About Wally

PLEASE NOTE: This dog is currently out of state but will be transported to Massachusetts shortly with no additional travel costs. Roughly 90% of our dogs are adopted prior to their transport up to MA and 10% are adopted locally. Meet Wally! Wally is approximately 5 months old, 21lb currently, and he is a German Shepherd mix! His life was on the line (threatening to be shot) and a good samaritan had to step in to give him a fresh start. He then contracted parvo but has fully recovered. In his foster home, he is working hard on his house training, crate-training, and leash walking. He could join households with kids 10+, cats and other dogs. His foster says, "Wally will make a great addition to his new family. He is still a puppy, but he is learning very quickly. He has not pottied in his crate yet. When we take him outside, he will potty right away and then go play. He has had one accident in the house, but I think he was trying to tell me he needed to go out. We are working on watching his cues to go outside. Wally is also very food motivated. He is learning to sit to get his meals and to get a treat. He likes to play fetch with a ball and will bring it back to you. He does like cats and tries to play with my cats. He will run around them, but not really chase them. My cats are very dog friendly so they do not hit him or swipe at him at all. They try to play too. He loves to play with other dogs. We are always there when he does play with them. He is also started to play tug-of-war with the dogs. He knows where all the dog toys are and will pick out which one he wants to play with next. He has learned how to jump on the couch to cuddle with us and give us way too many kisses, but we love it. Wally is a puppy and is not always sure what his legs do yet if he gets to running too fast. The family that adopts Wally will truly have a one in 1 million dog. Wally only wants love and to give love." He is available for adoption in N Dartmouth on June 19th or possibly sooner.
