Charles

Body
Our pet of the week is Charles, a healthy 6-year-old Blue Healer mix breed. Vetted and neutered, he is one of eight siblings, who loves attention and to play. He gets along with other animals, is around cats and horses as well as other dogs. He is shy at first but then opens and shows his true colors. He has been abused in the past so it does take him some time to warm up but that is a normal reaction for any animal that has been abused in the past. His sponsor is Ross Harper, one of our dedicated Volunteers and Super Star Supporters. “Together We Can Make a Difference!” - Lucky Two Times Animal Sanctuary
