Charlie - a classic name for a classic companion. Charlie is a gorgeous 18 month old medium-sized German Shepherd mix (his DNA test says he also has Australian Cattle Dog and Dachshund among several other breeds!) who originally came to CCR from a shelter in Texas. Charlie was adopted and well loved, but unfortunately his adopter didn't feel he would be the right dog for his lifestyle after quarantine ended. Now he's back and looking for the exact right fit! Charlie can take a minute to cut loose in new environments, but if you give him a minute to observe and adjust at his own pace, he'll love you as much as he's ever loved anyone! Then he's a goofy, athletic, affectionate dog who loves to go for long walks, runs, and then snuggle on the couch. He loves belly rubs, snuggles, and lots of praise - this guy is a ham for your attention! Charlie is good with other dogs off leash at daycare and the dog park, though he prefers the company of his people at home even more. Because he's a little high-strung, Charlie will thrive with a confident, easygoing handler who makes him feel safe and lets him fly his fun flag! Charlie is looking for adult only homes, and he respectfully requests no kitties please.
