About Charlie

Charlie needs a great home. She's 7 years old up to date on her vaccines & microchipped. She's 100% potty trained, she's crate trained but does get anxious in a crate, I have found she does OK in one room (once comfortable in her new enviornment) while I'm at work but can get anxious when left alone too long. She also gets anxious with storms & fireworks and is on an anxiety medication as needed. Charlie needs someone who has dog experience, someone with patience & understanding of some of the issues she does have, someone with no children or MAYBE with older children (like 14 or older children) because she gets very anxious around young children, especially little boys although she is great with my 13yr old daughter but I think no children might be best. Maybe a family who is home more often or works from home or retired? She is hesitant of new people upon first meeting, especially of men but with patience she does come around usually within minutes. She would do best as an only dog in the home as she doesn't share toys or food well, BUT she's fine with cats. She has gotten along with dogs in the past who are laid back or smaller but she will need time to readjust to getting to know the joy of other dogs again slowly & again there has to be an understanding of her resource guarding. She's sweet, full of energy & love, she's very snuggly & has been spoiled with sleeping in the bed at night & snuggling on couches. She's smart and knows lots of basic commands. She LOVES long hikes, car rides & hanging her head out of the window! Charlie needs a home where she will get the attention she deserves and space all her own. Are you that home for her??
