ic shelter after suffering a trauma (his injuries indicate that he was likely hit by a car) that left him with broken ribs on the left side of his little body. Nothing will dampen his gentle spirit, however, and one of his favorite things to do is snuggle and soak up life in the lap of luxury! Charlie is estimated to be 9 years of age and is neutered, microchipped and current on his vaccines. X-rays done at the time of his neuter showed that he was healing up quite well, and based on how much love he has to give and how well he gets around, it seems he's feeling great! Charlie is not expected to have any long-term effects of his rib fractures, and this little guy is ready to find a great forever home. He'd do fantastic in an adult home or one with small-dog savvy teenagers and he's been great with his foster mom's resident dogs. He's an absolute charmer who would love nothing more than to wiggle his way into your heart (give him 2.2 seconds and his spell has been cast!). CCHS is able to help deserving dogs like Charlie, as well as in-need cats, through our Phinny Fund for Emergency Medical and Special Needs Animals. If you'd like to help us save the lives of these deserving friends, please consider donating to the Phinny Fund today through our donation link. Thank you! Location: Foster Home

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
