If you're looking for a chill dude for walks and naps, Walrus is your guy! This big-headed, handsome boy gets so many compliments on his walks. With those big brown eyes and sweet face, who wouldn't want to take him home?

Walrus loves treats, scratches, belly rubs, getting brushed (a big fan of that), long walks where he can sniff EVERYTHING, and of course naps. Walrus has embraced all the sleeping spots his foster mom has provided and is truly a nap pro.

Some things he's still figuring out include stairs (he's an elevator boy right now), doors, comfy dog beds, and his water bowl (he wonders why this thing is so shiny). He already loves his rope and chew toys.

Walrus walks nicely on a leash and has good manners. He is excited to meet dogs and is sweet and curious. He gives big tail wags anytime he sees one on his walks. His foster mom can see him being a great hiking or running buddy in the future.

He does well left home alone uncrated for 2 to 3 hours and sleeps comfortably in his crate at night. He's given a few barks here and there but stops immediately when corrected. He is house-trained.

While he would love a house and a yard, Walrus is doing great in an apartment. He's perfect for anyone looking for a happy, loving guy to spend work-from-home days with. He loves other dogs and will do well with one. He's also gentle with kids and will do well supervised with them.

Come meet Walrus today. Take him home and you'll never nap alone again! And you can see more about him on Instagram: @walrusthewonderpup
