My story

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

This sweet, gentle, loving senior needs a forever home!! His human Dad passed away and Charlie has nowhere to go. We can change that only IF you open your heart and home.

What we know about Charlie:
10-12 years old
22 pounds (overweight)
Walks great on leash
Friendly, shy
Gets along with dogs (with proper introductions)
Chases cats
Kids 12+ older
Potty training is a work in progress
Talker
Male / female home

Charlie lived most of his life indoors, fed people food, led an inactive/isolated lifestyle and had not seen a vet in many years. Charlie's wellness exam, senior blood panel and urinalysis were positive with no concerns and will need a dental within the year.

We would LOVE to change all of this so while he's being temporarily cared for, we have instructed the guardians to begin his weight loss with a healthy diet and incorporate daily gentle walks. Charlie is eating a high quality diet with added senior supplements.

The home and lifestyle we are striving for is as follows:
- Retired, work from home
- Active walkers, quiet lifestyle, adventures outside of the home
- Single family residence with secure fenced yard
- Rural setting (he is not a city boy)
- Another small dog similar in age/energy and activity level
- No cats
- Experience and breed specific knowledge.
- Follows positive force free training guidelines

Locations we adopt: Washington State, Oregon, British Columbia
