WILBUR's Story

Meet Wilbur (A571640) Wilbur was found as a stray after his finder spotted him in several different places over the course of a week. A county officer was finally able to safely capture him and bring him to the shelter, where he has now been for a few days. It does not appear that anyone is looking for him, which is hard to believe because he is such a great boy with so much sweetness in him. Wilbur has a timid nature, but he is also deeply affectionate. He is the type of dog who will quietly lean his entire body into you to ask for gentle pets, soaking up attention in the softest way. He leads well on a leash for the most part, but sometimes he loses confidence and may pancake to the floor or pull away. He is not dramatic about it, he just needs familiarity and routine to help him trust his surroundings and feel secure. He has not yet been tested with other dogs, so meet and greets are recommended for anyone with a resident pet. Wilbur is one of those dogs who simply needs someone patient enough to let him settle, learn the rhythm of a home and discover that the world is not always as scary as it has felt for him. With a little stability and kindness, he will bloom into an incredible companion. Wilbur is estimated to be around 6 years old and weighs 67 pounds. All animals adopted from Huntsville Animal Services are microchipped, appropriately vaccinated, spayed/neutered and given a 30 day flea/tick preventative. Ready to meet Wilbur? Stop by 4950 Triana Blvd SW in Huntsville, Alabama. No appointment is necessary to meet our available animals. All adopters must be 19 years or older and be able to provide a valid ID.
