Charlie & Jake
Gender: Male
Age: 4 & 3.5 Years Spayed/Neutered: Yes Breed: Flat Coated Retriever/Lab mix, Jack Russel/King Charles Cocker Spaniel Weight: 70 & 26 Located in: Fremont Kind of home this pet currently resides in: Currently in a larger home with a good-sized backyard in the downtown of a small city. One person home where a 3-year-old granddaughter visits often. Additional Information: Charlie and Jake get along with other dogs, and probably would do okay with cats. From their owner "They like everyone. Charlie prefers to stay away from toddlers but enjoys older kids. Neither have ever been aggressive in any way towards my granddaughter. They have been very patient with her .They are best with an owner with previous dog experience. If you are an individual or couple, then you should be very active outdoors; however, neither dog likes water. They need and deserve an owner(s) that will play with them and get them a lot of exercise and socialization (both people and other dogs). They are used to being in their playpen all day while I work, but also would be fine without a pen. I just use them to contain the hair somewhat. They do not do well in crates and even though Charlie can easily jump over the pen (and knows it) he is a good boy and doesn’t. They are both current on shots and microchipped. Charlie (Flat-Coated Retriever/Lab/Shiba Inu/? Mix), 69 lbs, 4 years old January 1st. Charlie is black with a bit of a grey beard and a patch of white on his chest. He has the best disposition. He just wants to be around you. He loves to cuddle up on the couch. He enjoys walks and sometimes likes to have a job to do so I give him a stick to carry while on our walks. When he plays, he will mouth your hand but never bite. There hasn’t been a dog he’s met that he doesn’t like, and the same goes for people. He prefers not to interact with my 3yr old grandchild but has never been aggressive and puts up with a lot before he will walk away. He has a great smile and likes to have conversations with you. He has picked up a bad habit from his little brother and likes to stand on his hind legs when meeting people or gets excited seeing you. Typically, he only stands and doesn’t actually get up on you. Training is easy as he is intelligent and extremely food-driven. The last two summers he’s had severe allergies and if not treated right away he will develop a skin infection from scratching. Being both a Flat-Coated Retriever and Lab he sheds a lot. Brushing needs to be done often. If you don’t like dog hair, this is not a match. However, he truly is the best dog in the world. Jake (Jack Russel Terrier/King Charles Cocker Spaniel mix), 29 lbs, turns 4 July 31st. Jake is black and tan with a strip of white on his chest. He is full of energy and is always ready to go, go, go. He adores Charlie and most times will insist on cuddling with him if he’s not on you. He’s not great with personal boundaries and you may find yourself in a nose-to-nose staring contest with him at times. He is my 3yr old’s best friend. Even though she’s been really rough with him in the past he has not once ever so much as growled at her. He also loves both people and other dogs. He’s very good at fetch. He likes to chew, so toys, etc are a must. If you give him the opportunity, he will use your flip-flop as a chew toy. While Jake likes to be taken to parks and trails, he does get carsick. I’ve found if you let him sit in the front seat and pet him it helps." Click HERE to call their owner Tasha. Click HERE to email their owner Tasha. |
