ADOPTION PENDING!!! We are no longer accepting applications for Charlie, but PLEASE check out the MANY OTHER PUPPIES we have available for adoption!
Charlie is a 4 month old, 25ish lb, Golden Retriever who was saved by a Good Samaritan from an abusive home... They were unable to take care of him, so they surrendered him to GRRAND.
Charlie had a rough start, and was skittish around people, but he is coming out of his shell and he loves playing with other dogs! He will need a family who has the time and patience to work with him through some of his insecurities, and to show him what lots of love is all about. He also needs a home that abides by the GRRAND puppy guidelines...
Puppies are a lot of work, and if you are interested in a GRRAND puppy and have children, PLEASE SEE THE ADOPTION FAQs section of the website for more detailed info. GRRAND policies stipulate a few important things that may stop you from applying, and here are 2 big ones-
A: GRRAND will NOT place a puppy under the age of 6 months with families with children under 6 yrs old
B: Any applicant with children under the age of 16, will require a home with direct access to a securely fenced yard... meaning direct access to the yard from the home… so this means no apartments or condos.
As with all puppies, he will need a home where someone is home most of the time as he needs to be fed regularly, and let to go outside consistently and constantly ALL DAY LONG so potty training can be a breeze. He will be looking for a family with LOTS of time and patience to socialize and work with a puppy so they can grow up to be good pups! ***Exercise and direction are a must as a tired puppy is a good puppy!! It is a lot of fun, but it is a lot of work, and if you don't have the time, an active and non-stop playful puppy may not be for you!
Families must understand there needs to be constant supervision as children of all ages need to learn to respect an animal and puppies, and need to be taught boundaries. We are excited Charlie will get to know what a nice soft bed, in a warm and cozy home with a loving family is all about!
We will update as we learn more about him, but if you are interested in meeting him, please fill out an application at GRRAND.org
