About Walnut
Meet Walnut, a delightful 5-year-old terrier mix weighing in at 11 pounds. Small in size yet bursting with character, he brings joy and cheer to everyone around him. Walnut takes his time making new friends, but once you're in his circle, he shows endless affection. He’s a playful companion who loves games of fetch but also knows how to relax at your feet when it's downtime. Walnut thrives in a home where someone is around most of the day; he doesn’t do well alone for extended periods. He has impeccable house manners, is crate trained, and responds well to commands like sit and stay. He’s alert and will let you know if someone comes to visit but respects boundaries at home. Although he’s been primarily a one-person dog, he might adapt well to older, dog-savvy kids given some gentle socialization. Two short walks per day and a few potty breaks keep him happy, and he enjoys the company of another dog while playing in a secure yard. Walnut loves to learn and would thrive in activities that boost his confidence, like agility training. Don't miss out on the chance to welcome this affectionate, cheerful friend into your home!
