Introducing.. cheeky Charlie!
Charlie’s Story:
Charlie is a small boy that was really struggling in the shelter in Romania.
Upon arriving at Oakwood, he was very skinny and straight away showed signs of food guarding from the other dogs.
Dogs really have to fight for survival in the shelters as they are fed minimal amounts of food which is just tossed into the pens. For this reason, Charlie has learnt to guard any food from other dogs and this is the reason he is still alive.
Charlie has also shown signs of food guarding from people too as we went to move an empty food dish so any children in the home must ensure Charlie has his own space anytime food is around and to not go near him as sadly, this would likely not end well.
Any children living in the home must be very sensible and not put Charlie into a position where he feels he will need to guard.
Bio:

With other dogs:
Charlie has so far shown us that he does not like the company of other dogs.
With cats:
Due to the severity of food guarding that he has shown with other dogs, it wouldn’t be safe for any cat to live with Charlie.
