Wade is a middle aged gent, with a laid back and sweet personality. He can easily be coaxed into going on a walk with you, but his favorite activity is just relaxing on the sofa with his people. (We're pretty sure a daily morning jog is not on Wade's list of top things to do). A little game of tug is not out of the question, and he loves to toss his toys around before settling down for a good chew session (preferably near his human friends). While with his foster family they said that Wade is the perfect blend of laid back and playfulness.
Initially Wade was a little bit shy at mealtime in his foster home. But after just a few weeks, he came out of his shell and turned into quite the foodie. Although he has a keen interest in "people food", he only takes what is offered, and does so with grace, dignity, and a very gentle touch. His foster family discovered that his favorite human offerings are things like hamburger or chicken; although, he certainly won't turn his nose up at peanut butter or pumpkin either. He's also been known to dig up carrots out of the garden, and finds that they are a pretty tasty treat once he shakes the dirt off of them.
When in a foster home, he seems to meet everyone with a wagging tail and gets along well with men, women, and low key teenagers. Wade would be a perfect fit for a home that is laid back and has lots of down time. He's house broken, crate trained, and content to entertain himself while his human family members are away during the workday, or even overnight. Overall, Wade is a pretty low maintenance pup, with lots of love to give.
Wade really enjoyed living with his foster family, and longs for a loving forever family to share his life and love with. Could you be it?
