Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Charles — a sweet, gentle pup with the ultimate puppy dog eyes!
Charles is equal parts cuddle bug and curious explorer. He’s done wonderfully with both the resident dog and his foster sibling, and loves nothing more than romping around with them before curling up for a nap. He enjoys chewing on toys, playing with his doggy friends, and soaking up all the affection he can get—he’s definitely a mama’s boy at heart.
Still a puppy, Charles is already learning the ropes like a champ. He’s crate-trained, doing well with housetraining, and knows cues like “sit,” “touch,” and “crate.” He’s food-motivated, eager to please, and excited to learn more—training with him will be a fun and rewarding experience.
Charles can be a little shy when first meeting new people, but he warms up quickly and does great once he feels comfortable. He even met a toddler in the driveway and handled it like a pro. With his calm, friendly nature, Charles would make a great addition to many types of families.
His ideal home would include loving humans who are around often to help guide him through puppyhood, and possibly a dog sibling to play with. Whether you're looking for a loyal cuddle buddy or a gentle playmate, Charles is ready to bring love, fun, and sweetness into your home.
Come meet Charles and see if he's the missing piece of your family!
