In early 2018 the SPCA of Westchester got a call from a local vet about a toy poodle who needed to be rescued from a neglectful owner. The SPCA’s humane law enforcement division seized Charlie Brown and their veterinary team got to work. Charlie’s front right leg had been broken and neglected, resulting in an infection. The leg couldn’t be saved and was amputated. We fostered and then adopted Charlie Brown and have been delighted to see him come out of his shell. He loves toys, playing with our other rescue dog, Romeo, and cuddling. He is now a very happy guy and is the Grand Marshal for the 2018 SPCA Walkathon!
