Charles is a stunning tricolor Australian Shepherd who may be a bit shy at first, but his graceful, demure nature will win you over in no time. At around 4 years old, he’s in the prime of his life—handsome, calm, and full of quiet wisdom. With his beautiful coat of brown, white, and tan, and his soulful eyes, Charles is as handsome on the outside as he is on the inside. He carries himself with a mindful, calm demeanor, always taking in his surroundings with quiet thoughtfulness.
As an Australian Shepherd, Charles has the potential for a lot of energy once he feels comfortable and confident in his environment. While he may start off on the quieter side, once he bonds with his humans, you’ll see his playful and energetic nature emerge. Australian Shepherds are known for their intelligence, agility, and zest for life, and Charles is no exception. With time and patience, he will display his love for play, walks, and mental stimulation, making him a wonderful companion for an active household.

- Playtime and mental stimulation: Once he’s settled in, Charles loves engaging in activities that challenge his mind and body, such as walks, fetch, or puzzle toys.
What Charles is looking for in a home:
- A calm, patient family or individual who understands his shy side and can provide him with the space and time he needs to feel safe.
- Someone who can offer him an active environment where he can express his energy once he feels comfortable, with walks, playtime, and mental challenges.
