Charlie, a seven-year-old German Shepherd mix, is currently available for adoption at the Yellowstone Valley Animal Shelter in Billings, Montana. He is a big, energetic dog who loves activity and would do best with a family that can provide him with plenty of attention and exercise.

Why it matters

The story highlights the availability of a loving, adoptable pet at the local animal shelter, which can help raise awareness and encourage potential adopters to consider giving a shelter dog a forever home.

The details

Charlie was previously adopted but had to be returned when his adoptive family's landlord reminded them of a 'no dogs allowed' policy. He is described as a handsome, playful dog who gets along well with other dogs and children, though his enthusiasm may accidentally knock over toddlers. The Yellowstone Valley Animal Shelter is hosting several upcoming events, including a Valentine's Day 'Tail-a-Gram' fundraiser and a popular Bingo with Bingo event in February.

• Charlie was picked up as a stray a while back and was quickly adopted out.
• Unfortunately, the adoptee received a reminder from their landlord of 'No Dogs Allowed,' so Charlie came back.
• February is just days away, and the shelter has a couple of fun events coming up during the Month of Love.

What they’re saying

What’s next

On Valentine's Day, the Yellowstone Valley Animal Shelter will offer 'Tail-a-Grams' starting at $20, where they'll deliver a card, candy, and a tail-wagging dog to a location. The shelter's popular Bingo with Bingo fundraiser is also scheduled for February.
