Description
🚨 PLEASE HELP US FIND CHARLIE 🚨 Our landscaper unexpectedly left our side gate open and our beloved dog, Charlie, wandered out. A neighbor reported seeing a woman pick him up in a white or silver Prius (or similar vehicle) shortly afterward. Charlie is 17 years old, microchipped, deaf, and he has a growth on his eye. He needs his proper s and special care. He is a senior dog and is deeply loved — he is not abandoned and is part of our family. We are hoping whoever picked him up believed they were helping. If you have Charlie or know where he is, please return him — no questions asked. We just want him home safely. We have already contacted local shelters and veterinary offices, searched the area, and are putting up flyers. Please check Ring cameras, security footage, neighborhood groups, yards, garages, and nearby areas. Even the smallest lead could help bring Charlie home. 🐾 Name: Charlie 🐾 Age: 17 years old 🐾 Microchipped: Yes 🐾 Medical Needs: Deaf, has a growth on his eye, requires his prescribed s and routine care 📍 Last Seen: Azara St / Mapleton St, Murrieta, CA 📅 Date: May 23 🕔 Time: Around 5:20 PM 📞 Contact: Please share.

Charlie Acosta's Owner Says
UPDATE: CHARLIE HAS BEEN FOUND AND IS HOME SAFE ❤️🐾🙏 Words cannot express the amount of gratitude and love we feel right now. Charlie was found — a woman had picked him up and brought him to the shelter, and we have now been reunited with our sweet boy. After a very emotional and stressful time searching, making calls, posting everywhere, checking shelters, and not knowing where he was, our hearts are finally full again. We want to sincerely THANK every single person who shared our posts, commented, sent prayers, checked cameras, looked around your neighborhoods, reached out with resources, and went out of your way to repost Charlie on other pages and networks. The kindness and support from complete strangers and our community truly helped bring our baby home. Charlie is 17 years old, deaf, microchipped, and needs his s — so having him back safely means more than words can ever say. This reminded us how powerful community can be and how many caring people still exist in this world. From the bottom of our hearts — thank you. We love you all and appreciate every single one of you. 🙏💗🐾
