Wallaby (or Wally for short) was found wandering in a common dumping ground behind the Sweetwater Veterinary Hospital in Tennessee. A kind, Good Samaritan reached out to us for help with this guy! Wallaby is a happy, silly guy with lots of energy. He gets along well with dogs outside but can be a bit possessive inside the house if he has pent up energy or doesn’t get enough mental and physical stimulation. Wallaby also has shoulder dysplasia which can cause some pain near his neck/shoulder area. On 3 different occasions, Wally nipped out of pain when his neck area was touched. His pain levels and medical condition are better controlled now with daily joint supplements and anti-inflammatory medicine as needed. However, because of this diagnosis, we feel he would also do best in a home with older kids who can respect his space. He would also do best in a home where he is not confined into a small space for long periods of time (kennel) as this causes Wally more pain.
Wallaby is a high energy dog and since he is a poodle mix, he will require regular grooming and brushing! He will also require not only physical stimulation, but mental stimulation as well. This includes activities such as treat balls and puzzles, snuffle mats, hiking/walking at different, exciting places for new smells! He also looooooves to play fetch! He is in his happiest place when he is outside!
Wally is also prone to hot spots and we will be getting more information on this from the vet!

More about this rescue
WHY & HOW
Let us start by telling you the "WHY" and "HOW" woofwoof fosters was created. Our founder
moved to TN in February of 2019. Since moving here, she has seen a lot of
posts on Facebook and other social media sites about missing, neglected, homeless, abused dogs, and
overcrowded shelters and rescues. Our founder and her family rented houses while
searching for a place to buy that would accommodate animals. In 2022, they finally found
a home to buy! Now that they have a home and some land, they want to do what they can
to help! The dream is that one day rescue organizations won't be needed and that all
humans will see these beautiful furbabies for what they are….. love in the purest form. It
is part of woofwoof foster's mission to make this happen.
