About Charlie

Charlie is a charming little 2-year-old chihuahua dachshund mix looking for a forever home. He arrived at the shelter on November 8 and is eager to leave the kennel behind. Quiet inside his kennel, Charlie knows how to sit on command and enjoys his walks. Treats are his motivators, and he'll happily work for them. He's up to date on vaccinations and will be neutered and microchipped before going to his new home. As he settles into shelter life, we don't yet know how Charlie behaves around children or other pets. A meet-and-greet at the shelter can help determine compatibility. If you're looking for a sweet companion, come find Charlie in kennel 322; his ID is 23984. Let's give him the loving home he deserves!
