Meet Charlie (PKA Silk)! Charlie is a 10-year-old Yellow Lab who is all about love, cuddles and the couch! At 560 lbs, this gentle older guy has become the perfect couch potato and loves being near his foster Mom. Charlie is housebroken, good with dogs and kids, loves walks, and has a very sweet, gentle personality. He even picks out his favorite toys each morning! He can be a little shy and needs patience while getting to know new people and dogs. He’d love a calm home where he can relax and be your loyal shadow. Charlie is heartworm-free after completing treatment and is ready for his forever home! Charlie has learned the 4 lb Chihuahua is not to be messed with; not sure about cats foster family does not have one and he hasn't visited any home with one as of yet. He loves to go for walks and is a gentle dog on lead, we are working on skills/manners so he doesn't get too excited when seeing other dogs while walking. He learned what a doggie door is for and takes himself outside as needed. He can also hold his bladder for about 6 hrs if needed (boarding, baths, visiting friends/family). Cool things about Charlie: he doesn't have a tail (lost prior to coming to Cody's) but the nub wags when he's happy and he has a pretty unique walk - back legs kinda do a pigeon toe thing, it is cute. He can load up (get into a vehicle) with help, knows wait, outside, potty, cookie (of course), time to eat, time for bed, come. Oh, he loves his nightly massage that helps him relax before bed. Foster Mom does not use "no" unless absolutely necessary, it is a word that scares him. Reach out to Cody's for a meet and greet - Charlie is a loving boy who just wants someone who knows how to relax and cuddle, he doesn't require lots of activity. He would shine in a home as an only pup or sibling in similar age group or fit in with an older couple that just wants a quiet but alert house buddy. He is good with his foster siblings but it may take him time to warm up to new ones. His big thing is patience, his new family will need to go slow, he can take a bit to warm up to folks and other critters sometimes.
