Sir Charles has had a rough past, and it shows. He wasn’t properly trained, socialized, or loved, and as a result, he carries some deep emotional scars. He’s been overlooked time and time again—he was originally found as a stray and taken to a city shelter. He was then briefly adopted, but then quickly returned to the shelter by his, and then passed over when a second adoption fell through. After spending a month at the shelter, he was in danger of being put down, so he then came to us, and now, eight months later, not a single person has seriously inquired about him.
We won’t sugarcoat it—Sir Charles has his challenges. He has a strong-willed, “alpha” personality, doesn’t always get along with other dogs, and can be unpredictable. He struggles with sudden movements, change, and unfamiliar situations, so he’s not the kind of dog you can take out to eat or shopping. He thrives on structure, routine, and predictability. He’s also very energetic and has a possessive streak when it comes to his toys, making a home without children or other pets the best fit for him.
But despite his challenges, we know there’s potential in Sir Charles. He needs an adopter who is fully committed to his training, socialization, and emotional decompression—someone who won’t give up on him when things get tough. With patience, structure, and the right environment, he has a chance to build confidence, open up, and become the dog he was meant to be.
At around four years old, Sir Charles still has plenty of time to grow and learn. He needs someone who sees past his rough edges and is ready to put in the work to help him succeed. If you’re up for the challenge and willing to help Sir Charles shine, please inquire today!

More about this rescue
Pug Nation Rescue of Los Angeles is a registered 501c3 non-profit organization dedicated to the rescue, care, and placement of abandoned, neglected, unwanted, displaced, and abused pugs. Our goal is to find every homeless pug a forever home; if we cannot do that, we pledge to provide a comfortable and loving place for sick or unwanted pugs to live out their lives. Our Board of five and numerous volunteers are passionate about Pug Rescue and live by our motto of “One Pug at a Time”. We feel that through our efforts we can change many of these forgotten Pug’s lives. In order to find our Pugs a home as soon as possible, we hold at least three adoption fairs a month and also organize a number of fundraising events, including the annual Pugtacular festival and Legendary Bingo at Hamburger Mary’s in West Hollywood. These events and on-line fundraising have provided the money to help pay for vet treatments, medicine and loving care at our Pug Station. We rely on the generosity of our supporters through donations and participation in our fundraising activities. If you would like to make a donation, find out about the next event, become a volunteer, foster, or adopt your own rescue pug, you are in the right place! You can also follow us on Facebook and twitter, there is always something going on and new pugs needing your help.
