Hi! My name is Walrus and I am from Iowa.

From his foster: Walrus is the most sweetest pup but very fearful and high anxiety for such a young pup. He bonded very quickly with me but he has not opened up to bond with anyone else in my household or any other visitors. He will stand straight as a board and not even look at anyone else if they attempt to hold him. He sits at my feet all day long and/or cuddles up in a ball next to me. Due to his fear and anxiety I would strongly suggest his adopter be home most of the time. He appears to have lived in a crate for his first 4 months of his life and has no interest in going back in one right now but has done just fine left out for short periods of time and at night with things to occupy him.

Walrus gets along with other dogs (currently 2 other fosters and 2 resident dogs) all similar size but he does get moments of puppy energy that not all enjoy like biting.

He enjoys running in the yard but is fearful of loud noises like a lawn mower. He has his special underbite which doesn't stop him from enjoying his favorite activity chewing bones! He does have issues picking up some treats so I do make them very small pieces for him.

Walrus is not fully house trained. Most of that I attribute to him being sick when he first arrived he was really sick. I have him on a very consistent schedule and he does good now.
