Charlie

Approximately 1 year old, Charlie is a handsome, large, black and white, pit bull terrier-mix. He’s friendly, sweet, a bit shy, and he appears to be dog friendly. He will do best with loving, attentive owner(s) who will spend time with him, include him in their activities, give him regular exercise and play in a fenced area or on a leash, give obedience training and, of course, a good forever home. For more about Charlie, ID No. 1772, visit Facebook’s ENC Shelter Dogs page. Pay him a visit; he’s available at the shelter.
