Meet Charlie, a handsome, affectionate boy with a heart full of love and a special talent for giving hugs. If you're looking for a loyal companion who wants nothing more than to be close to his people, Charlie may be the perfect match.Charlie's story began with an unfortunate start. He and his sister were found abandoned near a rural road, and while his sister had to be trapped by animal control, Charlie happily walked right up to them, ready to trust and love despite everything he had been through. After spending time in foster care, both dogs were adopted together. Sadly, after recently being found running loose, Charlie was surrendered back to rescue and is once again searching for the forever family he truly deserves.Charlie adores people and thrives on attention, affection, and—most of all—hugs, hugs, hugs. He gets along wonderfully with adults and has done very well with older children. During a recent family visit to his foster home, Charlie happily soaked up attention from a 9-year-old boy and enjoyed being part of the fun.Charlie has also had numerous opportunities to interact with other dogs, both male and female, and has consistently shown himself to be a polite and friendly companion. He enjoys canine company and has always been a very good boy around other dogs.He walks on a leash and is eager to accompany his people wherever they go, although he can become so focused on getting closer for affection that he occasionally forgets he's supposed to be walking! Charlie also rides beautifully in the car and is the perfect co-pilot for any adventure.Charlie is truly an all-around wonderful dog—sweet, gentle, affectionate, and full of love to give. He would love a similarly happy sibling companion, and all he needs now is a family that will cherish him, return his hugs, and give him the happy ending he's been waiting for. In return, Charlie promises to fill your home with loyalty, companionship, and affection.Name: CharlieBreed: Weimaraner/Crossbreed   (Breed mix is not guaranteed-no DNA testing done).Sex: MaleAge: 1 year  (estimated)Weight: 50.0Spayed/Neutered: YesVaccinations: Up to dateHeartworm: Negative on recent testingMicrochipped: YesBASED ON OUR OBSERVATIONS:Good with Children: Over 5Good with Dogs: YesGood with Cats: UnknownAdoption Fee: $550.00  (includes transport fee when applicable)                       $100-150 additional mandatory quarantine fee for Massachusetts residents.Location of dog currently:    Tennessee  IMPORTANT INFORMATION - Paws New England is a foster-based rescue; our dogs reside in various locations throughout the south & New England.  Adoption donations cover pre-adoption veterinary costs (including vaccinations, spay/neuter when age-appropriate, and heartworm testing/treatment when necessary), a microchip, and transportation to New England, if necessary.Donations for our young, healthy puppies and dogs support their fellow canines of advanced age or suffering from injuries and abuse, whose donations are reduced but whose veterinary costs are typically much higher.
