Meet Charlie

Charlie is a 4-month-old puppy who has been through more in her short life than most dogs face in a lifetime. When she was only a few weeks old, she was attacked by another dog, and her front leg had to be amputated. Through all of it, Charlie has stayed the sweetest, most gentle puppy you will ever meet. She doesn't let anything slow her down. She gets around well on her remaining front leg, though she tires easily, so long walks aren't her thing. She's more of a "patio princess" who loves soaking up the sun outside, then settling in for a cuddle. Key Facts Age: 4 months Weight: Currently 11 lbs; expected to be 40-45 lbs full grown Health: Recovering from another round of Kennel Cough, but doing well! She can handle short stairs and short walks, though she'd rather cuddle on your lap or in her bed. Crate Training: Crate trained and sleeps well Potty Training: Still a work in progress, but she's learning fast! Kids & Other Dogs: Does great with all people and with other dogs. She is currently in a foster home with toddlers and another dog, and she absolutely loves them all! She loves everyone and is gentle and respectful. Personality: Sweet, calm, and happy to be wherever you are The adoption fee of $550 will include spay/neuter, microchip, age-appropriate/required vaccinations, treatment for heartworm, and any other necessary medical treatment to ensure a healthy new pup for your family.
