Meet Walter, an 11-year-old Labrador Retriever who has perfected the art of being a loyal, easygoing companion. Calm, gentle, and wonderfully well-mannered, Walter is happiest when he's close to his people, whether that means resting at your feet, joining you for a leisurely walk, or relaxing by your side at the end of the day. Walter has a sweet, steady nature that makes him a joy to have around. He doesn't jump, isn't overly active, and seems content with a comfortable routine and plenty of companionship. He has done well with every dog he's met and has shown little interest in cats. While thunderstorms can make him anxious, he responds well to patience and reassurance. One of Walter's most endearing qualities is how trustworthy he is in the home. He can be left out while his foster is at work or overnight and simply spends his time relaxing and sleeping. Although he'll go into a crate for a treat, he prefers being close to his people and may voice his opinion for a few minutes before settling down. If you're looking for a devoted companion who is happiest simply sharing life's quiet moments, Walter may be the perfect match. Could this gentle senior be the loyal friend you've been hoping to find?
