Description:
Wally: Your Loyal, Goofy, and Loving Shadow Stop your search! You’ve found your best friend. Meet Wally, an all-black beauty ready to dedicate his life to loving you. Wally is a people dog through and through—he’s your loyal, long-lost shadow, and his favorite mission is to be right by your side. The Best Buddy Package: Elite Cuddler: Wally's passion is snuggling. Forget flashy toys or complicated tricks; just give him a soft blanket and a spot on the couch next to you, and you've made a best friend for life. A-Level Goofball: Get ready to laugh! Wally is famously derpy and silly in all the best ways. He brings a lighthearted, joyful energy to the home. He may never win an obedience award, but his quirky charm and unconditional love are all the reward you'll ever need. Social & Settled: Wally thrives on interaction. While he has bursts of energy, he is easily managed with a good long walk or some dedicated playtime. Once he's burned off some steam, he settles quickly, ready to transition seamlessly into relaxation and cuddle mode. Kid-Friendly Love: Wally adores people of all ages, including children! Because his enthusiasm can get the better of him when he's excited, a home with older, more dog-savvy kids would be the perfect fit. The Honest Details: Wally had a rough start, having been rescued as a puppy from a difficult situation. He has since been safe and well-cared for, but the stress of his early life and a long stay in animal control has meant he has some Anxiety. This is successfully managed with affordable daily medication and make him the wonderful, stable dog he is today. Wally needs a devoted, understanding family who knows that a commitment to a dog sometimes involves a little extra care. In return, he promises a lifetime of unconditional love, goofy antics, and the best cuddles you’ve ever had. Can you offer this deserving, resilient boy the fresh start and soft landing he’s been waiting for?
