About Charles

Meet Charles! He is a 1.5-year-old Chihuahua, weighing 15 pounds, who was abandoned at an apartment complex.

Charles gets along well with dogs, cats, and children, making him a great addition to any family. He appears to be house trained, is quiet, and is crate trained. Charles is up to date on vaccinations and is on flea and heartworm prevention. Though he's not altered yet, he has a neuter appointment scheduled for a Wednesday in mid-October. If he's adopted before then, his new owner will need to bring him to this appointment. An adoption fee and contract are required. Your new best friend is waiting for you. Apply today!
