Here's what the humans have to say about me:
*Courtesy Listing*
Hi! My name is Wilson and I'm a two-year-old Terrier mix. I think two is a great age because I'm still just starting out in life but I've grown out of some of those crazy puppy antics. Not to brag too much, but I am a cool dude! I'm pretty popular at the place I'm staying now, but I'm ready for a real home and a committed relationship with the right person where we can look out for each other. I've had some training so I am house-broken and I know basic commands like "sit" and "stay" and I'm smart so I can learn more. My picture is here, so you can see if you think I'm handsome like a lot of people say. People have also commented on how I'm not a "barker" and more of the "strong and silent" type. I just don't see the need to bark all of the time over every little thing. I do bark when I'm trying to tell you something important though. Like most guys, I like sports! Let's go outside and throw a ball around, I love doing that! I'm strong and healthy and I'm up to date with all my shots. As for my physique, I'm a muscular 52 pounds. I am vigorous, so I'd probably do better in a home without delicate family members, you know, just to be on the safe side. It would be great if I could have a yard to romp around in too!
I am well behaved with people, children, and other dogs; as long as they understand I still have bit of youthful exuberance in my personality. I am not great with cats because they run when chased and I am always ready for some playful fun. I don’t bark at the kennel and am not too rambunctious. My liveliness is no doubt attributable to being a mix of three very active breeds: bull terrier, pointer, and pit bull terrier. My trainer is confident that I will be a great family dog, and he would be happy to provide additional (free) training, when I make the transition from a shelter kennel to a home environment. I am currently living at a training facility as I had to leave OCHS because it was just too hard a life.
