My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:


Wally is a very loving, loyal and protective dog who has a lot of energy, loves to play ball and run in his yard. He also loves to be indoors and cuddle and lounge with his family. Wally was adopted from a rescue shelter in Texas , there we lived in a rural setting with an open fenced yard and Wally was able to run freely, play ball, chase critters and was truly in his element. We have since retired and recently moved to a suburban neighborhood in VA to be closer to family. There are numerous dogs on both sides of us therefore Wally is fearful, has become fence aggressive and is very limited on his ability to spend time unleashed in our open fence backyard to get the exercise he needs. He is not adjusting to his new environment. He would thrive in a country or rural setting where he has room to play and feel safe.
