Charmander is ready to be your adventure buddy!
8/27/25 Foster Home Feedback:Now that we have gotten to spend more time with our Charmander, aka Mander man, we have learned even more about this handsome pup! While he will gladly be friends with a smaller sibling, he would thrive more with a fur sibling the same size as or bigger than him. Someone he does not want to be friends with is the vacuum cleaner. Whenever we use the vacuum, Charmander has to be in a different room. Luckily he is beginning to like his kennel, so he feels safe in there whenever we do bring out his sworn enemy!
He has now been on two different road trips. While he would rather be in the driver’s seat with you, he also will tolerate lying down with a bone in the back. The potty training is going great! The accidents have become almost nonexistent. We are still working on listening, though. Charmander is a very smart pup with some selective listening. Along with being smart, he is very curious. Every noise or movement in the house gets his full attention. Allowing him to sniff almost everything the first time he is in a new area is how he becomes comfortable. Once he is comfortable, be prepared to be swarmed cuddles and occasional kisses!
7/25/25 Foster Home Feedback: For the last month, Charmander has been the light of our household. Since he has been here, Charmander has developed a few different nicknames. Char, Char-Char, and Mander. If you are looking for a loyal, cuddle-bug of a companion, Charmander is your guy. While he enjoys a good, long nap on the biggest blanket in the house, he also is a big fan of play time. We are still working on staying on his side of the rope during tug-a-war, but we are getting there.
When his foster parents are at work, Charmander does okay in the kennel, but he is not a fan of being in there when people are at home. We are still working on potty training as well. Charmander is almost fully potty trained, but still has an accident every once in a while.
Charmander would thrive in both a single fur baby home, or a multiple member fur family. The last play date he had went very well and they could have run in circles forever! There is not much noise that comes out of this pup. He occasionally whines when he thinks he’s not getting enough attention but is easily redirected when told no. Charmander is a pup who is so full of love and would make a perfect addition to any family!
6/17/25 Volunteer Feedback: I wish there was a function on our website to feel this guy, he is soooo soft. You will just have to take my word for it until you can meet him yourself. Charmander walks great on a leash, although he has been known to chew on it so he has a chain leash now. He calmly watches other dogs as they pass by, but if you follow them, he does pull. Charmander is unbothered by other leashed dogs barking at him and continues going on his way. Alert and attentive; he watches where he is going but remembers to check in with people. Charmander calmly waits if the walker is chatting with another person and lays sweetly in the car. This little guy is quite the gentle gem. He loves flowing water and I would imagine he would love to drink from a hose. Charmander is an inquisitive, charming, and tolerant pup, always eager to learn and ready to find his forever home.
5/11/25 Foster Home Feedback: Charmander is a very sweet and loving boy. Ho loves people. He likes other dogs but his energy can be a bit much for them . He loves to play and go on walks. Charmander is not a big fan of being alone in the yard and prefers access to his human at all times. He is still working on potty training but he has come a long way. Charmander is also still working on manners like not counter surfing and not jumping on people but he is making improvements.
