About Charlie

Meet Charlie, an 11-year-old Beagle and Basset Hound mix who’s mastered the art of being a perfect companion. Despite his age, Charlie is full of love and has a gentle spirit. He thrives on being near you, whether it’s following you around while you garden or curling up under the piano as you play. He has a friendly demeanor and has warmed the hearts of everyone who visits his foster home. Great with his Chihuahua-mix buddies, Charlie enters any room with a charming, ‘Hi, I’m Charlie! Let’s be friends!’ This clever boy is fully housebroken and knows how to communicate when it’s time for bathroom breaks. He enjoys leisurely walks, typically going a mile while sniffing out cool scents along the way. A little finicky with food, he likes to keep things interesting. At his age, Charlie isn’t looking for a rigorous lifestyle. He prefers a nice stroll now and then, lounging nearby, and cozying up for cuddles. If you’re in search of a kind, easygoing companion who just wants to be where you are, Charlie could be your perfect match. If you have space on your bed, he’d love to share that too!
