About Charlotte

Meet Charlotte, a 4-year-old chocolate lab mix living in a foster home. Charlotte is on a journey to build confidence through her enrollment in LIFT University, a program designed to help dogs like her manage their energy and navigate new experiences. While she may start shy, with a little patience, her vibrant personality shines through. She adores stuffy toys and is a true people dog, thriving in the company of her humans. Charlotte’s ideal home is quiet, with no shared living spaces, as she prefers a low-traffic environment. She’ll need to meet any resident dogs before adoption and would do best in a household with kids aged six and up, as she can be nervous around loud noises. For her safety, Charlotte requires a martingale collar, which can be found at Wayside Waifs. If you're ready to offer a loving, patient home, don’t hesitate to reach out. Love, Charlotte.
