Pet of the Week: Meet Charlie!

This week's "Pet of the Week" takes a poignant turn as we introduce Charlie, a 4-year-old German Shepherd. Sadly, Charlie's journey has taken a sad and unexpected twist after his owner, unable to find him a new home, reportedly dumped him with a backpacker named Manuel.
Manuel stepped in to help after seeing an advertisement from Charlie's owner, who needed someone to care for the dog briefly. Eager to make a difference, Manuel offered to look after Charlie during this challenging time.
Having taken in the handsome dog over the weekend, the owner did not come back to collect him on the Sunday as arranged and is not responding to any attempts by Manuel or Animal Rescue Whitsunday to make contact.
Christina from Animal Rescue Whitsunday is devastated by the news, especially as she cannot take Charlie in herself due to him not being good with other dogs.
Charlie is neutered, fully vaccinated, and currently on heartworm and tick prevention.
This charming boy is not only good-looking but also well-behaved with both adults and children.
While he can be protective of his loved ones and property, his loyalty and devotion make him the perfect companion.
Charlie has since been adopted, and Animal Rescue Whitsunday is thrilled he has found his forever home.
