Winnie

Meet Winnie!<br/><br/>A spirited almost seven-year-old Bichon Frise/West Highland White Terrier mix currently in Walnut Creek, CA, whose essence is a bundle of sweetness wrapped in a fluffy, mostly white coat.<br/><br/>At 14 pounds, Winnie is a small boy with a big enthusiasm for being close to his people! He is a constant companion who happily turns everyday moments into adventures, whether he is heading out for a walk, hopping into the car for a ride, or settling nearby at bedtime. His medium energy level pairs nicely with an active family. Winnie enjoys three to five walks a day or access to a securely fenced yard where he can stretch his legs. He also gets the zoomies indoors, so room to run is appreciated!<br/><br/>Playtime is one of Winnie’s specialties. Stuffed animals are favorites, but bring out a ball and he is ready for fetch! He also enjoys a game of tug-of-war, making him a fun companion for people who enjoy interactive play. Winnie knows “quiet,” “stay,” and “sit,” comes when called, and could continue building his skills through positive reinforcement.<br/><br/>Winnie is friendly with strangers and generally gets along well with cats. He has not met another dog directly, so his compatibility with dogs is unknown. On walks, however, he shows curiosity and wants to approach other dogs. He has not spent time around children. A younger couple or active family who can offer companionship, activity, and play could suit his lifestyle nicely!<br/><br/>This sweet boy is neutered, microchipped, up to date on vaccinations, house-trained, and appears healthy. Winnie is sensitive about facial grooming but has never bitten anyone. His regular groomers have always used a face muzzle without issue. An experienced groomer comfortable using this support can help make grooming successful.<br/><br/>Winnie usually handles short periods alone well, though he occasionally needs a little encouragement when people leave. Most of all, he loves closeness, companionship, play, and being part of the action! Could Winnie be the playful little sidekick ready to join your family’s next adventure?<br/><br/>If you're interested in providing Winnie with a loving home, please email adopt@joyfulpets.com for more information on adopting him! Please note that Winnie will remain with his current family until a suitable new home is found for him.<br/><br/>Content Notice: This pet is represented by Joyful Pets.
