Charliee Brown
Accepting applications for adoption.
CHARLIEE BROWN WOULD BE BEST SUITED TO A HOME WHERE THERE ARE NO KIDS. We think he would be happiest with an older couple or person who lives a quieter life, loves to cuddle and spoil their animals (did someone say cheese?!). If this sounds like you, please read on about sweet Charliee Brown…
Charliee Brown is a 3.75 year old male, neutered, long hair chihuahua. He loves to snuggle on the couch with you. He’s a sucker for a cozy or heated blanket. Charliee is accustomed to sleeping in his humans’ bed, and prefers to sleep under the covers or on a pillow. He appreciates a good belly rub too! He loves to play when the mood strikes… Especially with his blue ball or his snoopy toy. He is really good at fetch!
Charliee knows basic commands, such as sit, lay down, shake a paw, and gentle. He will even let you put a treat on his nose and wait for you to let him have it. Charliee enjoys walks, although his preference is that they aren’t too long. But he would go twice a day for sure! He really wants to be with his people. He is calm in the car, but doesn’t like to be left alone in it. In his previous life, he camped and adventured all around, but we think he prefers a quieter lifestyle. He would be happy to adventure with you, so long as you don’t leave him alone somewhere strange. Charliee is house trained, doesn’t chew things he shouldn’t, you can leave his food out all day and he will eat when he wants, he loves his little house, and hates clothes.
Recently, Charliee has shown some guarding of his high reward treats. He has shown aggression towards children in the past, he does not like people in his face, and he is not overly dog friendly - he barks and barks, but doesn’t show teeth or anything. Recently, he has met a few dogs his size and been quite interested. Perhaps there’s hope! Charliee could get along with another dog companion in the home, if they’re small and match his demeanor. He is not really tested with cats - he’s curious. Charliee tends to bark when new people come over and move about, but he does eventually warm up (bribery!). But his new home must be understanding of this quirk.
Charliee is a really good dog and can’t wait to meet his furever home. If you feel Charliee might be a good fit for your home, please fill out an application for adoption on our website, kamloopsruffstartrescue.com. Please note we give priority to Kamloops and neighbouring communities. We do not ship dogs.
