He's the kind of companion who brings comfort, warmth, and steady love into your everyday life. <br/><br/> Ideal Home<br/><br/>Charles would do best in a calm, loving home where he can receive plenty of affection and companionship. He's a wonderful fit for a family, a single person, or a retired couple looking for a gentle soul to share quiet moments, cozy cuddles, and unconditional love. <br/><br/> Charles's Rescue Story<br/><br/>Charles once had a family and a home—but sadly, circumstances changed. His family could no longer keep him and were prepared to give him away without knowing what his future might hold. <br/><br/>Thankfully, a kind-hearted woman who knew of his situation stepped in. She took Charles into her care and reached out to us for help. Because of her compassion, Charles was given a second chance at safety, stability, and love.<br/><br/>When Charles arrived, it was also clear he needed medical attention. He had a very bad condition in his mouth, with significant gum inflammation due to the poor state of his teeth. A dental cleaning was performed, and 7 teeth had to be removed. Thankfully, after this procedure, Charles recovered very well and is now in great health.<br/><br/>Now, Charles is ready for his next chapter—a forever home where he will be cherished and never have to worry about being left behind again. <br/><br/> Adoption Details<br/><br/>Charles is currently in Mexico and will travel once a family is committed to a 10-day trial adoption.<br/><br/> Adoption Fee: $600<br/> Apply at: www.northwestwagrescue.org<br/><br/>Charles is patiently waiting for the family who will choose him—and love him forever.
