Pretty Girl and Charlie
Love and joy and sweetness, that’s what you get with Pretty Girl, 7, and little Charlie, who is 2. This bonded pair must be adopted together. They adore each other and love to play and snuggle with each other. Pretty Girl loves everyone and Charlie likes anyone that Pretty Girl does. He has been with her since he was a puppy. Charlie likes to hide under his bed and play hide and seek with humans. Pretty Girl doesn’t fit under the bed, but she puts her head under it as if to hide with him. They are the most adorable couple.
Since the COVID-19 state of emergency, the DCSPCA adoption process has changed. If you are interested in adopting Pretty Girl and Charlie, or any of our other available pets, please visit dcspca.org. After choosing a pet and submitting the online application, we’ll review the application then contact you to make an appointment to meet the pet you want to adopt.
