Charlie

My story

Hi, I'm Charlie! I'm a Labrador Retriever blend. I weigh 70 lbs and I'm just 4 years old. Adventurous, athletic, and loyal, I'm just looking for the Linus to my Charlie Brown: someone to be my best friend forever.  General Behavior:  As long as his people are by his side, charming Charlie is a happy boy! He is very sweet and loves nothing more than to snuggle and give kisses. He seeks affection so he’d do best with a person that would love a dog that wants to be by your side at all times. A lot of things seem new to him so you have to be patient as he learns more about a life where he gets to out for walks and is free to play in a yard. Likes & Dislikes: In addition to snuggling with his people, this active, athletic guy loves to run in the yard and get his energy out. It's easy to tell when he's content: he loves to clink his teeth together when he’s happy and smile. Training: Charlie has the makings of a very good boy! He sleeps on a dog bed all night and waits for you to get up before he does. He is quickly picking up walking on a leash. He is housetrained if let out regularly, he is a well-behaved passenger during car rides, and knows basic commands. He even takes treats very gently.  Medical: Charlie is a healthy boy! He just needs his monthly flea and heartworm preventatives, like any dog. Other Animals: Charlie is good with other calm dogs. He can be a little shy at first but warms up quickly. He’s has yet to be observed around cats, but his foster does not think he'd get along with any feline friends.  Children:  This gentle, sweet guy loves kids of all ages…even loud and active 5 year olds. Home: Charlie would do well in a single-family home where he can run and where someone is around more often than not. He likes to be with his humans more then being by himself because he gets sad when you go away. Grooming: Charlie does not require much elaborate grooming, apart from brushing. (He does shed, so he will need to be brushed!) Overall: Charlie will make a wonderful companion for someone who wants a best friend to walk or go running with. He will love you and your family forever. Charlie is ready to meet his forever family: could that be you? Or could you even just foster this friendly fellow for a few weeks? If so, visit our website www.PoodleandPoochRescue.org where you will find the application to adopt or foster. You’ll be put in contact with the foster family for more information if it’s a potential match. He is up to date on vaccines, microchipped, and neutered. His adoption donation is $400. ##2413789##
