About Charlie

Meet Charlie, a 6.5-year-old pittie mix with a heart full of love, currently seeking his forever home. Weighing in at 75 pounds, he embodies the best of both worlds: the calm demeanor of a senior dog paired with a youthful energy that keeps him ready for adventures. Charlie adores his walks, relishes hikes, and is always eager to explore with his humans. This affectionate companion is dog, cat, and kid-friendly, making him a great addition to any family. He was returned to the rescue simply because his previous family expected a lower-energy dog. Charlie, however, surprises everyone with his pep and enthusiasm for life! At home, he's low-maintenance and content to relax after some daily exercise, making him the ideal housemate. He needs a family that appreciates his active spirit while also enjoying the sweetness that comes with an older dog. With a little structure and love, Charlie will thrive in a nurturing environment. He’s currently fostered in Santa Monica, CA and is available for adoption anywhere in the USA. Let's help Charlie find his forever home this time!
