Charger is a big handsome boy with a wild and wolfy look that is accentuated by his dark face and light eyes. Despite his intimidating look, Charger is the definition of a cuddle buddy! He is a super sweet, laid back boy who is happiest when he’s close to his family and even better if he’s being touched - and yes, that even means getting his nails cut or his feet hair trimmed. He just thrives on any one-on-one attention.

When he isn’t busy with his people, Charger loves to play. He is content to play by himself with a ball, or chew a bone (often upside down on his back and holding the bone in his mouth with his feet) but if he has the option of interacting with another dog, that would be his preference. Charger loves other dogs, big or little, he’s always friendly and eager to meet them. Since by nature, Charger is quite submissive, he’s always done wonderfully at making new canine friends. Charger is a little more reluctant to make new human friends, preferring the company of his immediate family, but given enough time he warms up to new people and will show his sweet affectionate side.

Charger is a softy at heart, he’s submissive and doesn’t have a real high pain tolerance so he doesn’t need much of a correction. Sometimes his enthusiasm will get the best of him and he will need a few reminders to mind the rules. But he’s always very apologetic and will quickly try to appease you by coming to you and asking for affection by leaning into you and staring up at you with his bright eyes and a big smile. It is nearly impossible to stay upset with him and that’s the way he likes it.

Charger was a very confident and social puppy during his first few months of life with us before leaving to his first home. Unfortunately, it turned out that home was not a good fit for him after all and we asked to have him returned to us. Since then we’ve been working on his manners and rebuilding his confidence. He still has a ways to go before he is back to the happy-go-lucky puppy unphased by anything that we remember him to be, but he’s made great strides and we feel comfortable in saying he will do well in a new forever home.
