Pet Location: Wayside`s Canine Behavior Center - I`d love to show off all the cool things I`ve learned at Wayside! Please arrive at the shelter before 4pm on our open adoption days to meet me!My friends at Wayside say:- I am from a puppy mill situation. I will likely need extra time to adjust to home life. I have lived with other dogs but have not socialized with people. Things like walking on a leash and going through doorways can be challenging for me. Adopting me will be extremely rewarding, but I need time to learn.- I am enrolled in Confidence College. This is a program for dogs to build confidence and learn that the world is not so scary. My adoption comes with a free 30-minute private training session. - During my time at Wayside, I have enjoyed being around other dogs. - Once I get to know you, I like to stick close and solicit pets!- I am eligible for a Slumber Pawty, a 7-10 day in-home trial period. Please visit our website for additional information. My home needs are:- I must go to a home that already has another social dog so they can show me the ropes. - I feel more comfortable around new people when I have a doggie friend to build my confidence. Wayside requires you to bring your dog with you when you come to meet me.- I need a home with kids 6 years old and older since I tend to be nervous around new people and loud noises.- A fenced yard is a must for me! I do not know how to walk on a leash, so I need a secure area to go out for potty breaks.- For my safety, I need to go home on an anti-slip collar called a martingale collar. For your convenience, we sell them in our retail store, Whiskers and Wags. - New people and things make me a little nervous. Wayside recommends that I have a low traffic home.
