PAWS Atlanta says Charlotte has waited 5 years for a home
The 7-year-old dog is housetrained, knows many cues and needs a home without other dogs; a secret admirer covered her fee.
PAWS Atlanta calls Charlotte its "pup cup queen." Her foster describes her as loving, happy and affectionate, and she nuzzles people who stop petting her too soon.
Charlotte likes belly rubs, hugs, naps and a fetch session. At 7 years old, she needs one round of zoomies a day before relaxing. She learns routines quickly, is housetrained and walks well on leash.
She does not like other dogs and could not live in a home with one. The shelter says she has waited 5 years and is taking applications, and her adoption fee is already covered.

Open the post“Meet our pup cup queen: Charlotte 👸 Charlotte is loving life in foster and has shown us just how resilient shelter dogs can be, even after spending a long time waiting for a home. Her foster describes her as loving, happy, and affectionate. 🥰 If you stop petting her too soon, she'll nuzzle you with her nose to get you to start back up! There's few things she likes more than belly rubs, hugs, and napping right next to you. If there's not much room for her on the couch, she'll make room! Charlotte also loves a good romp around the yard or a fetch session. But at 7 years old, she doesn't need too much active time. After her once-daily zoomies, she's ready to relax. Charlotte is SUPER smart, which means she does amazing in her training sessions. 💡 She learns routines quickly and knows a ton of cues. She's probably smarter than most of us, and we're not upset about it. She's great in the home and is housetrained and walks well on leash. Basically, this girl comes with all the important software pre-installed. Charlotte's biggest obstacle is that she doesn't like other dogs. She's able to go for walks in the neighborhood, but she wouldn't be able to live in a home with one. Charlotte has waited 5 years to be the star of someone's life, and we still believe she can find the right adopter. If you're interested in meeting her, apply now! Her adoption fee is already covered by a secret admirer. 🔗 in bio or pawsatlanta.org/dogs”
