Walter

Meet Walter! <br/><br/>Walter is an 8-year-old, 12-pound Jack Russell Terrier who is fully vetted, house trained, and looking for someone who knows that sometimes the very best friendships are the ones that take a little time to bloom.<br/><br/>Walter can be shy when meeting new people and prefers to make friends at his own pace. He's also head shy, meaning quick or unexpected movements around his head can intimidate him. Give him some space, move at Walter's speed, and let him figure you out-and before long, you'll get to meet the wonderful little guy hiding behind that initial shyness. Because of this, Walter would do best in a home without young children, where his boundaries can be understood and respected.<br/><br/>Once Walter feels safe with you, though? Oh, does this little guy blossom! He's as chill as a cucumber and has practically earned a PhD in Couch Potato Studies. He's happiest curled up relaxing with his people, but suggest a game of "come chase me!" and suddenly this distinguished 8-year-old gentleman is bouncing around like a puppy. And treats? Well... those are certainly one way to speed up negotiations. <br/><br/>Walter gets along wonderfully with dogs and cats and, once he's comfortable, settles right into home life. When bedtime rolls around, his favorite place is snuggled up beside his person. At only 12 pounds, he's basically a perfectly portable little cuddle buddy.<br/><br/>Walter doesn't need someone to rush him. He needs someone willing to let him choose them. Give him patience, kindness, gentle hands, and the time he needs to realize he's safe, and you'll discover the sweet, silly, playful, snuggly little character his foster already knows and loves.<br/><br/>Walter is ready for forever. He's just hoping there's someone out there who understands that earning a shy dog's trust makes their love that much sweeter. <br/><br/>Apply Here: https://new.shelterluv.com/matchme/adopt/FCOH/Dog<br/><br/>*If you are viewing this profile on Petfinder, please note integration issues between our shelter program and Petfinder often occur and limit what you can see.
