Meet Wheatley! He is a 1 yr old neutered male Anatolian Shepherd that weighs 60lbs. He came in as a stray on 4/8. He was adopted from the shelter on 2/19, but his owners have decided not to reclaim him. Wheatley is a high-spirited pup, with plenty of puppy-like energy! He always has a smile on his face and is happy to greet his human companions! He walks ok on a leash. He can become excited at times and may try to jump just to be close, asking for a pet or most importantly wanting to give you a kiss. He will need some additional training to let him know he can receive plenty without jumping. Wheatley knows the sit and paw command too! He is a very handsome boy that loves to run through the shelter yard to investigate. He will chase balls and play with squeaky toys sometimes. He would love to find his own active loving family that could take him on jogs or hiking. Wheatley has been well cared for and will need to have a secured backyard to play in, but most importantly he is an indoor dog. After an exciting day of going for a walk/play he will enjoy taking long naps on his dog bed inside or cuddling close to his family members. Tho Wheatley has lived with another dog, we do always ask if you have a dog in your home please ask the shelter for a dog test to ensure your pup would be compatible. This fun and smart pup deserves another chance at finding a home where his people will stay committed to him and give him the TLC he wants and needs.
