About Charlotte

Charlotte is a petite lab mix who needs time and patience to come out of her shell. She prefers to meet new people and dogs a few times before she opens up, but once she trusts you, she’s genuinely affectionate and eager for companionship. Charlotte is playful, smart, crate trained, and walks nicely on leash. Tug-of-war is her favorite, and she enjoys toys and canine companions, though slow introductions work best. She’s a tagalong type: ready for any adventure but happiest just being with her person. An experienced adopter is best due to her initial trust issues. Charlotte is spayed, microchipped, and her vaccines are up to date. She requires a fenced yard and does not attend public adoption events; private meet-and-greets can be arranged. Charlotte does not get along with cats but enjoys the company of other dogs. She’s house trained and looking for someone with patience, consistency, and warmth to be her best friend. Lets make it official, apply to adopt!
