If there's one thing Charlie loves, it's people, being with people, and being involved in whatever they are doing. He has an almost unshakable belief that everyone on the planet simply must feel the same way about him. This cheeky chops will insert himself into any and all interactions with people and other dogs. He loves his adventures to cafes and visiting friends
When you are home, Charlie prefers to spend the time in your company. Not quite a couch potato, on top of games at home and assisting with the recycling, this energetic pup lives for his two walks (of around 20-30 minutes each) a day, and does need to check out the smells, investigate interesting things in his environment and say hello to absolutely everyone he encounters so you wont set a cracking pace. In his foster home, when his humans are out of the house at work for several hours he is happy to chill with his foster brother, another greyhound. He barely moves from his bed if there are not humans at home.
On his walks, Charlie would prefer to meet smaller and medium sized dogs as well as calmer greyhounds. Some larger breeds are a bit intimidating for him. In a social setting he is good with most dogs.
Charlie has conquered stairs, happily jumps into a station wagon and toilets on request. Charlie does also enjoy curating collections of oddities he finds about the house, so if you're missing a sock, some underwear, towel, or even a pillow, you can bet Charlie's tucked it into his bed for safe keeping.
He would do well with another dog who is patient with his "HERE'S CHARLIE" routine. He would appreciate a home where his humans are prepared to provide stimulation with play and adventures. Charlie doesn’t like being home totally alone so would suit a family who are home more often than not unless there is another dog
Charlie has had part of his tail amputated. As the happiest waggiest boy his tail was injured and wasn't heeling so he had a very common procedure to shorten it.
Charlie is a dog with big feelings and some separation anxiety. He has recommenced taking Fluoxitine a common anti anxiety medication as well as Trazodone on occasion to help manage his transition into a new environment.
A gorgeous boy, inside and out, with an energetic affectionate spirit - he will make a wonderful addition to a home who will enjoy keeping his busy mind occupied and delight in his antics.
Charlie was adopted over a year ago and was cherished by his adopter but unfortunately she was hospitalised and we took Charlie back into our care. Subsequently she has died but at least we were able to assure her he would loved and cherished in our care.
