meets, and he’s always hoping for a little play date! While he can get a bit vocal on walks when meeting new people or doggies, it’s all in good fun and just a part of his playful personality. Chuck has not had an opportunity to meet those other furries, the felines. Chuck does have one little quirk—he’s not the biggest fan of being alone. This poor guy may whimper or bark a bit when left by himself, but with love and reassurance, he’s made some good progress. He just needs to know that you're coming back—and trust us, he’ll repay your patience with all the tail wags and cuddles you can handle. Chuck loves his daily walks and does not require a fenced yard as long as his family continues this kind of routine. He still has a lot of energy. Have a fence; that would be an added bonus. He does get easily distracted by all the new smells, and he’s got some serious puppy energy when he spots other doggies! A little poitive reinforcement, treats, and patience will go a long way in helping him focus and keep up his good walking manners. He’s house-trained, a champion crate sleeper (complete with adorable snores). Chuck loves his way-too-small dog bed and looks so silly and cute curlded up and sleeping in it. He’s never chewed anything in the house. Plus, he’s a total pro at sharing—whether it’s food, toys, or treats. He is living his best life, he's ready to make your life better, too!! So, what’s the bottom line? Chuck is a sweet, loving, tail-wagging companion who just wants to be your best buddy. He’s ready to learn, grow, and show you just how amazing life can be with a dog like him by your side. If you're looking for a goofy, loyal, and endlessly loving pup to join your family, Chuck is the one for you. Why not give this big-hearted boy a chance? We promise he’ll make your days brighter and your heart fuller. As part of Chuck’s $300 adoption fee, he is neutered, microchipped, up to date on age-appropriate vaccines, and current on his monthly flea/tick and heartworm preventatives.
