Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
Allow me to introduce you to Waffles, a mixed breed youngster picked up by one of our officers on 12/7 and brought to the Mesquite Animal Shelter as a stray. Isn’t he a handsome and adorable pup? Waffles has plenty of vim and vigor and in his excitement, he will jump continually on you! This will be something a foster or adopter need to address and correct. Until that happens, he would not be a good fit for a home with very small children. He has an outgoing and confident personality. Nothing timid or shy about Waffles. He is friendly and a-OK with being petted and loved on. He likes treats and therefore may be easy to train with the motivation of yummy treats. And he does need manners training! Waffles walks quite nicely on a leash despite his high energy level! This may have been his first time out of the kennel since his arrival. Therefore, it may be quite understandable the high level on the “energy” barometer! There is no doubt that with daily playtime, exercise, enrichment, and training this boy would become a devoted family member! No how, no way (he informs me) does Waffles want to be an outside dog! Can you find it in your heart to assist this fun-loving boy out the front door of the shelter and into a loving home
