Charlie's Story

Can you believe it?! Our little Shih Tzu/Pekinese (our guess) senior boy is ready for his forever adventure. Charlie’s adoptive family will receive a 🧬 test, as our gift to you! If you are seeking a little sweetheart who dances at mealtime, Charlie is your boy💗 If you are seeking a travel companion, you are in luck! Charlie loves car rides and adventures. If you are seeking a great walking companion, Charlie does a little strut to show everyone he’s ALL that and a bag of chips! Charlie would do well with other dog friends of similar size and doesn’t mind him being a little salty sometimes. He has the cutest little bark! If you are extra lucky he will follow that up with light snoring during nap-time (he’s your personal white noise machine)💗 Charlie has his big dental already scheduled, (don’t worry- we’ve got you covered and are taking care of this expense for his forever family), we can discuss! Charlie is overdue for a glow-up, we were waiting for his hair to grow back🥴. We’re THRILLED to share that it’s has! Charlie has been fully vaccinated, microchipped, senior blood panel, (heart-worm negative), urinalysis and a fecal panel completed. We also ruled out Cushing Disease, phew! All that’s missing is YOU! Don’t miss out on this darling little senior grandpa, he’s counting on you! We don’t know about kitties, children over 10, a quiet household with a family who wants to keep him company would be his wish! Let’s get this little boy seen and adopted! Foster-to-adopt starts now💗 Want to learn how to adopt Charlie- reach out to us. He’s waiting for YOU!

Charlie's Foundation's Adoption Policy

Wanting to adopt a Senior? We'd like to tell you about our Adoption Process. All of us are volunteers and no one is paid. We do the best that we can to respond as timely as possible, but we also have our own animals, children, spouses, jobs, families, and homes - just like you. So, please be patient with us. 1. APPLICATION The first step in being considered to adopt a senior companion pet from us is to fill out our adoption application located under the "Forms" tab. If you found one of our dogs or cats on Petfinder.com or RescueMe.org you still need to fill out our online application as that is only an inquiry. It may take several days or weeks before we are able to get your application processed. During this time, please make sure that you contact your vet and references to let them know that we will be calling. We realize that our online application can be temperamental and sometimes cell phones or Ipads won't let you complete the form. We ask that you use a desktop computer and that should fix the issue. 2. REVIEW PROCESS Once your application has been reviewed, we may contact you by email or phone to verify information or ask for clarification. 3. PHONE INTERVIEW If/when we have a senior that would be a great fit for you and your family, we will call you and your references. At that time we will ask many questions and we hope you do too. 4. MEET-AND-GREET If you are approved, we will arrange a meet-and-greet. This gives all family members and pets a chance to meet, we ask that all family members are present. Please note: You and your family will be required to travel to the city where the senior dog or cat resides. We do not transport our dogs or cats to potential adopters. 5. ADOPTION If the meet-and-greet goes well and all agree, the adoption paperwork is finalized and your new family member may go home with you that very same day.
