Hey, friend! Charlie here.
Shepherd brains over here: I learn fast, notice everything, and would love a person with a plan.
Word is I'm a championship snuggler. I don't like to brag, but the notes don't lie.
I'm still young and full of beans, with a whole lot of love (and the occasional zoomie) saved up for the right person.
I'm on the bigger side — which, if you ask me, is just more of me to hug.
I do come with a few special needs, but please don't let that scare you off — I just need a patient friend, and I pay it back tenfold.
I'm a Oakland local, just waiting on the right person.
Here's the thing — I can't tell if we'd truly click until I know a little about you. Sign in (it's free) and I'll size up your place, say hello to any dogs you've got — or be your very first — and give you my honest read on whether we'd be a match.
Who knows — by Thanksgiving I might be napping on somebody's couch. I'd love it to be near you, one way or another.
Anyway, thank you for reading all the way to the end. Not everyone does, and I noticed. — Charlie

About Charlie
Meet Charlie, a 1-year-old, 79-pound German Shepherd and Pit Bull Terrier mix who enjoys human affection and is ready to find her next home! Loves Attention: Charlie enjoys pets and spending time with people. She may be a little anxious in new situations, but she's easy to handle and warms up with gentle encouragement. Smart Cookie: Charlie knows "sit" and takes treats gently. She walks well on leash and is ready to keep building her skills with positive reinforcement. Playgroup Pal: Charlie has shown she can enjoy calm, respectful interactions with other dogs in a supervised playgroup setting. Ready to Learn: Like many young dogs, Charlie will benefit from continued training, enrichment, and a consistent routine to help her thrive. Charlie is looking for an adult-only home where she can be the only pet. An adopter with dog experience, preferably with German Shepherds or similar breeds, will be best suited to help Charlie succeed.
