A friend of mine recently passed away and left behind his 7 year old dog Charlie. Charlie is 83 pounds, housebroken, neutered, has all his shots, doesn't chew, good with kids, people. He is living with another friend who has a dog and two cats and is fine with them. A fenced yard would be best for some exercise. Other than that he is a couch potatoe and would probably be a pretty loyal companion. If interested, contact Tony Fletcher 267-304-1133 for more details.
All are welcome, all players playing in the spring should attend.
