Charlie is a loving, kind, and eager-to-please little sweetheart! She is also a tri-pawed! Having 3 legs does not slow her down at all; she loves walks and learning tricks. She is a special girl who would be a great family dog for an active and patient household. She would really love to be in a home where people are with her most of the day. Charlie will cry for a while when she is left alone so she is not a good match for multi-unit apartment living.
- Affectionate, smart, well-mannered girl - Moderate energy level, loves to play fetch and go on daily walks - Housetrained and crate-trained - Knows basic commands - Can be selective about dog friends. She did not like sharing her toys and treats with the last dog in her home so may be best as an only pet. No cats for Charlie. - 5 years old, 58 pounds - Suggested for children age 8 and up - Spayed, vaccinated, microchipped
A note from Charlie`s foster Dad:
`I feel so thankful and blessed to be the current foster dad to sweet amazing Charlie! After several years of fostering, Charlie is not only the smartest but also has the best manners.
Charlie loves to solve puzzles and is insanely aware of her surroundings. She is incredibly loyal and loves sitting with her people, happily taking up a small place on your bed or on the floor next to you and doesn`t make a peep or move an inch!
Don`t for a second think that her three-leg disability slows her down! I walk/jog with her daily at a brisk pace, and she loves retrieving balls as long as you`re willing.
She LOVES people and especially children! Her herding instincts are evident when we walk past kids waiting for the bus, when she continues to look back at them as if saying `I need to gather those children up and take care of them.`
Charlie is going to make some very lucky family incredibly happy!`
Please note dog visits are by appointment to ensure staff and space availability so we can make the best match possible. Interested in Charlie or another dog? Please visit our adoption process page at https://www.oahs.org/dog-adoption-process/ and fill out an application. Questions? Email dog@oahs.org or call (920) 424-2128 option 3, option 3.

Thank you for considering adoption for your next companion animal! When you adopt a pet, you save a life. Our goal is to find "forever" homes for our animals. Our trained staff wants to help you choose an animal to match your family and lifestyle so everyone is happy!
Questions? Call 920.424.2128
Note: OAHS asks potential adopters to please meet the pet they are interested in adopting before they fill out an adoption application. We currently can not take applications online.
Because adding a pet to your family is a big responsibility, we ask all adopters be willing to do the following:
Talk to an adoptions counselor about what characteristics you're looking for in a companion.
Spend quality time visiting with the pet you are thinking about adopting. All members of the household will be asked to visit with the animal prior to adoption*.
Participate in a scheduled meet and greet if you have animals in your home and apply for an animal of the same species (for dog and rabbit adoptions). A meet-and-greet can help with a comfortable transition for all animals.
Ensure current animals in the home are spayed or neutered.*
Complete a simple one-page application form. It can take 1-2 business days to process the application. Applicants will be notified immediately if any problems arise with the application.
Meet with an adoption specialist the day you bring your new companion home to review paperwork and sign adoption papers.
Note: Adoptions are not first-come-first-serve but rather based on matchmaking. Same-day adoptions are typically not possible but if you are located such a distance outside of Oshkosh that makes more than one visit difficult please call 920.424.2128 for options. OAHS expects animals adopted will live inside the home with their families (exceptions are made for cats in our barn program).
* Any existing animals in the household of the same species should be spayed or neutered prior to bringing the new animal home due to hormone-induced behavior issues that may occur (exceptions for medical reasons may apply).
