Here's Charlie. Abandoned and found scavenging for food. He is painfully thin even after serving his 7 days. Has suffered a few nicks along his way, but is a happy chappie. Charlie has a superb temperament. We can't really date him, but around 3 although he could be younger as he has a lot of dead downy coat in him and is very playful in a lovely way ;D He is booked in for neutering and teeth descaling on Friday. An absolute little gem of a lad. At Uncle Barney's at the mo. Walks like a dream on the lead. Wags for England ;D A gorgeous little lad, about 24 at the shoulder. ![:-*](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/kiss.png) ![](http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l223/Mimsmum/P1013535.jpg) ![](http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l223/Mimsmum/P1013534.jpg)

I just had to drop him off at Uncle Barneys and run. ![::)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/eyesroll.png) Sorry Barney. ![](http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l223/Mimsmum/P1013541.jpg) Getting to know Winnie ;D ![](http://i97.photobucket.com/albums/l223/Mimsmum/P1013540.jpg)

Lovely boy he looks very individual with his white whiskers He's a super lad Jean - very affectionate, a real happy chappy with a tail in constant motion, & he's getting on fine with the resident crew. ![8-)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/cool.png)
He does need building up, though, he's very scrawny, & I've just brushed him & his coat is coming out in handfuls. He'll be a really lovely fella once he's in decent condition - a real showstopper! ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)
Charlie is microchipped & vaxed, & as Jenny has said, he'll be going to the vets to be neutered & have his teeth descaled on Friday morning.
Barney x
Edited to add:
Yes Jules, he is a brindle! ;D

Charlie was an absolute poppet on the lead when we went for our evening constitutional - he walked sedately with the two Greys on one side, unlike the Lurcher pair on t'other! ![::)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/eyesroll.png)
He cannot be said to be sedate when treats such as smoked sausage are on offer, though, & will need to learn some manners. ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)
Having said that, I can't fault him otherwise on our short acquaintance thus far. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)
He's socialising well with the permanent residents, & seems to have taken a particular shine to Annie.

The pics don't give any real indication of just how bony the lad is - his building up regime will commence with pasta after tomorrow morning's exercise.

Oh, isn't he gorgeous? Could you give him a hug from me, please?! (Why do I always want every dog that is ever up for rehoming?)

![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) Awww! He's gorgeous! And I don't need to say the other word. The "B" word. ;D Testicles are capable of complicating most things, in my experience. Not that I'm bitter and twisted or anything... ![8-)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/cool.png)

Let's hope they find the little bugger lower than Spot's ![](http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l138/doggedasdoesit/Spot/20070926mages004.jpg) I see from the date code on the photo that Spot's op was just under a year ago

OMG just look at that face, it's gorgeous. He needs a good few kilos on him though ![:-[](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/embarrassed.png) but he'll soon be back to his right weight and happy too ;D
