Charlie's Story

AGE: 2 Years<br/><br/>SEX: Male<br/><br/>BREED: Shepherd Mix<br/><br/>ENERGY LEVEL: High<br/><br/>DOG FRIENDLY: Yep!<br/><br/>CAT FRIENDLY?: Yep!<br/><br/>KID FRIENDLY?: No<br/><br/>Meet Charlie! This handsome boy is a playful, curious, and sweet-natured guy with a big personality to match. He loves spending time outdoors and would be happiest in a home with a backyard where he can explore and stretch his legs. Charlie enjoys his toys and even knows the word “toy!” He’s very food motivated and isn’t picky at all, happily enjoying treats of all kinds (including cucumbers and broccoli stalks!). While he’s not overly snuggly, he does seek out affection and enjoys pets and attention from his people.<br/><br/>Charlie has lived in a home with both dogs and a cat and has done well with them. He’s a confident dog who communicates clearly - he’ll let you know when he wants attention or is ready for a walk, and he isn’t shy about using his voice. He can be a bit timid when meeting new people and isn’t overly interested in strangers at first, but he is a friendly guy underneath it all, even if his big bark says otherwise. He does well when left home alone, even outside of the crate, and while he doesn’t love being confined, he will go into his crate on his own when he wants some downtime. He already knows cues like sit, stay, and shake, and is currently working on skills like “stay” and “find.” Charlie is eager to learn and enjoys training, especially when treats are involved.<br/><br/>On walks, Charlie can get excited and tends to pull, especially when he sees other dogs, which may also lead to barking. His foster is currently working with a trainer on this, and continued support will help him build calmer leash skills. He also has prey drive toward small animals and may bark at people or dogs he sees out the window. Charlie can be a bit sensitive to handling (such as paw wiping or vet visits), so continued positive experiences will help him build confidence in these areas. He would do best in a home without children where he can feel secure and understood. Charlie is looking for an experienced handler, ideally someone familiar with the breed, who can continue to guide his training and help him thrive. With the right guidance, patience, and structure, Charlie will thrive as a loyal, engaging companion for someone ready to match his energy and continue helping him grow.<br/><br/>Think you might be the right fit to provide a loving home for Charlie?

New Collar Collective's Adoption Policy
ADOPTION PROCESS 1. Complete and submit an adoption application. All applications will be screened, and applicants will receive an email response letting you know whether your application has been approved to move to the next step in our process or not. If you have not received a response from us, first check your spam/junk folder before sending us an email. 2. You will be asked to submit two personal references, and a vet reference where applicable, as part of our process. Please make sure to let them know that they may be contacted by one of our volunteers. Veterinarian clinics will require your permission to share any information with our team. 3. A phone interview will be scheduled with one of our adoption coordinators via email or phone. 4. Your adoption coordinator will connect with one of our volunteers to schedule a home visit. Home visits will be completed virtually or in-person depending on available resources. If a virtual home visit is completed and there are any outstanding questions or concerns, New Collar Collective reserves the right to do a follow up (in person) home visit. Volunteers conducting virtual home visits will be required to direct the home visit so we are assured they have seen all areas of the home. Volunteers conducting in-person home visits will be encouraged to bring a friend along for their safety. In this case, you will be notified in advance. 5. A meet & greet will be coordinated with the animal’s foster. All members of the household (including dogs) will be required to attend the meet and greet. 6. Post meet & greet If there are no further questions or concerns, applicants will contact their adoption’s coordinator to let them know if they would like to move forward with the adoption. Adopters will be contacted to provide all contract requirements. ADOPTION POLICIES The policies outlined below are guidelines and there may be instances where an exception can be made upon the agreement of the adoption management/Board of Directors. Periodically, New Collar Collective will revisit these guidance policies to ensure they still meet the intended needs of the rescue. We do not adopt to applicants who live outside of our adoption radius. We do not ship dogs. Adopters are responsible for picking up their newly adopted pet. All pets in your household must be spayed and neutered. All pets in your household must be up to date with mandatory vaccinations. We do not allow applicants to test out a cat/dog before adoption. We expect that applicants will take the necessary time to meet with the dog or cat, talk with the foster, and ask lots of questions. Our rescues have already been through so much, we feel it is in their best interest that trials do not occur. *Exception for Foster-to-Adopt applicants All members of the household must be present during the Home Visit and the Meet and Greet. We do not adopt to families with children under the age of 4. The full adoption fee is due at the time of adoption. We do not offer payment plans.
