Story
Meet Charlie 🐾✨ Charlie is a 4-year-old Maltipoo with a big personality packed into a small, fluffy body! He was surrendered when he became a bit too much for his elderly owner—but in reality, Charlie is just an active, smart little dog who needs the right outlet for his energy. In true small dog fashion, Charlie has plenty of spunk and loves to stay busy. He’s currently living with other dogs and children in his foster home and is doing well, but he can get a little grouchy if young kids try to pick him up when he’s not into it. Because of this, we think Charlie would do best in a home without small children, or with older, respectful kids who understand boundaries. Charlie is looking for an owner who will treat him like a dog—not just a lap accessory. He’ll thrive with someone committed to giving him proper mental and physical stimulation, structure, and guidance to help him be his very best self. With the right person, Charlie will be a fun, loyal, and entertaining companion who keeps you on your toes in the best way. If you’re ready for a little dog with a big personality, Charlie might just be your perfect match 💛

Story
For inquiries email sharon@compactcaninerescue.org Fee: $600 Location: Hopewell, VA UPDATE 5/14/2026: Fat Tony is continuing to train with his trainer Morgan. He is learning new people are not scary as well as learning how to handle his big feelings. He has been started on anxiety medication to help him process those big feelings. He is a complete love bug at home. He loves sitting with his person and watching TV. Fat Tony will need a patient home. He will need to continue the foundational training he is currently learning. His trainer Morgan is more than happy to give you a free lesson (or two) when you adopt him. He just needs someone to give him a chance.     UPDATE: Fat Tony is currently in a Board and Train program at Arf Limits working on his leash aggression and behavior. Watch our website for updates and videos on his progression.   Fat Tony is new in rescue. He is a 3 year old, 12 pound, Maltese (mix). He is perfect in every way except one...he doesn't like other dogs...his "inner Brooklyn" starts to show... In all seriousness, he does not like other dogs and is very reactive on leash when he meets other dogs. He will need to be in an adult only home as an only dog and a fence will be required for adoption. A privacy fence would be ideal. Fat Tony just wants to be with his people. He is sweet and affectionate in his foster home. If you want a lap dog who does not require walking, he is your man!   For more information please email his foster mom and follow us on our social media channels.

Story
I acquired her April 11th, 2023 by owners who were eager to sell her. When I got her she was very friendly to everyone besides other dogs and cats, I also noticed she was scared of me touching her feet. I’m not sure if she was mistreated in the past or if she was just not used to it. I started taking her to groomers at first everything was fine but about a year ago they refused service. She will not let me trim her nails or groomer her all the way down to her feet. My goal is to find her a better owner with more experience, I’m not sure what to do anymore and I hate to see her go but I feel as it is best for her. Other than that she is a good dog who loves to cuddle, play, and go on walks.
