Story
We adopt all over the map, and can come directly to your home If you are unable to come to us.
Charlotte is our beautiful 10-month-old Goldendoodle, and there truly aren’t enough wonderful things I could say about this girl. She is absolutely AMAZING. 🩷 She has one of those personalities that gets you right in the heart, and there is something so incredibly special about the way she loves her people.
Charlotte is affectionate in the sweetest way. She loves hugs and will actually burrow her head right into your chest as if that is exactly where it was always meant to be. 🥹🩷 She is constantly watching her people with that happy little tail wagging, simply grateful to be included in whatever the day brings. You could be outside working, walking around the house getting things done, or quite literally sitting there daydreaming, and Charlotte is perfectly happy just sitting beside you because, to her, being with you is enough.
She is a true companion dog through and through.
Charlotte is wonderful with other dogs and is also great with cats. If her new home already has another sweet dog waiting for a sister, she would make an amazing addition and would genuinely enjoy having that friendship. At the same time, another dog is not a requirement for her. If she is going to be the only dog in her home and her person or family has the time to give her the companionship and friendship her heart desires, she will be every bit as happy soaking up that love for herself. 🩷
She is house trained and goes outside when asked. She is very accustomed to being part of our day and is happy to head outside with us, do what she needs to do, and then wait patiently for us to rejoin her if we aren’t quite ready to head back inside yet.
Inside the home, Charlotte has beautiful manners. She isn’t overbearing or constantly demanding attention. As much as she adores being near you, she also understands how to simply settle. If you’re busy or tending to other things, she will quietly find herself a comfortable bed or stretch out on the cool floor and contently relax until you’re available again.
She is crate trained and currently sleeps peacefully and quietly in her crate throughout the entire night until morning. For a family who prefers not to use a crate long-term, I don’t foresee her having any trouble transitioning to sleeping on a dog bed of her own once she has settled into her new home and routine.
Charlotte is also a very smart girl and already has a wonderful little vocabulary! She knows sit, shake, come, stay, and even hug. 🥰 And our girl happens to be bilingual, so she knows stay in Spanish too. She listens very well and genuinely enjoys interacting with her people, which makes continuing her training fun because she already has such a wonderful foundation.
She isn’t a barker, although she will occasionally alert you to an unfamiliar noise. Once acknowledged and asked to settle, she listens and settles right back down.
Meeting new people is another thing Charlotte takes completely in stride. She is wonderful with anyone new and seems to consider you a friend almost immediately. Her tail starts wagging, her head drops for that much-deserved pat hello, and that’s essentially your opportunity to officially accept her friendship. 🥰 She has such a happy, welcoming nature about her.
Charlotte is leash trained and walks beautifully. She isn’t trying to rush ahead or drag you from one place to the next. She walks slowly and nicely alongside you, once again proving that what she really wants is simply to be your companion. Whether it’s a neighborhood walk, an afternoon outing, or somewhere new to explore together, she’s just happy to be included.
She is also wonderful on road trips and travels very well in the car, so a family who enjoys taking their dog along on adventures will have a very willing passenger.
She loves our groomer and does wonderfully for her grooming appointments as well. She will be freshly groomed prior to adoption so she can head into her new life looking and feeling her very best. 🩷
Charlotte will be going home on a spay contract. At 10 months old, our veterinarian recommends allowing her to finish maturing before being spayed, which for her will be right around the one-year mark. Her adopting family will be responsible for having her spayed according to the terms of her adoption contract once she reaches the appropriate age.
Prior to adoption, Charlotte will be current on her yearly vaccines, including Rabies and Bordetella. She will be microchipped and will receive a thorough examination with our veterinarian. She will go home with a health certificate from our vet stating that she is healthy and cleared for her new home. We will also have a fecal sample sent to the laboratory to ensure she is cleared of intestinal parasites prior to adoption.
Her adoption fee is on our website at the bottom of her adoption listing at https://www.breadoflifek9refuge.org/post/charlotte
Her fee helps cover all of the veterinary care listed above, along with her overall care while with us, her grooming... including a fresh groom before going home, and the training and socialization we have continued to provide during her time here.
Charlotte is one of those dogs who makes it very easy to imagine what life with her will look like. A sweet face watching you from across the room. A wagging tail because you looked her way. A quiet walking partner beside you. A head tucked into your chest when she needs one of her hugs. A girl who doesn’t need every moment of your attention but absolutely treasures every moment of your friendship.
She is affectionate without being overbearing, social without being demanding, playful and happy while still knowing how to settle, and simply grateful to be part of whatever her people are doing.
She is, overall, that kind of friend everyone deserves to have at least once in their lifetime. 🩷🩷🩷
