About Adopt Walter

Walter is a striking young boy that is looking for a family with a keen interest in training. Walter would be the dream dog for an aspiring dog trainer or those looking for a fun dog who can turn his paw to most things, whether that is man trailing, cani X or just being an absolute superstar! At only 11 months old Walter is still learning to navigate the world, being a Shepherd mix Walter tends to explore the world through his mouth but is learning how to regulate his excitable tendencies! He is a very people social boy and loves to meet new people. Due to his boisterous nature he is looking for an adult only home.Walter is equally sociable with other dogs and meeting other dogs and having the opportunity to socialise with them is very important to him. However, Walter can struggle to regulate his excitement, so he is learning how to appropriately introduce himself to other dogs whilst learning some dogs won’t want to greet him and to teach him how to walk past other dogs in these situations. Continuing this training will be crucial to ensure his social bucket is regularly filled! Walter’s ideal home would be one where there is the potential to either live with another playful dog or where he has regular access to other social dogs. For his day to day walks, Walter would struggle to walk in highly dog populated areas as he would find this very frustrating, he is therefore looking for a home who can provide him with low dog populated walking routes initially. Our behavioural team at the centre will be on hand to support potential adopters with Walter’s ongoing training both prior to adoption and post adoption.Walter really is such a fantastic boy and with the right support he will be a showstopping dog.
