Walker is a sweet and sensitive boy who is looking for a patient home where he can take his time settling in and building trust. While he may be a little reserved at first, once he feels comfortable, his happy personality starts to shine through with big tail wags, adorable head tilts, and a love for quiet affection. This handsome guy enjoys ear scratches, butt scratches, relaxing on the couch, and spending time near his favorite people. Walker already knows “sit,” takes treats nicely, and walks well on a leash. He has an alert and protective nature, making him very aware of his surroundings, but he also has a calm side that enjoys downtime and cozy companionship. Because he can be slow to warm up, Walker would do best in a quieter home environment with teens or older children who can respect his space and boundaries. One important thing to know about Walker is that he can be sensitive about having his mouth handled or people getting too much “in his business,” and he may become nippy if he feels uncomfortable. A patient family willing to give him time, gentle guidance, and respect for his personal space will help him continue gaining confidence and feeling secure. With his tan and white speckled coat, fluffy floppy ears, short little legs, and silky fur, Walker has plenty of charm to match his unique personality. For the right home, he’ll be a loyal companion who forms a deep bond and quietly becomes your very best friend.
