About Waylon

Meet Waylon! Like his namesake, Waylon Jennings, this spirited 11-month-old mini Golden/Aussie mix has already shown resilience. He faced quite a journey as a puppy, having been given away on the roadside when his mother was evicted. Fortunately, he was rescued by a kind soul named Beth and is now receiving the care he deserves at BCAWS. This little outlaw weighs about 30 pounds and is ready to find a loving home where he can settle down. Waylon brings a playful spirit, and his favorite tune is “I’m a Rambling Man,” which he loves to ‘sing’ while posing for pictures. He gets along well with both dogs and children, making him an excellent addition to a family. If you're interested in meeting Waylon, reach out to Kristin at (865) 599-4262. He's ready for a new adventure and a permanent home!
