charlie brown

Charlie is a 25lb shepherd mix who is guessed to be somewhere between 10 months old- 1.5 years old. He gets along really well with other dogs of all sizes, does well with cats, is potty trained. He does really well with the 3 yr old and 9 month old in his foster home, but 5yrs old and up might be better for him. His foster mom does not anticipate him getting much bigger. Charlie is incredibly sweet and friendly, however could use help/training to build his confidence with people and new situations. He can get very nervous/unsure with quick movements towards him, and will "nervous pee", or when trying to get him to do something he isn't crazy about like entering his kennel. He does do well in his kennel overnight and during the day, but does not like being guided to his kennel/initial entry. He is an active and curious little dude and loves to climb up on things to explore/observe. His curious nature and climbing abilities can get him into trouble with counter surfacing/jumping on top of tables and counters/etc, especially if he is feeling bored or he has the possibility of getting food. Charlie does love to snuggle up at the end of the day and just be with his people wherever they are. He would love a home where he has plenty of space to be an active boy, have a dog sibling to play with (he adores the younger female pup in his foster home), a family that is active and willing to work with him to help him gain confidence and be his best self!If interested in meeting Charlie, visit www.foreverhomedogs.org and submit an adoption application!All adoptions are $300 per dog for puppies under 1 year, $250 for adults 1 - 9 years old and $150 for senior dogs which include spay/neuter, micro-chipped and up-to-date on required shots. Senior dogs, at our discretion, are adopted out at $150 per dog because we know they will have less time with your family and may eventually have more needs as they get older. But we feel these dogs deserve to live out the rest of their lives as part of a loving family.
