My story

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

4.5 years old
Neutered male
Gets along with other dogs and cats
Smart and well-mannered
Mellow and sweet, but nervous at first
Currently overweight due to hypothyroidism and needs to continue with diet, exercise, and medication.
Looking for a home with kids over 14 years
Housetrained

From Charlie's foster family:
"I am currently fostering Charlie and want you to know what a sweet boy he is. He has excellent house training habits and has never once made a mess of any kind. I have left him alone for as long as 9 hours on one occasion and he did really well, but prefers to be part of the action and loves to be petted and scratched. I have been taking him to a group training class and we have been working on leash training as well as some of the basic commands. Charlie has progressed immensely in his walking and socializing skills and has gone from not wanting to walk at all to wanting to go once or twice a day. He also enjoys car rides very much! He is getting the hang of “playing” and could use some encouragement, but will play tug of war or fetch for short bursts. Charlie is watching his weight, and has lost some pounds since I have had him, which has made him happier and more energetic! He is a great smart companion and very loyal, sweet and silly after he bonds. Charlie will literally be your best friend with time to warm up to you and continued patience with his learning, training and acclimation to a new home."

I have been waiting a while to find my home so my adopter can name their own adoption fee when they take me home!

The online adoption listing websites require that we choose a predominant breed or breed mix for our dogs. Visual breed identification in dogs is unreliable so for most of the dogs we are only guessing at predominant breed or breed mix. We encourage you to select your new companion by considering each dog's individual personality and pet qualities instead of relying on a breed label that is only a guess.

More about this shelter

The HSJC is located in Jefferson, Wisconsin and is a small, privately run non-profit shelter that has been in operation since 1922. We recently celebrated our 90th year of caring for dogs, cats, birds and other small animals in need. Each year, close to 1,000 pets find sanctuary at our shelter. We put forth great effort to reunite owners with lost pets and to find good new homes for those who need a second chance. We do not impose a time limit on how long a healthy, adoptable animal may stay with us as they wait to be adopted.
