Could YOU give Britain’s loneliest dog a home? ‘Shy but sweet’ crossbreed named Charlie is still seeking a new family after more than 500 days in a shelter
One of Britain’s loneliest dogs, nine-year-old crossbreed Charlie, is still waiting for his forever home after more than 500 days in a shelter.
‘Shy but sweet pup’ Charlie arrived at the RSPCA Brent Knoll Animal Centre in Somerset, back in September 2021 after living in a home where there was domestic abuse and confrontation.
The dog’s profile reads: ‘Its safe to say that this boy is a special lad and IS the favourite in the team! Charlie is loving life at the Animal Centre and joins the team every morning for tea break.
‘However, as much as we all adore Charlie, we would love nothing better than to see him in a wonderful new home.
‘Please have a read of his rehoming profile below and apply if you feel he would be ideal for you. He is not a fan of other dogs but if you are looking for a wonderful companion then he is the bestest boy!’

The charity revealed that Charlie is looking for an experienced owner who can help with his anxieties and give him a chance to build his confidence.
His online profile explained that he can be nervous around unfamiliar people, especially men, because his ‘previous male owner was abusive’.
‘With unfamiliar people Charlie will bark and reverse away, he manages his anxiety well and can be quick to regain confidence and relax,’ added the profile.

Charlie is apparently highly affectionate with people he’s familiar with and craves contact.
He is also described as playful – he enjoys squeaky toys, as well as running around and rolling around on the floor with his toys.
