Charlie #995

Age: 1.5 years old

Color & Breed: Tricolor Beagle

Gender: Neutered Male

Weight: 35 pounds

Adoption Fee: $500

Click here to apply for Charlie

  • Do you love Snoopy but find your favorite characters are the kids? Charlie #995 is the best of both worlds and has double the main character energy! This 2-year-old beagle is 35 pounds of sniffing and snooping adorableness. He loves playing with other dogs and in a pile full of toys. He adores people and soaks up all the kisses. Every time Charlie sees a cat it’s like a super fan meeting a celebrity. While he isn’t going to hurt them, he may overwhelm them with his enthusiasm!

    Charlie is great on a leash and would appreciate an active family to keep his beagle body and mind busy. He would most likely thrive at doggie daycare. He can be a little mouthy when playing so a family with older kids would be better. He’s eager to learn although can be stubborn as a hound when he forms an opinion.

    Charlie doesn’t mind being in a crate when his foster family is gone and has been crated up to 4 hours. He is doing well on a potty schedule, but is working on mastering his potty skills. He’d do best with a fenced-in yard, since his hound sense of smell sometimes gets the better of him.

Winston #1004 & Roxie #1005 adoption pending

Age: 7 & 5 years old

Color & Breed: Red & White and Tricolor Bassets

Gender: Neutered Male & Spayed Female

Weight: 49 & 50 pounds

Adoption Fee: $1,000

  • Winston #1004 and Roxie #1005 are a bonded pair who feel very strongly about each other. They get along well with other dogs but prefer to spend time gazing longingly into each other’s saggy basset eyes.

    Picture an old retired couple in your head. Then, open your eyes and look directly at Winston and Roxie, because they’re the hound version of that. These two prefer warm weather and going to leisurely, meandering walks. They enjoy sharing food from each other’s bowls. They’re not particularly energetic but should probably be lured outdoors from time to time (especially when dog accessories are being shown on QVC or when their stories are on.)

    These two are housetrained and are comfortable using a doggy door or asking to go outside. They don’t need to be crated in their foster home but will sometimes go into a crate for an afternoon nap. They can do stairs and would likely be okay on a tie-out if their potential future home doesn’t have a fenced-in yard.
