Owner Info: Charlie is a deaf and partially blind pit bull who was pulled from a kill shelter when he was 8 months old. He was adopted to a family but they returned him to the rescue due to family changes. The rescue is looking for a loving home for Charlie since they do not feel that they are equipped to properly help him with his needs. Charlie is an indoor dog who is crated. He is house-broken and leash-trained. He is descried as nervous and good with women. Charlie’s caregiver said he bonded with her very quickly. She said he doesn’t like small dogs and he did well in the home with two dogs his size but not the small one. There were fights but no skin was broken. He doesn’t have a problem with cats. Charlie is not possessive of toys, treat, or food. Charlie’s caregiver says he loves to be outside and run and play. The kennel life is too much for him unless he has an outside run. She said “He loves to play fetch but loses the toy easily if not right in front of him.” She wants us to know he is a very sweet loving dog that needs to feel a part of a family. I would love to find him a home as an only dog but I also think that will time and proper handling he would love to have a big dog to play with too.”
