About Charlie
Relinquished (and microchipped) as a ‘Whippet X” but Charlie is definitely bigger than Whippet size—his long and lean build has him looking more like a Greyhound X to us. We’re thinking Greyhound X Kelpie because he has those big, stand-up Kelpie ears!
In any case, he’s a handsome lad who demonstrates both Greyhound and Kelpie physical as well as character traits. Greyhound barrel chest and gorgeous quads, Greyhound speed when he’s playing ‘chasey’, Greyhound tendency towards ‘couch potato’ when relaxing. Loves his walks, but tires easily, and is happy to quit after 40 minutes or so. Kelpie face and ears, and Kelpie intelligence. And how can you resist his palm-sized, heart-shaped spot of white fur on his back?
Can be a bit nervous at first, startling at loud noises and quick movements, but once he settles in a bit, his Greyhound couch potato self comes out. He was relinquished because his owner was moving into aged care housing that didn’t allow dogs. Dog and kid-friendly, Charlie is untested with cats. He was fostered with Chloe, another SAFE Metro foster for a week while his current fosterer was on holiday, and the two loved running around the back yard together, and then relaxing for a snooze. Charlie loves riding in cars, but still needs some work on his lead-walking.
Can you give this lovely, playful boy the stable home he deserves?
