My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Charlie is a 4 year old Silky Terrier (papers say yorki-poo, but we thought Silky and his groomer confirmed it). He was turned in by his owner due to family circumstances. He needs an experienced owner who understands the small dog mentality. A single owner would be great, or a couple (not a roommate situation or a busy environment with lots of visitors). He prefers women over men, at least at first. He is the most adorable little guy and deserving of a great home. He is so playful and loving. He loves to run, loves to grab a stuffed animal and run outside with it. He will even chase a ball. Charlie was great with his family and loved to sleep in the bed. He was an only dog raised but raised with 2 cats. He loves his toys and loves to play. He loves to play fetch/tug-of-war, loves to be near his family when hanging out, follows you around. He loves to go for walks and adores riding in the car. He is frightened and nippy with strangers sometimes, especially men so he will need to get the right training and redirection. He is very smart and knows a lot of commands so that's not the issue. He needs some with meeting new people when he's on his territory, but he's a little guy and many don't take to having large people reach over them. He is in a foster home, so please fill out the online application if you would like a private appointment to meet him. We're hoping to find him a great home with someone who has terrier experience. You won't be disappointed. Apply at www.saveadog.org for a private appointment.
