Introducing... handsome Walter!

Walter's Story:

Are you looking for a little ball of energy to join your family and keep you constantly entertained? If so, look no further than Walter!

Walter is just 5 months old and was being held in a shelter in Romania. The winters over there are harsh, getting down to -20 degrees. The volunteer rescue workers were worried that Walter might not make it through the winter and so reached out to us for help. We'd recently accepted 2 other pups from them and so agreed that he could kennel share with them where we knew he would be safe.

Walter loves nothing more than to be with his people. If he could go all day, attached to your side, he 100% would.

Walter has never lived in a home and so would require a lot of work but time, patience and lots of dedication will pay off and, in time, you will end up with a lovely well rounded dog.

Bio:

With other dogs:

Walter loves playing out with the other dogs, pups and adults but he can be very in their face and get quite rough with them. He has also showed signs of food guarding as he would've had to fight the other dogs for food in the shelter so if he was to live with another dog, this would need to be very carefully managed. The dog would need to be of a larger size than Walter.

With cats:

Walter is untested with cats therefore, he can not be rehomed with them. Due to the food guarding, we wouldn't be able to guarantee that he wouldn't hurt a cat if food was involved.

Active energy

Walter is a young boy with lots of energy. He will thrive in a home that can give him lots of physical and mental stimulation to keep him from being bored and getting into mischief.

0 -2 hrs to start

Walter is very people oriented and will require training to build up his time alone. To begin with, he will need to be left as little as possible. In his kennel, he cries a lot, he's just a baby though and getting minimum attention in a very busy kennel environment.

Lead trained

Walter has now started lead walking and is absolutely loving it!

Training required

Walter has no form of basic training, this will all need to be built upon once he is settled into his forever home.

As he is just a baby and sadly growing up in kennels, he is missing out on important stages in his life and so will require puppy classes to ensure he has the very best start to life in a home with his family.
