Meet Walter, the ultimate survivor and canine comedian! Once upon a time, Walter was abandoned and left to fend for himself. But being the brave, smart, and independent fellow he is, he turned his misfortune into a comedy of errors. He made friends easily in the neighborhood. Digging a hole for he and a buddy to sleep in during the cold weather. Cuddling with friends is a must for Walter.  He loves all his four legged canine friends, not so much the feline variety. During his adventures, he had a run in with a car. His left back leg has a hitch is his giddy up, due to the hip being dislocated. This does not slow him down! He can jump straight up in the air and spin better than any cheerleader. He has had xrays and the vet says no surgery is necessary. He just needs a joint supplement each day, that extra treat in his food makes him a happy fella.  Even though Walter spent a lot of time outside, he has decided that inside life is fantastic and let's his humans know when he has to go to the bathroom. He is learning not to be afraid of people, as he likely was not treated kindly in the past. Walter needs someone willing to train and put the work in with rewards of puppy kisses. Walter needs to to be in the crate while at home alone, as he gets afraid of being left again. He would do best in a home with a doggy friend he can play with. He's as sweet, friendly, and cuddly as ever, and his playful energy keeps everyone laughing. Walter is heart worm positive, but has finished his pre-medication to the heartworm treatment. The treatment can be completed after adoption with Pawfect Match paying for his heartworm treatment per contract.  His curiosity and goofiness make every day an adventure. If you're looking for a loyal friend who will keep you entertained with his antics, then Walter is your guy. He's ready to bring his bravery, smarts, and boundless love to a forever home. Adopt Walter and let the laughter begin!
