Oh, dear friends, let me introduce you to the charming, one-of-a-kind soul known as Charles! 🎉 This 12-year-old Toy Poodle is a delightful personality wrapped in fluffy fur! But, oh my, did he have a tough start. Our boy came to us looking like a matted mess, unrecognizable and unsure. What could have happened in his past? We may never know, but one thing is for certain—his future is bright and deserving of love! ✨ Charles isn’t the kind of pup who craves cuddling on the couch—nope, he’s not a lap dog, and that’s perfectly okay! This quirky little gentleman is discovering his own rhythm and beginning to trust humans again, allowing the occasional head pet and even a few sweet hand licks. Imagine the joy of being a gentle soul like Charles, who needs just a little space and understanding. Picture this: Charles, cozy in his playpen, snoring like a little bear as he drifts into dreamland. 💤 How adorable is that? You see, he’s a creature of routine, and he loves to be near his people, like an ever-watchful little shadow. His pacing and wandering keep him quite active for a senior, adding just a sprinkle of spunk to his days! 🌟 When nature calls, he's learned to cue up, but he truly shines when someone notices those signs—just a little nudge of support! Charles isn’t a fan of small children, and with his special needs—like that little hiccup in his vision and hearing—an adult-only home would be the ticket to his happiness! He may prefer to avoid the furniture (don't want him taking a tumble!), but he does fine with other dogs and even gives rabbits a friendly pass. 🐰 How sweet is that? And don’t let his past dental issues deter you; our focused little friend eats soft food with all the charm of a connoisseur! Charles isn’t about the fast life—he’s about the sweet, slow moments that make a home feel like home. ❤️ If you’re patient and observant, you’ll find that Charles has a heart of gold just waiting to shine in the right environment. So if you’re someone who appreciates the beauty in quirkiness and wants to give a deserving pup like Charles a loving forever home, I urge you to apply through the Buddy App—because this special boy is ready to win your heart! Let’s make his dreams come true, one snore and soft paw at a time! 🌈
