Webley - Mutt Male Dog For Adoption in Denver , Colorado, USA

Dog Breed: Corgi.

Webley is a very sweet, special boy who needs a gentle, dedicated, and patient human companion of his own. After his original owner passed away, he was given away by the owner’s family, then found abandoned on the streets of Colorado Springs, and ended up in the shelter. He has been through a lot and we will be very selective about his adoptive home to ensure his hard times are officially behind him. Here are the key details regarding Webley's needs and personality: - Age & Ideal Home: He is approximately five years old and 50#. He needs a cat-free home (he thinks cats are toys) and would do best in an adult-only or home with a respectful child 12+ as young children make him nervous. A fenced in yard would be ideal but a home without many stairs is more important. - Mobility & Exercise: Webley enjoys short, frequent, non-challenging daily walks and car rides. His back legs are a bit weak, though improving. He would do best in a home with minimal stairs and an owner who is physically able to assist him up and down stairs and lift him into a car when necessary. And also increasing his activity level as his weight loss journey continues. - Diet & Health: He came to us severely obese and is currently on a healthy, high-protein, home-cooked diet with fish oil supplements for his joints. Commercial kibble isn’t going to be a good choice for him right now. He is looking for an adopter willing to continue vet advised home-cooked meals or commit to portioned fresh dog food. - Behavior & Other Pets: Webley gets along well with other dogs (and particularly enjoys the company of his Corgi “sister”), though he can get overstimulated by larger or high-energy dogs. He is non-destructive and doesn't care much for toys—he simply wants affection, walks, car rides, and food. He is food reactive with other dogs and so he must be fed separately. He also gets vocal and barks loudly around mealtimes. - Crate & Grooming: Webley is kennel trained and relies on his safe space, especially with a comfortable therapeutic mat. He tolerates baths and grooming well, but he is terrified of nail trims, so we strongly recommend having a veterinarian handle his nails.
