12/26/25 - I had me a Merry Christmas, I had me a Merry Christmas, I had me a Merry Christmas, now need a home for the New Year! Hi, my name is Charlie, and on New Year’s Day. I will be seven months old. Just two short months ago, I was living a horrible existence in a rundown shed in the backwoods of nowhere. I was the last of a litter and for some reason had not found a home yet. My living conditions were deplorable, my landlord was the scum of the Earth, and I never knew if my next meal was coming or not. Then all of a sudden, one day, in walked a lady with angel wings on her back. She had heard about me around town and decided to come and rescue me. She scooped me up from there, put me in her car, took me home, cleaned me up, fed me and talked sweet to me. I was not used to any of this, but I welcomed it all. Since I had very little human contact for 6 months and no one really ever spoke to me, this was new to me and I was kind of afraid and anxious. But my rescuer walked me through it and treated me so good. She was not in a position to actually own a puppy at the time, but she saved me anyway to start me on my journey. From there, she connected with Yorkie Haven Rescue to make sure that my future would be all that it could ever be.
Now I’m in a foster home with other dogs, toys to play with, comfy beds, everywhere, good food, and treats that taste as if they just fell from heaven. With all of this positivity, I’m coming into my own personality and acting like a puppy should act. I’m playing with toys, I’m running around spastically, I have the attention span of a hummingbird on crack, and I wake up every day ready to take on the world. I never knew life could be so great. But on the flipside, I’m a sweet, lovable, kissy-kissy little guy that wants to please.
I’m working on the potty training and currently wear a belly band when I cannot be watched because I will make mistakes. I cannot be blamed for this since I’ve only had 60 days of freedom where I did not use the bathroom where I had to sleep. You can’t expect a prisoner that has totally be treated like their existence doesn’t matter to have all the social and etiquette skills without some routine and structure. And I have a small bladder.
Foster mom and dad say I’m doing really well as far as puppies go. I’m keeping my chewing on things that aren’t meant for chewing to a minimum, so far. Oh, except for the rug under the kitchen table and trying to run off with a piece of mulch or two out in the yard. The good news is when I’m sternly told “No”, I listen. I even like the discipline.
When it’s time to go to bed, I lay down and crash. But when the sun comes up, watch out! I eat like it’s my last meal and enjoy every day like it’s my last day. I know it’s not now, but old habits are sometimes hard to break.
I need a home that has a fenced in yard since I like to run around outside and doing my business on the end of a leash would feel like torture. Although, I’m cool going for walks. Small children and an active house are a no-no since I’m so small and still timid if things are too loud or rowdy. It would be ideal for me to have another young small dog to play with and learn from. I also would not do well being left for long periods
Anyway, I know I’ve kept you long enough and should wrap up this bio, so, what do you say? If you are ready for a lifetime of tail wagging, puppy kissing, and endless adventures, I’m just an adoption application away. Let’s make this New Year the start of something special together.
12/14/25 - BIO COMING SOON (Charlie just recently entered the program)!
