Meet Charlie.

Charlie is a 2-year-old, 13-pound Maltipoo with the softest curls and a very sensitive heart. He was found abandoned in the desert and has spent the last three months learning how to feel safe again.

Charlie is extremely fearful of people-especially men. He is not aggressive at all. When he's scared, he freezes or hides. What he needs most is patience, gentleness, and time.

His safe place is the sofa, where he'll accept soft pets and show his sweet, hopeful side. Underneath his fear is a loving, loyal little dog who just needs the right environment to blossom.

Charlie must go to a calm, older female owner.
No men
No children
Quiet home
Another friendly dog is required

He thrives with other dogs and gains confidence from them. Charlie doesn't need to be "fixed"-he needs to be understood.

He survived the desert. Now he deserves a soft place to land.

Please share to help Charlie find the gentle woman he's been waiting for.
