Story
Meet Charlie!
Age: 2 Years OldWeight: 10 lbsBreed: Yorkie/Miniature Poodle Mix
Charlie is a happy-go-lucky little guy with a playful personality and plenty of love to give. This handsome 12-pound Yorkie/Poodle mix was surrendered when his owner was no longer able to care for him. While it was clear he was loved, Charlie arrived with an overgrown coat and nails that had gotten far too long, reminding us just how important regular grooming and routine care are for these fluffy companions.
Despite the changes in his life, Charlie has remained upbeat, friendly, and eager to make new friends. He has done well with other active dogs, but does like to bark at the cats in his foster home. He enjoys being part of the action and likes to know what his people are up to at all times.
Charlie would do best in a home with older, dog-savvy children who can respect his size and understand that small dogs sometimes need a little space when adjusting to new situations. He has demonstrated a good understanding of house manners and settles nicely into a routine. Because he was recently neutered, his future family should be aware that he may initially mark in new environments while he continues adjusting and his hormones settle.
Charlie is currently working on crate training and establishing a consistent routine in foster care. He is making good progress, but like many young dogs, he will benefit from patience and consistency as he continues learning expectations in his new home.
When it comes to walks, Charlie is always ready for an adventure. He enjoys leash walks but has a tendency to pull when excitement gets the better of him. Continued leash training will help him become a more polished walking companion. He can also be a bit vocal when excited or when he feels it's his responsibility to alert his people to potential dangers, making him an excellent little neighborhood watch captain.
As a Yorkie/Poodle mix, Charlie will require regular professional grooming throughout his life to keep his coat healthy, comfortable, and free of painful mats.
Charlie is not a good candidate for a tether or invisible fence and will do best with a family committed to providing safe, supervised outdoor time and plenty of companionship.
If you're looking for a cheerful, affectionate companion with a fun personality and a zest for life, Charlie may be the perfect addition to your family.
Charlie is ready to leave his past behind and find a family that will love him furever.

IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN THIS PET, PLEASE COMPLETE THE APPROPRIATE APPLICATION FOUND ON OUR WEBSITE HTTP://FUREVERTAILS.COM. Unfortunately, at this time we are not currently adopting outside of the state of MI. We process applications ONLY - there is no guarantee that you will get a response to an inquiry.
Many of the animals in our foster program come to us with limited or unknown histories. We make every effort to evaluate each animal’s temperament and behavior, including testing their interactions with other dogs, cats, and children (defined as individuals under the age of 18, when available). However, every animal is unique—just as every child and household environment is different.
While we strive to set both our foster animals and adoptive families up for success through thorough assessments and transparent communication, **we cannot guarantee any specific behavioral outcome**. Animals can be unpredictable by nature, and behavior may change in new environments or over time. By proceeding with adoption or foster placement, applicants acknowledge and accept this inherent risk and agree that no guarantees, either expressed or implied, are made regarding the temperament or behavior of any animal placed through our program.
