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

Meet Charlie – Your Gentle, Golden-Hearted Companion
Available for adoption after June 16th
Charlie is an 8-month-old mini golden retriever mix who weighs just 25 pounds, and we believe he’s going to stay on the smaller side – perfect for someone looking for a golden soul in a pint-sized package.
This sweet boy was surrendered through no fault of his own. He came from a loving home where he was a cherished part of the family and grew up alongside children, whom he adores. Now in foster care, Charlie continues to thrive with kids around – he finds comfort being by their side and lights up when they’re near.
Charlie is still learning the ropes of the big, wide world. He’s nervous in new environments and needs some time to adjust, but we’re confident that with patience, consistency, and love, he’ll settle beautifully. He enjoys running freely in a fenced yard and playing with other dogs, though he’s still figuring out how to interact with them. He’s shy, a bit skittish, and sometimes flinches with unexpected touch, but his curiosity shows us he wants to be brave – he just needs help getting there.
Charlie is still working on his leash skills, and while he’s not perfect yet, he’s not bad at all for a pup his age. With gentle exposure and positive socialization, we know he’ll gain more confidence.
He travels well in the car and is a wonderful little companion. Please note: Charlie does shed, so he’s not suitable for allergy-sensitive homes.
Charlie is looking for a family who will go slow with him, give him the time he needs to feel safe, and let his gentle personality bloom. If you’re ready to help a shy boy grow into his best self, Charlie might just be your perfect match.
He is being fostered in Maple.

As my foster family gets to know me my profile can change and will be updated accordingly. Check back often for details! An application for me can be found at www.justpaws.ca.
Just Paws is located in the Greater Toronto Area of Ontario, Canada. We do not adopt out of province or country.
Please note that although many of our dogs get along with children, we are not able to adopt to any household with kids under the age of 8 years old. This is a stipulation of our insurance and is not a reflection on suitability of the potential adopter.
