WALKER needs your help and a home!! 🤞
 
Walker was our dog back in 2019, he showed good aptitude to be a working dog so he was placed with Wagtail specialist dog services where he completed his training and got to work!!
 
He has now been retired from working and is looking for a permanent home to retire into and we have been contacted to help his search as so far it has proved fruitless and he is really hating kennels now 😢
 
Walker is a large Labrador X who is approximately 6-7years old and is currently with Red Paw rehoming so have a read of the below and then contact them if you think he could be the one for you... if not please SHARE on social media to help this boy find his forever after !!

Walker is available to foster with the view to adopt!!
 
Sadly he is kennel stressed so we need to find him a home ASAP
 
Walker is a male Labrador cross who was a stray before coming to us, so sadly not much is known about his life prior to being with us. Walker is a very cuddly and affection dog when having a good bond with you. He has had a couple of years working over in Northern France where he has worked closely with a few handlers whom formed a close bond with him.
 
He can be cautious of new people and most often men.. during his time with us he has rarely taken a dislike to any of our female handlers. Some men he absolutely loves and has an incredible bond with but he is very specific about who he likes and who he doesn’t. He will make it very apparent In the early stages if he isn’t your biggest fan.
 
Play - He LOVES to play but can go from 0-100 very very quickly and with that becomes a lot of jumping around and nipping at your arms. Even if he has a toy he gets over excited and will redirect on to a person. In this situation it’s not that he doesn’t like you and is trying to eat you it’s just how he plays.
 
Other dogs: He socialises really well off and on lead and gets on with most dogs that we have here. However out and about in public, when walked on a lead, he will around he will lunge and try and get at them, and bark! His handler has been working on this.
 
Cats: Cannot be rehomed with them
 
We don't know if Walker is house trained but he is clean in his kennel.
 
He is the most amazing boy and once he trusts you he is the softest snuggliest boy. He truly deserves the best home.
 
We will not be allowing anyone with young children to adopt him.
