Charlie is a gentle giant – he loves people, but can also be protective and an attentive watchdog – he can sense something a mile away.  He is an easy going lad, who happily goes into his crate without a peep.  He loves a smooch whenever you are able to spare one.  The staff has grown rather attached to this boy.  He enjoys walking and running, but not so interested in ball play.  He will take a bone any day. 

Charlie would be best placed in a home without other dogs or if there are other dogs, with a person who is an extremely good dog handler.  He has shown signs of aggression, but has been with a trainer for the past 6 weeks.  With training and rehoming this dog will be phenomenal.
