Story
Charlie is a 4-year-old French Bulldog/Bullmastiff mix, born on 10/13/2020, and is up to date on her rabies vaccine. She is a fun, sweet, and playful dog but has a strong protective instinct over the home. She has had a few close calls with delivery drivers and strangers approaching the house when family members are not present. Due to having small children, we believe it’s best to find her a home that better suits her needs and provides the time and structure she deserves. We are looking for an active household with experience in training and managing protective behaviors. Charlie does have allergies that occasionally require an allergy shot to keep her paws from bothering her. She would thrive in a home where she can get the attention, activity, and training she needs.

Story
First - the adoption fee will be sent to the Michigan Humane Society to help with all the animals they rescue. I have had this sweet, kiss giving girl for several months now. I got her thru a friend of a friend when her one and only owner passed and the owner's family could not keep the dog. They thought she was about 8 or 9 years old. She was raised with an invisible fencing system. I do not have one. I do not have a fenced in yard. I take her on walks during the day. I am a Senior citizen and I am not steady on my feet and I have poor balance. She has pulled me down once and I am afraid of it happening again. She is so sweet and loves to sit next to you and cuddle. She does not realize her strength. She would do great with a house full of kids or a Senior with a fenced yard. She should be in a cat free household. She loves to play fetch and actually brings the ball back & gives it to you! Please help me find a good home for this sweet girl
