About Walter

Adoption Fee: $350.00
Boxer / Rottweiler
Age: Puppy
Sex: Male

Don't let those wrinkles fool you - Walter is mix of energy and pure silliness. His foster family believes Walter (aka Wally, Wallace, Walnut, Walla-Walla Bing Bong, Wallaford, and sometimes it's 'REALLY WALTER?!?') is a mix of several different breeds that would probably include Boxer, a few from the Terrier group, Rottweiler and some other type of herding breed. He is 1-2 years old, weighs about 55 pounds. Walter gets along with other dogs (but can be irritating to older/calmer dogs) and would do best in a home with younger, more active dogs that are comparable to him in size or bigger. He has not been tested with cats. Walter is still very puppy-like in that he will still mouth/bite hands in play and jumps up so I would not recommend young children (under the age of 10 - or older if not dog savvy). He is a power chewer, with very powerful jaws - but usually only with his toys (and plastic bottles/jugs). He is crate trained but has had the run of the house with 4 of his foster siblings for 3 weeks now and has had NO issues. He is housebroken and trained on an invisible fence. He knows sit, shake, lay-down, come, and we are working on stay. He loves to play fetch and has a vertical jump of about 5 feet (as of right now, with no training). He is very smart and would be great trained in agility. He needs to work on leash manners and still wants to play non-stop like a puppy. Walter needs an owner who is the Alpha pack leader, however, Walter is NOT alpha with other dogs (the last 7 weeks in his foster home he has been submissive with his 4 foster siblings - 2 males and 2 females). Walter is located in a foster home near Bloomsburg, PA. If you are interested in meeting Walter, you must be willing to travel to his foster home. WALTER is neutered, heartworm negative, microchipped and up to date on age appropriate core vaccines. Adoption fee is $350. As with all rescue animals, breed determination cannot be validated without genetic testing.
