About Charlie Bones
Charlie Bones, also known as Charles Skeleton, comes across as sweet and devoted once he’s comfortable. He’s missing a leg, but that doesn't dampen his enthusiasm for car rides, walks, or gnawing on a good chew. Patience goes a long way with him; though he’s wary with new people—especially men—or sudden noises, he's shown he can warm up to staff who give him time. Charlie has some understandable baggage post-amputation, including reactions to movement and the need for gentle encouragement if he freezes on walks. Charlie finds a lot of joy in small things: bully sticks, cheesy treats, squeaky toys, puzzles in the grass, rolling around outdoors, and a soft fan to keep cool. He enjoys brushing, chasing bubbles, and curling up on inviting beds. He knows several useful commands and could keep learning with positive reinforcement. Charlie’s future would be brighter with someone ready to help him build confidence and manage anxiety, possibly alongside a calm dog friend. He’s loyal, quirky, and ready for a second chance.
