About Charlie
Charlie is a sweet, gentle little guy who wins people over with his soft nature and expressive eyes. He can be a bit shy at first, especially with new faces, and may flinch slightly around quick movements near his head. But once he’s had a moment to take you in, his tail starts wagging, and his affectionate side shines through. He’s much more confident outdoors than in his pen, and meeting people on a walk is when his true, happy self really comes out.
After a few interactions, Charlie bonds quickly and deeply. He’s the kind of dog who wants to be close to his people and thrives on companionship. Because of this, he’ll do best in a home where someone is around most of the time. He may experience separation anxiety, and when left alone he has been known to try to escape, he’s even dug under a yard before, so secure fencing and a family committed to helping him feel safe are essential.
Charlie is house‑trained and eager to learn, but he’ll benefit from some basic training and gentle leash guidance to help build his confidence. He’s dog‑friendly and could happily live with another dog of similar size and temperament, or he’d be just as content as the only dog with regular social opportunities. His soft nature makes him suitable for families with children aged five and up who can interact with him kindly and respectfully.
With patience, reassurance, and plenty of love, Charlie will blossom into a loyal, cuddly companion who wants nothing more than to be part of a family. He’s ready for a home that understands his sensitive heart, appreciates his sweet spirit, and can give him the company he craves. Could Charlie be the little friend you’ve been waiting for? Apply now for the opportunity to meet him. ❤️
