From such a fragile beginning, he has blossomed into a brave and beautiful dog who is now ready to meet his forever family. --- Gio is looking for a family who will build trust with patience and stay by his side for life.

Story
🐾 Meet Wiley 🐾 In seattle. 📌 Basic Profile 🐶 Name: Wiley 🐕 Breed: Jindo mix 🎂 Age: 3 years ⚖️ Weight: 23.6 kg (52 lb) 🚹 Gender: Male (neutered) 🎨 Color: Cream beige --- 💛 Personality & Charm Wiley is a smart and charming boy who truly enjoys learning. Training keeps him happy and mentally engaged, and he quickly picks up new skills. He already knows many commands such as sit, stay, come, lie down, quiet, and shake, and he’s always eager to learn more. Because of his past, Wiley needs time to build trust. Once he feels safe, he forms a deep bond and shows affection in his own gentle way. He is soft in play and has a goofy personality that often makes his people laugh. Wiley is happiest outdoors — especially if he has space to run or wildlife to observe. He could spend hours quietly watching squirrels and birds. He’s curious, intelligent, and content with a routine-filled life that includes outdoor time and peaceful surroundings. He is cautious with new people at first, but once he warms up, he becomes affectionate with both men and women. He takes treats gently and is very sensitive to human emotions. If someone close to him feels upset, he will wag his tail and try to comfort them. --- 🩺 Health & Care Wiley is in excellent health and fully up to date on vaccinations. Takes a monthly oral flea and tick preventative (he is uncomfortable with topical applications). Occasionally may vomit if his stomach is empty too long, so he receives a small snack after waking and before bedtime. Maintains dental health with special treats, toys, and food. Uses a scratch board for nail care when given the command “paw” — he has not needed traditional nail trimming in over two years. Naturally clean and keeps his coat tidy on his own. He has never required a bath. Still building comfort with brushing and ear cleaning, but has made great progress through cooperative care training. --- 🐾 Compatibility 👶 Children: Best suited for a home without young children. While he enjoys affection, if he does not want interaction at a certain moment, he may respond by snapping. 🐶 Other Dogs: Does well with calm, respectful dogs. Not comfortable with overly energetic or pushy dogs. Should be fed separately due to resource guarding with food and treats. 🐱 Cats: Not recommended due to high prey drive. --- 🎓 Training & Behavior ✔️ Potty Training: Fully trained — no accidents in over two years. ✔️ Crate Training: Not crate trained; prefers open areas. No separation anxiety and can stay home alone for hours calmly. ✔️ Car Rides: Calm and improving. Previously had motion sickness as a puppy; still takes preventive meclizine for long trips. ✔️ Leash Walking: Calm and non-reactive toward people and dogs. May become excited when spotting squirrels or cats, so a firm grip is helpful. ✔️ Barking: Rarely barks; usually only to alert. ✔️ Energy Level: Medium — enjoys two walks daily and plenty of nap time. ✔️ Destructive Behavior: None. --- 🏡 Ideal Home Wiley would thrive in a peaceful, patient household with people who understand and respect his independent nature. A secure yard or safe outdoor space where he can explore and watch wildlife would make him happiest. To the right family, Wiley will offer deep loyalty, intelligence, and quiet companionship. 🐾💛
