Wilbur

Description

Successfully rehomed by Battersea Dog Home

Wilbur is a sweet and gentle natured boy who really enjoys the company of people and other dogs. Typically of his breed Wilbur loves food, but he does have good self control; treats would be a good tool to use to help with his training. Wilbur enjoys having a short game with toys but he does lose interest quite quickly. Once settled in his new home his toy play may develop more.

Wilbur likes being around other dogs and new owners should keep him well socialised with playful dogs as he loves to have a game. He could potentially live with a dog of a similar breed and temperment to act as a companion and playmate.

Being a stray, we do not have any history of Wilbur, however he does show a slight anxious side when he is on his own, so he is looking for new owners who are around for the majority of the day.

Wilbur is an affectionate boy who loves to lean on you for a cuddle and a fuss. Once settled in his new home he will make a fun and loving addition to his new family.
