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. He appears to be a lab/pittie mix with a happy-go-lucky, people-loving personality that shines through in everything he does. Truly, this is a dog who wakes up ready to enjoy life, and he wants to bring you along with him! Wes has a 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 is wonderfully social with other dogs. He is friendly, playful, and knows how to mix and mingle, especially in a group setting. He 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. Wes would absolutely shine as a go-everywhere, do-everything kind of dog – hikes, patio hangs, neighborhood strolls, you name it. He'll do best with a dog-savvy cat who can set boundaries. Wes can get a little vocal, so apartment life isn't ideal for him. A house with a yard is the dream!
Ongoing Health
No specific health conditions are mentioned.
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; 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 has great manners when taking treats, even around other dogs.
