Meet Charlie, a delightful 6-year-old neutered male Catahoula/Border Collie mix, who is just bursting with potential and charm! 🐾 This brave boy has bravely emerged from a local hoarding situation, bringing along some emotional scars that he is learning to navigate. Despite his rocky past, Charlie is friendly, active, and oh-so-very affectionate! 🌈 Charlie absolutely adores his human friends and is incredibly gentle with children. He’s a real sweetheart! However, this precious pup does need a special environment as he can be sensitive. He thrives alongside calm, playful canine companions who can help him feel secure, as he’s no stranger to being bullied. He'll flourish when given the chance to run and play with his buddy dogs in a peaceful setting! This energetic adventurer loves exploring the woods—just imagine the fun you both could have, hiking trails and sniffing wildflowers! 🌳 On top of that, he’s well house trained and is excellent with leash walking—but if you happen to have a backyard with a dog door, oh boy, that’s the dream for him! 🏡 But, a small precaution: Charlie has some anxiety regarding loud noises, particularly thunder, which sometimes makes him a bit clingy. He would truly thrive in a rural setting, with a patient, confident owner who can help set loving boundaries. Charlie is not just another shelter dog; he’s a resilient soul deserving of love, adventure, and a second chance at happiness. So, if you’re looking to add a furry friend who brings joy and cuddles into your life, don’t wait! **Apply to adopt Charlie through the Buddy App!** He’s ready to find his forever home where he can flourish! 🥰💖
