Charlie
Charlie is a six year old male black and white Cocker Spaniel that is being surrendered by his owner. He actually belonged to the owners mother but sadly she contracted Alzheimer’s and had to go into a memory care facility. The owner already has two dogs and her landlord won’t allow her to keep Charlie.
Charlie is neutered and weighs around 45 pounds, so he’s a little overweight. He’s currently on a diet plan to help him reduce. The vet would like to see him get down to 35 pounds. He is house trained and is allowed to roam free in the home when no one is there. He is not crate trained, but is leash trained. He is up to date on his vaccinations and will be microchipped before being adopted. He’s looking for a forever home with lots of love and attention.

Update from Charlie’s foster mom:
This is a real gentleman of a dog. He has a beautiful friendly face and is black and white. His personality is wonderfully mellow and I would say submissive – he always defers to my 2 females aged 4 and 19 and has NEVER once been aggressive toward them. He likes to lounge around ; always cuddling up to or near his masters feet, but as he is only 4 he does need to be walked. He is a steady strider that you can have a “fast walk” with, but I would not call him an athletic “running type” of dog. He does not yank on the leash and stays with you. He has the distinctive English “high stepping” way of walking.
One thing that is important to him is he likes to spend his spare time outside soaking up the sun – he will go outside several times a day and just sit. Therefore he needs a home with a back yard.
Other things: is not interested in toys or dog biscuits but LOVES peanut butter as a treat. He takes it in a gentle manner.He has a hearty appitite for dry food and drinks lots of water. He seems to have been trained not to jump up on couches or people.(He doesnt do it) He knows Sit and Stay and DEFINITELY knows his name. All in all this is just the sweetest bundle of love that would work out great as a family or single persons pet. (PS I don’t have a cat and neither do any of my neighbors so I don’t know how he is with them)
