Meet Charlie – A Gentle Soul Ready to Bloom
Hi, I’m Charlie, a three-year-old Chihuahua/Terrier mix with a heart full of hope. I currently weigh 10 lbs so yes, I am a little guy. I came from a hoarding situation where I lived with 29 other dogs, and because we were very neglected, I didn’t know what it felt like to be loved or cared for by humans.
But everything changed when I went to live with my foster family. Each day, I warm up a little more. I’m still a bit nervous, but I love being near my humans, and I’m learning that people can be kind and safe.
I get along well with other dogs and am slowly discovering the joy of toys—something completely new to me! My foster mom says I’m a sweet, smart boy who’s trying very hard. I’m not fully housebroken yet, but I’m making great progress and improving every day.
I’m looking for a patient, understanding family who will give me the time I need to trust and blossom. Because I’m still learning about the world, a home without small children would be best for me. With love, patience, and gentle guidance, I promise I will become the perfect companion to join you on all of life’s adventures.
I am up-to-date on all my shots, neutered, and microchipped so I am ready to go home to my new family.

I can’t wait to meet my forever family.
