Charlotte Shepherd Mix Bellingham, WA

Meet goofy Charlotte - a young shepherd who is still learning the ropes of how to be a dog! Charlotte was a young mom and after raising her puppies, she is able to be a puppy herself. Charlotte enjoys people and dogs alike. She can be a bit nervous at first, but with time and patience warms up. She loves her toys and will bounce around the room to show them off. If you're lucky you'll see this girl's silly personality come out. Charlotte "scoots" herself around the room to get to you and rolls over onto her back for belly rubs. Charlotte is hyperactive and smart and will need to go into a home where someone is present more often than not to keep her company and give her plenty of enrichment activities to do throughout the day to keep her mind busy. If you are interested in adopting, please fill out an application on our website (www.whatcomhumane.org/adopt) or in person at our facility. We recommend calling into the shelter after your application has been submitted so our front desk can give you next steps on our adoption process.
