About Waldo

Meet Waldo, your sunshine-loving, big-hearted buddy. This friendly mix of German Shepherd and Rottweiler, weighing around 70 pounds, has been stuck in a boarding facility for too long. Now, he's eagerly waiting for a forever home where he can truly thrive. Waldo adores people and is great with children, always greeting them with a wagging tail and a joyful spirit. He’s playful and happiest when outside, whether he’s running around, exploring the yard, or lounging in the grass. While he gets along wonderfully with dogs of medium to large size, he doesn’t do well with small dogs or cats. Despite his long wait, Waldo's joyful personality shines bright. He just needs someone to give him a chance—to escape the confines of boarding life and embrace a world filled with love, play, and companionship.
