My personality

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Meet Charlie!,,

This boy was found on a busy highway with no ID tag or microchip. He was just a 2.2 pound baby when this happened. He was so scared that day, he cried and ate so much on rescue day, perhaps he suffered hunger and was scared of the cars. Since his rescue he moved in with a foster mom that has other dogs, he immediately got along great with every body!

At 9 months old (estimated date of birth is mid Jan 2024) he is 25 pounds, this male pup is very social to people and other dogs. He is very well behaved, non destructive. Good with kids and curious about cats.

Every time his foster goes to the kibble bag to serve him his meal, he gets sooo excited! He eats super fast, so he needs a slow eating bowl, and if more food is available, he goes after it! So his future family will have to be careful to avoid overeating.

Likes kongs and carrots! He gets hungry and let's you know by making noises, he likes to be in a feeding schedule.

Charlie enjoys toys, and although he is very food driven, he is not food aggressive,

He is very obedient, when his foster says NO, he follows direction right away.

He is medium energy, and loves to play with his K9 friends.

He loves to be petted, super sweet and loving.

This boy deserves a loving home that will care for him for the rest of his life. He already had a rough start. Please, if you are interested, please submit your application at www.drwb.org

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Step 1
Fill application at our website

Step 2
Submit your adoption application to us. It may take a few days before your application is processed and you receive a response back.

Step 3
If your application is approved, we will call you to schedule a "Meet & Greet".

If we have an upcoming adoption event.

We will set a time for you to come meet the dog that day, usually on Saturdays. Please make sure you take any family members and other dogs to see how the initial introduction goes.

If we DON’T have an upcoming adoption event.

And you have other dogs:
We will schedule to meet you, any family members, and other dogs near your home first; this makes the entry into the new home easier for the dog and for your family.

And you don’t have any other dogs:
We will schedule to meet you and any family members at your home.

Step 4
Meet your prospective new pet. Spend time with them and see how it goes.

Step 5
If your "Meet & Greet" goes well and you wish to adopt; you will complete an adoption contract at the appointment. We ask for a suggested adoption donation to help us cover spay/neutering, shots, medical treatment, food, supplies and temporary care. These suggested donation amounts only partially cover the cost of expenses involved. Your donation is tax deductible. It’s that easy!

Step 6
Take your new best friend home! Congratulations – you have saved a special life.

What if the adoption doesn't work out?
You can return any of our dogs as we don't want to see them turned into a shelter. The application process helps prevent such an issue, so it's very important that you are honest when answering the questions.

Not all dogs are compatible in all situations, so it is imperative that you are forthright in the application process to find the right match. However, be sure you are ready to make a full commitment to adopting a dog, whether a puppy or an adult.

It can take up to a few weeks for a dog to really adjust to his/her new environment. A lot really depends on the dog's past so the prospect of adopting should be well-thought-out & the commitment should be taken seriously.

Go meet their pets

Our pets are all cared for in foster homes. While in foster care, their foster family is making sure they receive lots of tender loving care and have any veterinary needs taken care of. This also gives the foster family an opportunity to learn about the dog's personality, so we can better assist you in selecting a dog that will be the best fit for you and your family.
