Walker is a charming and lovable companion who brings joy to any household! His easygoing nature and love for outdoor fun make him the perfect addition to a family with a grassy yard to roam in. Whether he's rolling in the grass or enjoying playtime with his stuffed toys, Walker's playful spirit is infectious.

One of Walker's endearing quirks is his love for his stuffed toys. Ask him "where's your stuffie?" and watch him eagerly fetch one to proudly show off, playfully inviting you to try to take it from him with a gentle growl. Despite this playful growl, Walker is remarkably gentle, especially when it comes to taking treats. He responds eagerly to commands like "sit" and delicately accepts treats with his tiny front teeth.

House-trained and well-behaved, Walker is a model companion who can be left to free roam without any anxious or destructive behaviors. He's content to spend hours alone, napping peacefully until his family returns. In his foster home, he gets along wonderfully with his doggie siblings, enjoying leisurely walks and yard strolls with them without any issues.

Walker's friendly demeanor extends to meeting new people, as he approaches them calmly for sniffs and welcomes head scratches. He's also comfortable with grooming activities like baths and brushing, making him a low-maintenance yet affectionate pet.

If you're looking for a handsome and good-natured dog who loves outdoor adventures and cuddle sessions alike, Walker is the perfect match for you!
