Charlie is Your Calaveras County Animal Services Pet of the Week & Social Distancing Buddy
Posted by: thepinetree on 04/01/2020 02:14 PM
San Andreas, CA...Meet Charlie, a Bichon Poodle mix estimated to be between 3 and 4 years of age. Weighing just over 17 pounds, Charlie is the perfect size for a smaller home and travel. A friendly fellow with excellent leash manners, Charlie very much enjoys his walks and the opportunity to explore. He likes attention and was exceptionally tolerant of a lengthy grooming and bath (though we’re sure you can tell he could use a bit more in that department). Charlie also plays happily with other small dogs, both male and female. His one issue is that he guards his food so a home without young children is a must. Someone who could help Charlie learn to feel more secure and work with him to modify this behavior would be ideal.
