My name is Whiskey - Stratford!

Searching for your new best friend that will give you all of their attention? Good news, Whiskey is looking for the exact same thing! Whiskey is hoping to find a furrever family that shares his love of adventure and play.

~ Whiskey is looking for a home that will keep him active and give him plenty of enrichment.
~ This guy always has lots to say, so he is looking for a house with no shared walls so he does not upset his new neighbours!
~ Whiskey would like his new family to be ready to take him to at least 1 training class or sign up for a GoodPup Scholarship at the time of his adoption to help work on his basic training, manners and socialization.
~ He does not understand how big and goofy he is, due to his lack of manners and his size he is looking for a home with older children.
~ Whiskey seems to have characteristics that resemble hound type breeds. His new family should do some hound research before bringing this sweet boy home.
~ Whiskey is looking for a home with no small animals or cats due to possible prey drive.
