Charlie came to us when he was found as a stray around the Cannon Falls area. His finders held onto him for over a month and had no luck finding his owners. Since they could not keep him long term, Charlie then made his way to us so he could find a forever home!
Charlie is a large, strong boy. He is easily over 70 pounds and is mostly muscle! He appears to be a mid aged (3-4 years), pitty type mix dog. His finders were able to give us some insight into how he lives in a home since they had him for a month. Some of the biggest things they said were...He is fully potty trained, crate trained, knows various commands (sit, off, wait), and enjoys relaxing in the home. The finders also worked on some commands like heel and come.
Charlie can be a little nervous around new people. He occasionally alarm barks at them in fear. Once he realizes that they are not going to hurt him, he becomes very affectionate and treat motivated. Charlie has not been formally dog tested, but with the right dog, it is believed he may enjoy having a canine companion. He has some experience with outdoor cats and has done well, but has not lived in the home with cats, to our knowledge.
Given his size and strength, he may be too much for young children. Older children in the home or no children would be preferred for him. If you think you have a perfect home for Charlie, apply online today!
Adoption fee is $200 + $30 microchip fee + tax
This big boy is Charlie!
