WALLY

My story

#A5707694 Meet Wally , a 4-year-old Standard Poodle mix with long legs, and resembles a small version of the Irish Wolfhound. A wavy shadow-grey coat, and the regal air of a wolfish prince. He’s definitely shy and overwhelmed in the shelter, and his barky kennel manners don’t reflect the gentle soul beneath. Take him outside, give him a little time, and you'll see him begin to soften and shine. Wally needs a kind, patient adopter or foster who can help him feel safe and seen, however long that takes. With steady love and trust, this sensitive boy will bloom - and when he does, you'll have a loyal, loving companion for life. Come meet Wally and see the beauty behind the bark.     -4 year old black and grey Standard Poodle mix -60 pound male - Wally hasn’t been neutered yet because he picked up a little doggy cold at the shelter and needs to get better first; he can be adopted on a health waiver and neutered later, which the shelter may be able to help with -may also need the standard round of shots and preventatives before he can go home with you, but the shelter can likely help with these as well! -came to the Baldwin Park Animal Care Center on 6/19/25 as a stray -long, lithe, leggy shadow grey pup, with a wavy, shaggy coat - very distinguished and regal, with a unique wolfish look -very shy and very scared in the shelter environment - don't let his presentation in the kennel put you off! Wally may bark and not show his best side in his cage, but once you take him out and get to know him, he calms down and warms up beautifully -needs a kind and gentle adopter or foster willing to go slow, be patient, and take the time to build his trust -Wally may need a little extra finesse and some upfront investment, but you'll be richly rewarded with watching him blossom into his best self firsthand, and he'll give you all his love and loyalty in return   https://youtube.com/shorts/tRV42CZ0h5A For more information, contact volunteer Karen at karenklink94@hotmail.com ------- United Hope for Animals (UHA) is a volunteer group and does not have a facility for animals.  This pet is part of our Shelter Support Program at the Baldwin Park Shelter.
