Story
There are many, many Maltipoo lovers in the world today. This snuggly breed mix is considered to be very loyal and loving companions as well as absolutely gorgeous! Their popularity is due to their consistently great temperaments, overall intelligence and super-sweetness. There's also no question that they're strikingly beautiful with their fluffy, cottony coats and soft, expressive eyes.
Charlie is a beautiful and sweet as can be Maltese with a bit of Poodle in the mix for extra cuteness. These wonderful dogs are known, among other things, for their luxurious non-shedding coats (a great choice for those with allergy concerns) , sweet temperaments and loving and cuddly personalities. Charlie will require a lifelong commitment to periodic grooming and excellent nutrition. A daily salmon oil supplement along with premium food is a great choice for a gorgeous coat and a very long, healthy life.
Charlie is just about 2 - 3 years old (this is such a great age..past babyish behaviors with many, many active and healthy years ahead). Our sweet guy weighs 13 lbs, a perfect weight for long walks on Colorado's breathtaking trails, back yard fun and sharing the bed or couch after a fun day of play, walks and tons of loving.
Charlie will be initially shy due to all the changes in his life We feel it's important that Charlie's forever family has the time and energy to give to this adorable guy. With tons of love, nurturing and clear boundaries/ leadership provided by his humans, Charlie will emerge as a well-adjusted and very bonded companion. He's so gorgeous both inside and out and deserves a family that appreciates the gifts of his awesome temperament and is willing to show him boundaries through love, kindness and time spent.
We would like to have Charlie join a family that is retired or works from a home-based office. Charlie loves his people with all his heart and is too sensitive to be left alone for the long hours of a family that works full-time outside of the home.
We are searching for a very loving, dog-crazy family for Charlie. He would be thrilled to spend his days in the company of his people cuddling and playing. Another like-sized, gentle and fun doggie playmate would be perfect for Charlie. He (like all dogs) is happier and therefore more well-behaved if he's fulfilled with exercise and fun followed by snuggling with his favorite people. It would be a family that spend lots of time at home (or chooses to take a sweet dog with them to dog-friendly situations) that would provide a great forever home for Charlie. He would enjoy the time spent together and would blossom with a family that considers their dog a valued and full-time member of their family.
Charlie enjoys his relationships! While Charlie enjoys humans of all ages, we would prefer to place him in a home with only older dog-crazy kids (tail pulling, awkward handling or rough treatment will lead to a dog that's fearful of children). Older, loving kids can be best friends with Charlie and active participants in a training regimen that's so important to a dog's development as a well-behaved adult dog.
Charlie will be up to date on his vetting/vaccinations to be in line with our commitment to adopting out only healthy dogs. He has also been neutered to fulfill our commitment to a euthanasia-free future.
Charlie will be arriving on transport in the Denver area on Saturday 12/28/2024. Applications are currently being accepted for this very sweet, loving and loyal best friend. An application can be found at http://farfels.com/farfels-rescue/adoption-form/. If interested, please fill out completely and submit.
**PLEASE NOTE**. If you're truly interested in adopting Charlie, please be sure to submit our adoption application. It's the only initial tool that we have to determine a great match for this very deserving dog. We're sorry, but in many circumstances, we're unable to get back to those that don't submit a Farfel's Farm adoption application. Thanks very much for choosing rescue.
