CHARLIE - ENGLISH BULLDOG / MIXED DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: English Bulldog / Mixed. *** COURTESY LISTING *** PLEASE CALL OR E-MAIL THE PERSON LISTED. DO NOT CONTACT WARF AS WE HAVE NO FURTHER INFO. Description from the current foster. This is Ms. Charlie. She is a gorgeous fawn and white English Bulldog. Charlie is approximately 2-4 years old. We don't know for sure as her "owners" had little to no information about her. She was found wandering the streets at Travis AFB and a good Samaritan rescued her and tried to find her owner. Once her owners were located (they were not looking for her) they did not want her back. The husband replied, "My wife HATES her. Once she had our son she wanted nothing to do with the dog anymore. Please keep her as you can give her a better life." The finders of Charlie could not keep her. The rescues and shelters in northern CA were full. The current fosters drove to CA to rescue her and hopefully include her in their pack. Charlie loves to be pet and loved on gently. She can be timid at first with new people. She is also potty and crate trained. However, we only put her in her crate for naps and bedtime. She loves to lay out in the sun, go for walks, and play tug with rope style toys. We walk her twice a day. Charlie does get along fine with both of our other dogs, but her food aggression is serious. We must feed everyone separately. She has bitten us over food guarding/aggression. Most of her aggression bites were minimal and more of a "back off" warning. Because she is very "treat" motivated, we hired a dog trainer to help us with her aggression. The training session went well and the practice sessions we do with her at home have gone well too. However, one of the bites recently was bad and because of this we cannot keep her. We feel she would do best in a home with no other dogs and with someone who can continue focusing on her training. Potty Trained- YES Crate Trained- YES Spayed- YES Vaccinated - YES FEEDING- AM/PM - This is important with her food aggression, so she doesn't feel "hungry."
