Smiley Wiley is a handsome, fluffy German Shepherd mix who is approximately 1 year old and weighs 65 lbs. Wiley is an athletic, loyal, and adventurous companion who loves to give hugs! He is great around other dogs and clearly enjoys playing with them. Wiley thrives with confident leadership and structure, and he already knows several commands. He is very treat-motivated and eager to please, making him a joy to train. Wiley is also a smart boy who enjoys both active adventures and quiet cuddle time. He has been around children and is good-natured and tolerant, though he prefers the company of older children (15+) who understand his need for space.
Ideal Home
Wiley would do best in a home with a confident, playful female dog who enjoys both rowdy play and calmer moments. He also thrives with a semi-active family that enjoys hiking or running and is looking for a dog that can relax as well. A home with a big backyard would be ideal for Wiley to stretch his legs and enjoy the outdoors. He would do best in a home with 1-2 children ages 15 and up.
Ongoing Health
No specific ongoing health concerns were mentioned in the description.
Training & Support
Wiley can get a little nervous in new environments and situations, so having another confident dog in the home will help build his confidence. He responds well to confident leadership and structure. While he is good with children, he prefers the company of older children who understand his boundaries.
