Charlie's Story

Charlie with 8 others were taken in from a breeder who was done with them and was going to kill if not removed within 72 hours. <br/>These poor dogs were kept in a crate large enough to turn around and lay down and that was their life. No interaction with humans. They will need patience, tolerance and time to figure out living outside a cage, what a house is, how to cuddle and understand that being held is not a terrible thing. They are finally starting to explore outside the cage and going in and out a doggie door. They do well with the other dogs at shelter. <br/><br/>Charlie is thriving. He is around 3 yrs. He is approaching people easier and showing less fear and confusion. He is accepting being held and not trying to jump out of arms.
