About Woody

  • Status: Available for Adoption (adoption info)
  • Adoption Fee: 300
  • Species: Dog
  • Current Size: 12 Pounds
  • Current Age: 1 Year 10 Months (best estimate)

Woody is about a year, maybe a year and a half old. Weighs roughly 15 lbs.  He is a good mixture of super playful and binge watch t.v. shows energy with his humans. When it comes to playmates he can play ROUGH. i need to stress this as he will growl and bark and some dogs could easily read him wrong. BUT, I really think he needs a young playful dog to hang with and has made a few doggy friends in the past couple of months that match his energy  He can be a little hoarder with new toys and it takes him a little while to want to share them. He was quite a bit sheltered in his previous life and new things can be scary to him. With some redirection and patience he has been doing great. He is still scared of the dark and small children. He LOVES to play with older kids and Im thinking maybe 6/7 and up would be good for him. He does not like to be in his crate and would require someone who maybe is a stay at home parent or works from home? When left for long periods he can get stressed which can lead to throwing up. He has always liked our cats and even gets along with our old grumpy one. Its been a non issue from the get go. He does pretty well on a leash but will bark at people outside (bikes, passers-by, neighbors). So that needs to be worked on still. I think a fenced yard would be great for him but he would be able to climb a chain link and he will dig given an opportunity so he will still need to be either walked on a leash or someone will have to watch him outdoors. He is potty trained but does not alert when needing to poop so we have kept him on a schedule of pottying after meals which has worked well for the most part. He does have some barrier aggression when there is a dog outside a gate or his crate. It has never gone further than his growling/barking but It sounds super scary when he is doing it which has made for interesting introductions to new dogs. (He will still growl at his best friend if she approaches when he is in his crate) (it is completely workable just wanted to prepare any new adopter to this behavior). He usually warms up fast to new people in the house. He is a little lover boy. Car rides. We haven't been able to do much with car rides with him. My only concern here would be that he was secure before any doors open as he moves very fast and I would be concerned he would bolt out a door. Car seat and seat belt maybe? Any questions feel free to ask!

All animal breeds and ages are a best estimate
