Charlie von Cole is a very handsome 4 year old German Shepherd. This lovely boy with the handsome coat and the softest ears is the dearest dog. Charlie has some of that typical shepherd aloofness when first meeting new people but, with some kind words and gentle petting, his tail starts to wag and his attention is all yours. While getting some head rubs, he will sit and listen to all your stories over and over and still want to hear more. Charlie has an easy energy and does not ask for much from his people. He enjoys being in the company of friendly dogs. He greats them politely on leash and off; he is always so happy to be part of the scrum, so much so that he pays no mind when other dogs come to say hello to you. Charlie is a sweet boy who will fit well into many homes but what he is really looking for is a home that understands that true love takes time and a bit of work -- and with Charlie, it is worth it.
