Here is Charlie, 

Charlie is a collie cross recentley saved from being pts in the pound 

Charlie is safe with Dogwatch in a foster home and this is what the foster father says about Charlie 

Health

Diarrhea at first which I will put down to nerves as it is better already. Howling first night but better second night.  Enjoyed his first bath without problems and skin and coat looking much better.

Walks

Walks beside me having established the master position by always walking through doors and gates first with him behind me when on the lead.   He is learning to stay and come which is still taking some bribing with treats but getting there.  Can be off the lead in grassy areas.  Has been with other dogs without any concern but I fear he may respond to an aggressive dog so still practicing caution. 

House

Has learned not to go upstairs, very easily.  Currently lying near my feet, does not like to be too far away from me which will ease with time and assurance.  Did mess in the house first day but been good since. Good with children.  Was initially territorial but eased that by introducing him to people before they walked in and now friends and family can walk in the house with ease.

This is a good family dog.
