Every life is filled with highs and lows, but mine? Mostly lows. I don't mean that in a negative way. I just mean that, with these little legs, I live my life six inches off the ground. My name is Charlie, but Charlie is a really common name and I'm not the only Charlie in this shelter, so they usually call me "Low-Rider Charlie" or "Long-Short Charlie." I occasionally get "Old Man Charlie" even though, at only seven years old, I'm literally the youngest Charlie here. I just have geezer vibes.
That's another "low" in my life: I'm very low-key. I don't do anything fast. I'm one heck of a couch potato (I'm even potato-shaped- 52 lb.) Oh, you want to go for a walk? Well, you have fun with that. I'll stay home and make sure this dog bed doesn't fly away. I can be convinced to go for a mosey now and then, but you might have to bribe me with the promise of a snack and a bird watching break in the middle.
I'm not one to generate chaos, but I do expect the same courtesy of those around me. I'd prefer not to live in a home with other animals or little kids. Just adults and me, please!
So come and get me. Let's do nothing together. It's my favorite activity.
My name is Charlie, I'm seven years old, and I'm neutered, up to date on shots, and fully vetted. I'm available for adoption through
Open Door Animal Sanctuary
