Meet Charlotte! This gorgeous gal sits at a comfy 49 lbs., and each pound is jam-packed full of endless love and affection. Charlotte would thrive in a home that is ready and willing to take her on plenty of outdoorsy adventures! She loves to be around her people and is ready to spend every second of every day being your replacement shadow if you'll let her. She can get a bit excited while on leash, so a sturdy grip and a comfortable harness to help direct her on her daily strolls is a must. If you've got a resident dog at home, a dog-to-dog is required before adoption or audition to ensure Charlotte will be a good fit for your pup. If Charlotte seems like the dog of your dreams, we'd love for you to come in and meet her!

ABOUT: MIXED BREED DOG BREED
The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
