ADOPTED!

Meet Wyatt! He’s a handsome male chocolate Labrador Retriever, approximately two-years-old. Wyatt was surrendered by his family when they found that they could not give him the care and attention he needed.

Wyatt is a medium to high energy boy who loves to run and play with his toys. He sometimes jumps up when he gets excited, so we will not place him in a home with children under ten years old.

Wyatt is a smart boy. He knows to sit for treats, meals and putting his harness and leash on. Wyatt jumps in and out of cars quickly and loves going for car rides. Once Wyatt has a little bit of training, he would make a great errand buddy or possibly even a great running partner.

Wyatt is house trained and will stand by the door to let his family know that he needs to go out. He did have an accident when he first went to live with his foster but has been fine ever since – maybe just a case of nerves.

Wyatt’s adopters should frequently take him out when he first arrives until he gets used to their home. He also likes to checkout counters to see if there are any tasty treats left out for him. His new family should be careful about leaving food on counters and dangerous items such as medicines that he might try to grab, thinking they are treats.

Wyatt is a total love bug, extremely affectionate, and loves to be with his people. He follows his foster Mom everywhere, and snuggling on the sofa is one of his favorite things to do! He sleeps well through the night on a dog bed next to his foster parents’ bed and is ready to get up whenever you are!

Wyatt is happy hanging out with his foster Mom while she’s working during the day. He’ll nap on a dog bed or in a crate in her office, although he does snore sometimes! He is also fond of resting in a sunny spot on the patio.

Wyatt has good house manners but needs help with his leash manners. He tends to pull, barks, and pull towards other dogs when he sees them on walks. He’s met dogs and will calm down once he meets them, although he can be a bit pushy in sniffing, which can put other dogs off.
Wyatt needs to learn how to meet them and people calmly. His forever family must work with him to learn to be calm on walks.

Wyatt has not been tested with cats. Unfortunately, we will not be placing Wyatt in a home with cats. We believe Wyatt would like another canine companion in his new house, or he would be great as an only dog if his new family is home a lot and will provide Wyatt with exercise and attention.

Wyatt was recently neutered, is current on his vaccines, and is microchipped.
