Where’s Waldo? No need to search any further – he’s right here, and he’s our Pet of the Week!

This one-year-old Labrador Retriever/German Shepherd mix was brought in by a good Samaritan in early January. At about 40 pounds, Waldo is considered a large breed dog.

Since he’s still so young Waldo is full of energy and loves to play! He does best when he gets lots of exercise and activities to keep his mind busy. Waldo is still working on his manners, so he will need a home with people who can help him become the best dog he can be.

While at the Pet Adoption Center, Waldo met a younger, playful dog about his size. It seems he does well with other dogs, with a slow introduction. A playmate who is easy-going and able to keep up with him would be great!

No need to search any further for a great pet, because Waldo is ready to go home with you. He is neutered, current on vaccinations, and microchipped. His adoption comes with many benefits, including 30 days of opt-in pet health insurance through Trupanion and a lifetime discount on online training from GoodPup. Since Waldo is our Pet of the Week, his adoption fee is reduced, though a pet license fee may still apply.
