About Wilmer

Wilmer’s got the kind of charm that fills a room. He’s a medium-sized adult, likely with some Australian Shepherd and Beagle in his mix, sporting a short, tricolor coat. When he’s out for a romp, you’ll see nothing but energy, enthusiasm, and a tail that never quits. The two things Wilmer does best: spreading good vibes and making people smile. He’s the sort to turn a simple walk into an adventure and would really light up in a home that invites play as part of daily life. Picture him darting through the grass, each leap powered by sheer happiness. With his history, Wilmer’s well-suited for a backyard and would especially appreciate adopters who can match his playfulness. While he gets along with dogs and cats, he’s not the best fit for households with young children. House trained, neutered, and vaccinated, Wilmer’s ready for his next chapter—and while he has some special needs, he’s eager to find the right match. He’s new to rescue, so his full story will come out with time. To meet this one-of-a-kind pup, you’ll need to visit him in person in Eureka, MO. They are waiting with paws crossed! Apply now!
