Meet Walter Fitzgerald, a handsome and exceptionally cool companion who embodies the definition of calm! This social butterfly makes even leash walking look like an Olympic sport. Walter is the ultimate chill vibes-only dog, happy to be your shadow or simply coexist peacefully. He has a magical ability to balance playtime with relaxation, and his emotional intelligence allows him to read any room (and the other dogs in it) perfectly.
Ideal Home
Walter would thrive in a home that appreciates his balanced energy. He is looking for a feline-free sanctuary, as cats are a little too exciting for his taste. He would do best with a medium-energy dog sibling who enjoys playtime but also values quiet time.
Ongoing Health
Walter is a German Shepherd Mix and is a perfectly sized, sturdy, and athletic dog. All vetting is up-to-date, which includes DAPP with booster, Bordetella, Rabies vaccine, multiple broad-spectrum deworming treatments, spay/neuter, flea prevention, a 12-month heartworm preventative injection, heartworm test and treatment if needed, and a microchip with free lifetime registration.
Training & Support
Walter is already crate trained and potty trained, making his transition into your home a breeze. He's been a perfect gentleman in his crate, even with a lot of activity around him. He is also a dream in the car and is an absolute pro on the leash, practically heeling himself.

Transportation
Walter is currently in a foster home in Texas. We facilitate adoptions nationwide using our rescue-run USDA-certified transport system. This ensures every pet travels safely and comfortably with 24/7 care. Drop-off locations are available in WA, UT, OR, ID, VA, PA, OH, NY, CT, VT, TN, KY, WI, MN, IL, WI, and Canada. For Canadian adopters, pick-up is in Bellingham, WA, Buffalo, NY, or Brattleboro, VT. You will have the opportunity to track your pet's journey in real-time, see photo updates, learn fun facts, and connect with fellow adopters and fosters through our private Facebook event page. A $87 surcharge applies due to rising transportation costs. Texas adopters must pick up from the Houston area.
