Wally came into the rescue through no fault of his own and as a senior dog he is looking for his retirement home to laze away his days in a sunny spot while receiving his three hots and a cot, or whatever it is that old doggos get.
Wally is a big lover who just wants to be your favorite cuddle buddy. He loves to sleep in a pile with foster mom and his foster siblings. He loves his toys, but his licky mat is his absolute favorite! Fill that thing up with soft mushy food or peanut butter and Wally is in heaven!! Wally does well with other dogs and older children. He's not been exposed to cats, but it should be ok. Wally does ok with stairs but would benefit from a home without stairs as he is getting older and the ol' joints ain't what they used to be. He does not require a fenced in yard, because he's not going anywhere fast, but he likes to wander and must be either constantly supervised outside or in a fenced area where he can waddle around freely. Waddle being the operative word there. His nickname is Waddlin' Wally! It's truly a sight to behold.
Wally is kennel trained and waddles on a leash if necessary. He is on a mix of soft kibble and raw food prepared by foster mom because this ol' man does not have many teeth left. This boy is an angel and is so full of love he is ready to give!

While in foster care, all our dogs are thoroughly vetted. Any discovered medical issues will be disclosed above. Our Lucky Bulldogs (and their smushie-faced buddies) are cleared by their vet for adoption prior to us accepting applications. All our dogs will be up to date on Rabies & DHPP vaccinations, up to date on Heartworm preventative after a negative Heartworm test, and spayed or neutered prior to being adopted out to their forever homes. Often times, our dogs are given dentals and sometimes nare-widening surgery if needed while under anesthesia. All surgical and medical history we have will be shared with adopters. Further details can be discussed with the foster volunteer during the phone interview for the applications that are chosen to proceed to the phone interview part of the adoption process.
All our dogs are crate trained unless otherwise noted on their "All About" pages.

We will accept applications for our available dogs for 1-2 weeks except in cases of overwhelming popularity where we may stop accepting new applicants sooner. Once we have stopped accepting applications, we will review them and proceed with a phone call with our top two applications to chat about the dog being applied for, go over the adoption process, and answer any questions the potential adopter has. After phone calls take place, we will decide on our top applicant choice and proceed to contact them to schedule a home visit (in person or via video chat), and check vet and personal references before the adoption is ready to be completed. This process can take up to 6 weeks.
