Read my Story! and Share! JUST DON’T CALL ME CHUCK! That’s all I ask. Not much, really. You may call me Charles, Sir Charles, Lord Charly.... even Charlene....just don’t call me Chuck! That’s my only adoption request. My name is correctly spelled Charlie. Now, I had a very serious discussion with the Namer of Names about this spelling. Being an English major at GDU—Great Dogs University—I asked...no...begged...that my name be spelled Charly, for my very favorite author is John Steinbeck....for one essential reason. He, of course, wrote “Travels with Charly: In Search of America.” Now granted: Charly was a French Standard Poodle; it was a 1960 road trip; I’ve never traveled 10,000 miles as John and Charly did. BUT I do have an adventurous spirit (more about that soon......hang on.....); I would make an excellent travel companion (I’m particularly fond of pick-up trucks, where I perch in the passenger seat—alert, watching for squirrels and rabbits, sniffing the air for the aroma of lavender, honeysuckle, and goose poop.) Also, I am literate, a great conversationalist, and very polite; I never interrupt you. Now! Back to that adventurous spirit thing: Only one caveat (literate, see?): do not adopt me if you have a Koi pond. I love to dive into the pond—I AM a Lab—and chase those little suckers—I AM A LAB! They are a challenge to snag: slippery, fast, slimy. But I’m proud to say I have a few Koi trophies. So, that’s the only thing I can think of. Other than my Koi Fetish, I am an extremely handsome specimen of my breed, have a lustrous black coat, and a lovable and loving nature. I’ve still got some puppy in me, so I won’t be lazing around your house for a while. I love all things water: creeks, lakes, showers, and bathtubs. May I join you in your bubble bath? Ha! My bad. So consider taking a road trip to Muldrow, Oklahoma, and come see Charlie. People come from all over the U.S. to adopt from Ahimsa Rescue. We can take a road trip back to...California? Maine? North Dakota?—whilst I read to you from “Travels with Charly.” What an adventure we will have. Just don’t call me Chuck, and don’t have a Koi pond. Simple? You betcha!
