So, it's been awhile since my last entry.  Unfortunately, after a couple weeks of caring for Charlie, I was exhausted and needed a break, so I took Charlie back to the shelter.  After a few weeks at the shelter, Charlie's favorite volunteer decided that she would foster Charlie for a bit.  She has sent a picture below. 

While we have had a lot of interest in Charlie, we have not found the right home yet.  Please be aware that while Charlie is very smart and obedience 95% of the time, 5% of the time he is an extremely challenging teenager, so he will need owners who are experienced or very willing to learn how to work with dogs.  Also, he can still only hold it for about 3 hours or so that we know of, so keep that in mind too.  I think he could probably hold it for 4 hours in a crate, but would need to do something else for the other half the workday, like go to work with you or stay with a friend, so that he didn't get super bored.

Look how cute!
