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. Breed is a best guess, but he appears to be a lab/pittie mix with that happy-go-lucky, people-loving personality shining through in everything he does. Truly, this is a dog who wakes up ready to enjoy life and wants to bring you along with him! Wes has this warm, welcoming energy that makes him instantly lovable. He adores affection, happily rolling over for a belly rub, and he makes fast friends everywhere he goes. He is wonderfully social with other dogs, 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. After getting his playtime in, he's more than happy to come inside, flop down, and settle. That balance of playful energy and easy downtime makes him such a fun and easy companion. Wes met Biggie, our house cat, and he was very excited to make a new friend, coming in with kisses, play bows, and big "let's be besties" energy. Because of that enthusiasm, he'll do best with a dog-savvy cat who can set boundaries. Wes can get a little vocal, so apartment life isn't in the cards for him. Plus, he loves being outside for play sessions and a good roll around in the grass, so a house with a yard is the dream! Wes is ready to do more than just join your life; he is ready to brighten it, bring extra joy, extra laughter, and a whole lot of love!
Ideal Home

Ongoing Health

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, but this is due to excitement, not reactivity. He responds well to corrections and is very treat-motivated, so he will polish up nicely with consistency and positive reinforcement.
