Story
Meet Charlie – 36 pounds of snuggly chaos wrapped in a Beagle/Pug mystery blend, aged 3 years and powered by pure zest for life. Charlie is a snuggle monster, a burrow king, and your future workout partner (just try keeping up when he gets the zoomies). He’s got two moods: full-throttle playtime where he bounces, nips, and leaps like a caffeinated kangaroo, and snuggle mode, where he melts into you like a fuzzy, face-loving marshmallow. He LOVES his human—like, can-I-put-my-nose-right-on-your-nose levels of love. He’s got a serious craving for affection and scratches, and when the cuddles are over, he’s happy to tunnel under the covers like a sleepy mole preparing for winter. And here’s the plot twist: Charlie is super treat-motivated—a fact that’s turning him into a very trainable little legend. With treats in hand, he’s shown major progress walking near other dogs and people. Public outings used to be a bit of a rodeo, but now? With the right snacks, he’s practically a model citizen. He’s met strangers and been his charming, friendly self. So yes, this boy has potential and snacks are the key to unlocking it. 💩 House trained? Absolutely. 🛏️ Crate trained? Yup. 🐶 Great with other dogs? Not even a little bit. He’s not here to make canine friends, okay? He wants to be your one and only fur-child and will bark, lunge, and generally make his “no thanks” very clear when other pups are around. Same with cats. And young kids. Now, a few quirky notes on Charlie’s resume: 👉 He’s had a moment or two of questionable decision-making, including a bold leap at the Foster’s neighbor (mostly jacket-focused) and a few overly enthusiastic nips during playtime with the Foster’s boyfriend. Nothing too dramatic, but it does mean Charlie would do best in a home with someone experienced, patient, and able to set clear boundaries (and maybe skip crowded hallways). Charlie’s got big love and big personality—he just needs a human who can work with him on his impulse control. With some structure, love, snacks (seriously, snacks), and solo-dog status, he’s going to be your ride-or-die blanket burrower, hike buddy, and personal bodyguard (whether or not you asked for one). Adopt Charlie—because under that slightly spicy exterior is a total marshmallow just waiting to snuggle into your heart… and your bed.

Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable, so for most of the dogs, we are only guessing at the predominant breed or breed mix. We get to know each dog as an individual and will do our best to describe each of our dogs based on personality, not by breed label. We expect that all adopted dogs will enroll in a formal dog training class with their new owners. Obedience and training classes are an excellent way to learn more about your newly adopted dog, gain handling and training experience, and improve your relationship with your pet.
