Waylon is a 65 lb, neutered male Staffie mix who is a little over a year old. He is truly one of the biggest, goofiest, most lovable derps you'll ever meet! He's the kind of dog who doesn't quite realize he's a large dog and carries himself with the carefree enthusiasm of a much smaller pup. His personality is a fun mix of playful, curious, silly, and affectionate in his own quirky way. While he's not overly clingy, he enjoys being around his people and happily bounces through life with a joyful, slightly goofy energy that makes him incredibly endearing. One of Waylon's greatest loves in life is tennis balls. He absolutely worships them and could happily spend hours chasing, carrying, or showing off his prized ball. He has a moderate energy level and enjoys playtime and activity, making him a great match for an active home that can help him burn off some of that playful enthusiasm. Once he's had the chance to get some energy out, he settles nicely and becomes a much calmer companion.
Ideal Home
Waylon would thrive in a home that appreciates his goofy personality, enjoys playtime and activity, and is ready for a big-hearted, slightly derpy companion. An active home that understands big, goofy dogs will likely be the best fit. He would certainly enjoy having a playful sibling, but doesn't require another dog in the home.
Ongoing Health
Waylon may get a little nervous during storms and thunder, but CBD chews help him relax during those moments.
Training & Support
Waylon is house-trained and does beautifully in his crate, typically sleeping through the night from about 10 PM to 6 AM. He walks well on leash once he's burned off a little energy, though he can zig-zag a bit when he's feeling extra curious about the world around him. He has no issues with food, toys, or resource guarding. He may greet new people with a curious little boof before warming up.
