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 it would only be sensible for us to adopt him out as an only dog.
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. Walter may not be brave enough for lead walks for the first few weeks / months
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 - even sharing with other dogs - so it's possible that he could develop separation anxiety in a home
Lead trained
Walter is not yet lead trained. This will come once he has settled into his new home and has built a bond with his new family
Training required
Walter has no form of basic training. This will all come in time once he has settled and learnt to fully trust his adopters
