Pet of the Week: Charlie-2!

Apr 2, 2014

Charlie-2 is this week’s Pet of the Week! He’s a six year old, neutered, coonhound mix and is ready for his Forever Family to take him home. Charlie-2 is a sweet boy and incredibly intelligent! He’s fairly obedient, comes when he’s called and knows a few commands. Charlie-2 has a lot of energy and is a strong boy; he requires a dedicated owner who can give him the exercise he needs. He’s great with kids and doesn’t seem bothered by other dogs, but as always, we recommend a meet and greet. If you or someone you know would like to be a part of Charlie-2’s Forever Family please stop by our shelter to meet him Monday – Saturday between 10:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.
