Description

Dog Breed: American Staffordshire Terrier / Black Labrador Retriever / Mixed (short coat). **Wallie was enrolled in the Paws in Prison Program for 8 weeks of obedience training. She will be at the North Central Unit in Calico Rock. She will be crate trained, house trained, learn manners and she will learn lots of tricks as well! Wallie will be looking for a forever home before she graduates in September, so if you are interested in meeting her, please contact us. Read more about her below… Wallie has been in a loving home since she was born. She is a very affectionate dog, wanting close touching and belly rubs. Uses her paws like hands and will try to grab your hand or arm to snuggle with you. She is attached to people, and will get anxious if left alone without something to do. She is a strong animal that plays hard, loves to fetch balls and frisbees, and splash in the river. Has successfully been around other dogs and older kids and usually is timid and submissive at first, but playful after warming up. She is afraid of thunderstorms. Wallie was just too hyper and strong for the older couple that took her in when she was 7 weeks old. She needs an active family or person to take her in and make her part of the family. If you would like more information or to meet Wallie, please go to our website at .schspets and complete an adoption application. Someone will contact you after that! You can also contact the shelter at 870-269-5200.
