About Charlie
Meet Charlie!
This handsome young man is a 3 year old kelpie x red heeler. Unlike most of the dogs we rescue, Charlie isn’t deaf. However he is classed as ‘special needs’ as he is functionally blind. He can pick up some changes in light and dark in his peripheral vision but relies on his other senses to navigate his world. Charlie doesn’t let his missing sense get in the way of enjoying every moment of life.
Rescued from a NSW pound, Charlie recently made his way up to his foster home in Townsville and he’s absolutely thriving there.
He’s learning his basic commands and is also learning how to walk nicely on leash.
Charlie is a social butterfly and keen to engage with anyone and everyone. He loves being around people, is great with other dogs and is even good with cats.
As a working breed mix, Charlie requires regular exercise to manage his energy levels. He’s a smart cookie and also needs suitable mental stimulation to prevent him from becoming bored. Big bones to chew on, puzzle toys, stuffed kongs, scatter feeding and treat toys are all things that will help keep Charlie occupied if he’s spending time by himself.
Charlie is located in Townsville, QLD. Interstate adoption is available.d
Medical notes
Charlie is functionally blind
Adoption details
Hear No Evil's Adoption process:

Once the application is completed and returned it will be assessed for suitability.
2nd Step * A Meet and Greet with the dog and all members of the adopting family and and current dogs is arranged where possible.
This usually coincides with a Yard check to ensure the safety and security of the property on which the dog will be kept. - We understand that this is not always possible in interstate adoptions and this will be discussed on your initial contact.
3rd Step *Payment of the Adoption fee in full. The dog is then handed over with any belongings, and all relevant paperwork and records.
Transport arrangements are the financial responsibility of the Adopting party. Hear No Evil are happy to assist with departure preparations and ensuring the dog makes its transport connection.
