Sunshine in dog form, with the perfect balance of social butterfly energy and goofy charm, this is Wes! Wes is estimated to be just over a year old and weighs around 51 lbs. Breed is a best guess, but he appears to be a lab/pittie mix with that happy-go-lucky, people-loving personality shining through in everything he does. Truly, this is a dog who wakes up ready to enjoy life and wants to bring you along with him. Wes has this warm, welcoming energy that makes him instantly lovable. He doesn't hesitate with new people; he leans in. He adores affection, happily rolling over for a belly rub, and he makes fast friends everywhere he goes.
Ideal Home
Wes would thrive with another medium-energy dog to play with and keep him company. He would do well in a home with a yard or an apartment, as long as his person enjoys getting out and about with him. He would absolutely shine as a go-everywhere, do-everything kind of dog. Because Wes can get a little vocal, apartment life isn't ideal for him. He loves being outside for play sessions and a good roll around in the grass, so a house with a yard is the dream! He'll do best with a dog-savvy cat who can set boundaries.
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions were mentioned in the listing.
Training & Support
Wes is still growing out of his puppy enthusiasm on leash and can be a bit of a puller when he sees other dogs, but this is due to excitement, not reactivity. He responds well to corrections and is very treat-motivated, so with consistency and treats, he will polish up nicely. Wes loves his food and takes treats gently with great manners, even around other dogs.
