Story
Meet Wyatt Earp — the kind of dog who makes you feel instantly calmer just by existing in your general vicinity. Wyatt is well-tempered and easygoing in a way that feels almost unfair. Like… sir, how are you this emotionally regulated when the rest of us are one dropped phone away from spiraling? That said, he’s not a cardboard cutout of a dog. Wyatt has charm for days — just delivered softly, politely, and without demanding an audience. He enjoys being around his people, quietly keeping tabs on things, soaking up affection, and offering companionship without needing to be the center of attention 24/7. If you’re looking for a companion who won’t turn your life upside down, steal your soul, or make you apologize to your neighbors, Wyatt Earp might just be your perfect match. He’s steady, sweet, emotionally supportive, and proof that sometimes the best dogs aren’t the wild ones—they’re the ones who gently steal your heart while you’re busy relaxing next to them.
Wyatt Earp is a 4-month-old, 33-lb male Border Collie/Lab mix who has never once known hardship, drama, or a bad day in his life — and it shows. Wyatt came to us when his mama arrived heavily pregnant, and from the moment he was born, life has been nothing but love, full bellies, and the strong belief that the world is a pretty great place and everyone in it is probably a friend. Wyatt has mastered the art of going with the flow. He’s not easily rattled, doesn’t overthink things, and carries himself with the calm assurance of a puppy who knows he’s loved and expects life to continue being kind to him. He’s the type who adjusts quickly, rolls with whatever the day brings, and somehow makes everything feel a little more relaxed just by being present.
Wyatt Earp’s social résumé is honestly impressive for someone who is four months old and still occasionally surprised by his own feet. When it comes to other dogs, Wyatt is very much the friendly extrovert. He’s playful, social, and has already figured out the household routine like he’s been paying rent for years. Say “Let’s eat!” and he will sprint to his crate. He’s not just cute; he’s efficient. Wyatt thrives with dog friends, loves playtime, and learns quickly where he belongs in the group without being pushy or dramatic about it. Tiny humans haven’t been a regular part of his daily life either, but when Wyatt did briefly meet a younger kiddo, he was completely smitten. No biting, no wild behavior, just pure puppy admiration and gentle curiosity. He gave off strong “I love you and would like to follow you everywhere” energy, which is about as good as it gets for a growing pup. He’s sweet, respectful, and clearly the kind of dog who will grow up thinking kids are wonderful little humans who exist primarily to be adored. When it comes to people in general, Wyatt is friendly but has priorities—and those priorities are usually other dogs. He’s happy to accept some lap time, but let’s be clear: if there’s a dog nearby who wants to play, that dog is getting his full attention. Humans are great, dogs are better, and Wyatt sees no reason to pretend otherwise. He enjoys people, likes being around them, and is affectionate in his own way, but he’s not clingy or needy. He’s the kind of puppy who checks in, makes sure you’re still there, and then goes back to living his best social life. As for cats, we regret to inform you that Wyatt has no formal opinions at this time. His cat résumé is currently blank, untouched, and free of controversy. But between you and me, he would probably most certainly turn his charm to them and try his best to befriend them. And honestly...he might just succeed!
Wyatt Earp’s energy level can best be described as selectively athletic. He will absolutely play when the mood strikes — romping, trotting, investigating, and generally looking like a very capable puppy — but if given even the slightest opportunity to nap, he will take it without hesitation or guilt. He believes in balance. Why burn unnecessary calories when there may be a nap scheduled later? Road trip–wise, he’d be the kind of traveler who plays for a bit, then crashes hard, completely unbothered by the journey, the destination, or your playlist choices. Adventure-wise, Wyatt has decided his true calling is the noble pursuit of The Best Stick. Trails? Coffee shops? Scenic overlooks? Maybe someday. Right now, he’s far more invested in combing the yard for the perfect stick — one that is definitely better than the last stick and must be carried proudly for approximately twelve seconds before being abandoned for a better one. He enjoys exploring, but he’s not demanding constant outings. He’s equally content doing puppy things at home, where snacks and naps are conveniently located. Temperament-wise, Wyatt is extremely well-tempered, easygoing, and just plain pleasant. He’s not anxious, not reactive, and not over-the-top. He’s confident without being pushy, playful without being wild, and gentle without being timid. He’s the kind of puppy who makes you forget you’re living with a baby animal because he’s so naturally balanced. His favorite activities include running for the ball… and then immediately stopping to socialize instead of returning it. Fetch, in his mind, is more of a group activity than a solo sport. Why bring the ball back when there are friends to greet and important conversations to have? Wyatt truly thrives with a securely fenced yard where he can explore under supervision, whether that’s with his human or while being casually overseen by the big dogs. He loves having space to roam, sniff, and conduct his very serious stick research.
Potty training with Wyatt Earp is best described as a work in progress, which is puppy-speak for “he understands the assignment, but sometimes forgets the due date.” He’s trying. He’s learning. He’s a baby. Lower your expectations slightly and everyone will be happier. When it comes to his kennel, Wyatt is shockingly reasonable. No screaming, no dramatic protests, no late-night escape planning. As for barking — Wyatt does not feel the need to narrate life. He’s not announcing leaf movement, reporting on passersby, or offering commentary on imaginary threats. If silence is golden, Wyatt is solid gold. Bottom line? Wyatt Earp is extremely easygoing, refreshingly low-drama, and just… pleasant. No big quirks, no wild behaviors, no hidden “gotchas.” He’s the kind of puppy who makes you wonder how you got so lucky and why more dogs can’t be like this.
So if you’re reading all of this thinking, “Wow, this puppy sounds suspiciously perfect,” congratulations — you have excellent taste. If you would like to be blessed with Wyatt’s charming face and emotionally stable personality, you’ll need to fill out an adoption application at https://www.pyrpawsandfluffytailsrescue.com/adoption-app. This is not optional, no matter how much you feel like you’re meant to be together. Once that’s done, we’ll happily send your application over to his foster family for review — they know him best and will want to make sure you’re worthy of his greatness.
And yes, Wyatt will need to be picked up in Tulsa, OK, because as amazing as he is, he does not come with free delivery, a private jet, or a sheriff escort. If you’re ready for a genuinely good puppy with a fantastic temperament and a whole lot of love to give, Wyatt Earp is ready to ride off into the sunset with you. 🐾🤠
