Meet Waldo
Waldo is looking for a fun-loving family. He loves ball and can play fetch until his legs fall off.
While he would love an active family to play outside, go on hikes, swim, walk, or run, he is very adaptable and just as content to snuggle on the couch all day or take a nap with you, He enjoys car rides.
If he shows interest in something that seems like a toy, but it’s not, just remind him “not a toy! Here’s Waldo’s toy,” and he is very good at listening.
He knows sit, lay down, drop it and crate trained.
His one weakness is food left out where he can reach, or possibly even climb to reach. He would do best in a home that can enforce a no-human-food policy or help him master skills like “leave it” and “drop it”. He also gets a little over-enthusiastic about guests and but calms down after a few minutes, but could use some additional training not to jump as a greeting.
Waldo would be successful in many types of families.
He loves cats and okay with dogs who don’t come on too strongly, but can learn to get along with specific dogs once he gets to know them. Waldo would probably do best with kids over 10 who know better than to jump on him or pull his tail. While he showed a lot of patience he showed signs of stress like whale eye, yawning, and licking with toddlers.
Waldo is a good boy and deserves a family to love him.

Fill out a questionnaire. We will get back
With you with 72 hours and let u know if we feel it is a good match and if not why. Once the questionnaire is approved we move on to a meet and greet. Most of our screening is done “behind the scenes” but if we have concerns or questions about fencing, we may schedule a visit to the home to ensure the home is safe and dog proof. Each pet is treated on an individual basis and we feel each home may able to provide different needs. We take each case, on individually and believe in an open conversation and adoption process
