NO E-FENCES

Ladies and gentlemen: Walter!

 

Walter (Wally) doesn’t need much selling - look at that face!! Great personality included. What a steal.

 

This sweet little guy is in need of the perfect home. Though little, adorable, and snuggly, this 13 lb 3 year old pup can be quite the energizer bunny. He has been know to climb chain link fences of all heights.. so a privacy fence would be preferred. He also has a high prey drive so no kitties or actual energizer bunnies/small animals.

 

But high prey drive high play drive, right? Wally LOVES to play with other pups! So much, we are looking to place him in another home with a dog that loves to play as much as him. With or without other pups, Wally loves chasing balls, playing tug, and chewing on chew toys. Wally would do well with a younger human sibling as well but we’re not too sure how well he would be with toddlers.

 

Wally is potty trained and crate trained but does well out in the house alone. He’s decent on the leash but like to bark at passing dogs so he could use a little work there.

 

Walter’s ideal home would include a doggy sibling to be his best friend and very active parents that are able to give him all the stimulation and exercise his little heart desires. Though he doesn’t need daily walks, he will need daily stimulation (playing with other dogs, running out in the yard, scavenger hunts, puzzles, etc.) otherwise he will literally jump on you until you do something about it.

 

As much as Wally loves to play, he also loves to snuggle and burrow. His preferred place to sleep is under the covers snuggled up to his humans – anti-snugglers, need not apply. But the good news here is that he does not seem to shed much and has thee softest coat! What more could you ask for?

 

Are you looking for another companion that plays hard and snuggles even harder? Wally just may be your guy!
