House-Trained: Yes Crate-Trained: Yes Good with Dogs: Yes Good with Cats: Yes (he may chase them or try to play with them) Good with Kids: No Energy Level: Low to medium Fence Required: Yes Special Considerations: Charlie Bean bonds strongly with ONE person and loves the ladies so a single, female-only home is required for him.

He will need a special adopter who provides patience, clear boundaries, and gentle guidance so he can feel more secure and comfortable in those moments. About Charlie Bean’s Breed: Our best guess is that Charlie Bean is a Maltese mix. Maltese dogs are affectionate, gentle, and elegant companions, best known for their silky white coats and loving personalities. They thrive in homes where they are treated as part of the family and given plenty of attention. An ideal home for a Maltese is one that provides a safe, comfortable indoor environment, as they are small and sensitive to extreme weather. They adapt well to apartments or houses, as long as they receive daily companionship, moderate exercise, and regular grooming. Maltese dogs are happiest in calm households where they can enjoy being close to their humans, often curled up on a lap or nestled on a soft blanket. Charlie Bean is a well-mannered gentleman who is completely potty trained and crate trained, though he doesn’t need a crate when left alone thanks to his respectful nature. Having been through a lot, he feels safest when his chosen human is close by and would thrive in a home where someone is around most of the time. He enjoys the outdoors but needs a fenced yard to keep him safe. Charlie needs a special home with a single, female only as he doesn't like male energy and bonds very deeply with one person. He gets along well with other dogs and has lived with a cat, though he occasionally enjoys a playful chase. On leash, he’s a pro and loves taking little walks, still showing off some moderate play energy despite his age! Charlie Bean’s Charming Highlights: • Potty and crate trained, very respectful in the home • Only likes female companionship (sorry guys!) • Good with dogs, enjoys gentle play • Loves walks and moderate playtime • Lap dog at heart, happiest being held and snuggled • Ideal home: a female companion who stays home often and has lots of love to give (may not be ideal for a first-time dog parent) Charlie Bean is a loving, easy-going companion who wants nothing more than to be by your side, offering endless cuddles and devotion. He’s the perfect match for a calm, caring home with one female owner where he can spend his days being cherished!
