About Charlie

Charlie is a spirited blend of Chocolate Lab and Dachshund, bringing a unique mix of goofiness and affection. This lovable boy measures about 1.5 years old and weighs approximately 33 lbs. Despite his size, he hasn’t quite grasped the concept of personal space. If you sit down, be prepared for him to try to claim your lap as his throne! He’s a charming little escape artist, viewing any baby gates not as obstacles but as fun challenges. Thankfully, Charlie has no intention of slipping away; he just wants to join you for some head pats and belly rubs. Charlie came from a background where food was sometimes scarce, which makes him a bit protective over his bowl. He’s learning that mealtime is a calm, happy event, filled with plenty of food. In return, he offers endless love, goofy antics, and the cutest "thank you" eyes after each meal. With his affectionate nature, Charlie is eager to become a part of your family—if you're in the Dallas/Ft Worth area, don't wait too long! Start his adoption process today!
