Story
How this pet arrived:Jude was brought in by their previous owner on June 3, 2026. Why this pet is the one for you:Jude is a charming guy who enjoys his walks and likes to do things on his own terms-more like a cat than a dog! He appreciates having his space respected and may take some time to feel comfortable with new people. The best way to build a relationship with Jude is to let him approach when he's ready and allow him to move away if he needs a break. Jude would thrive in a calm, patient home that can keep his world small while he settles in. Think quiet walks, cozy naps, and plenty of time to adjust. He may benefit from a Fear Free veterinarian and gentle, reward-based handling for any future grooming needs. With patience and understanding, Jude is sure to become a wonderful companion and loyal friend. At SDHS:This pet has been vaccinated, microchipped and spayed/neutered. This pet is now ready for adoption!Shy/Fearful Dog: This pet requires a virtual behavior consult, please watch THIS video to learn more about them. Primary Color: Tan Weight: 47.2 Age: 4yrs 1mths 1wks

Walterini would make a wonderful addition to a loving home looking for a loyal and loving companion. Come meet him today! At SDHS:Walterini has been vaccinated, microchipped and neutered.
