Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Wally
*loves his toys!
*housebroken
*does great with cats
*good on a leash
*older kids only
*need a daily over the counter joint supplement to help him with an issue that was discovered when he was found
Wallaby (or Wally for short) was found wandering in a common dumping ground behind the Sweetwater Veterinary Hospital. A kind, Good Samaritan reached out to us for help with this guy! Wallaby is a happy, silly guy with lots of energy. Wallaby has shoulder dysplasia which can cause some pain near his neck/shoulder area. On 3 different occasions, Wally quickly nipped out of pain when his neck area was touched. His pain levels and medical condition are better controlled now with daily joint supplements and anti-inflammatory medicine as needed. However, because of this diagnosis, we feel he would do best in a home with older kids who will respect his space. He would also do best in a home where he is not confined into a small space for long periods of time (kennel) as this causes Wally more pain. He gets along well with dogs outside but can be a bit possessive inside the house if he has pent up energy or doesn’t get enough mental and physical stimulation.
Wallaby is a high energy dog and since he is a poodle mix, he will require regular grooming and brushing! He will also require not only physical stimulation, but mental stimulation as well. This includes activities such as treat balls and puzzles, snuffle mats, hiking/walking at different, exciting places for new smells! He also looooooves to play fetch! He is in his happiest place when he is outside 🌳 🌲
Wally is also prone to hot spots and we will be getting more information on this from the vet!
