This dog's adoption fee is $500. If you are still interested, please read more below. Hello, My name is Charlie and I came from a puppy mill where I lived all 7 years of my life. When I came to ARF I had no idea how to behave like a normal dog. I have been with my foster mom for 4 weeks now and I can tell you - things have changed in that time! I didn't know what a leash was, now I walk four times a day to do my potty business and there have been no accidents in the house since I have been walking regularly outside. I still don't like to sleep alone at night but after my last walk around 10:30 pm I go to my crate in my mom’s bedroom and I am happy and quiet until the morning. No complaints from my foster mom that I bark or snore…None of that!! I am very quiet. I am learning about all the noises in the house and I am so attached to my foster mom that I follow her everywhere. I am very sweet, love cuddles and brushing and my perfect happiness is cuddling next to my foster mom anytime I can be with her. I am okay to be alone for a while and manage to stay clean in the house as long as I get regular walks. I am a good eater and drink better now. I am very calm, low energy but still afraid of people that I don't know. Seniors or people working from home would be ideal for me. I have not been with kids, but because I am still scared of people I think I would be better in a house without kids. If another dog is in the house, that would be ok though to help keep me company. If not, I am so focused on my foster mom that I will be ok having you all to myself. I can be your little “ Velcro “ dog!!! I am ready for love. Are you the caring, patient, compassionate person ready to love me?? I would love to meet you. Charlie is microchipped, up to date on all vaccinations, housetrained, and neutered. This dog's family will be required to complete a basic obedience course of their choosing.
