Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Petey!
Age: Senior
Breed: Westie mix
Weight: 14lbs
Good with: kids (lives with a preschooler and a teen), mellow dogs, cats
House trained: almost there!
Crate trained: yes but trusted to free roam as well
Needs: cozy dog bed and snacks
Petey is a gentle, distinguished gentleman who is quite confused how he’s in his current situation. Petey was found as a stray and spent some time in a shelter due to his itchy skin. The folks at Albert’s sprang him loose and fixed him up, helping his fur grow in nicely and provided a much needed dental. Now this cutie is ready for his forever home!
Despite his past, Petey is a sweet and calm pup who enjoys being close to his people. He loves to keep tabs on his foster family and enjoys curling up on his many dog beds and taking a snooze. He’s fantastic on a leash (adorable trot and wags his fluffy tail) and would also enjoy a fenced in yard. Petey is great in a car/a great travel buddy. He is SO close to being fully house broken and is fine to wear a belly band when you will gone for long stretches.
Petey is friendly with the kiddos in his foster home and while he does not live with a dog he is fine to meet them on walks and enjoyed the ones he met on an overnight stay. He seems more comfortable with mellow pups, he has no time for tomfoolery. Petey was cat tested and did great, was curious but did not chase. He will go into a crate but may take some time to settle, he is fine to roam freely and not destructive so a crate is not needed.
What Petey lacks in size he makes up in adorable personality. Are you the lucky person that gets to call Petey yours?!
