Check out our sister brand, Kinship, for vet chat, a nutrition calculator, basic obedience training, and (much) more. So you're never flying solo in this pet parenting thing.
Wilfred came to us from a local shelter after being found as a stray. He may have had a rough start, but this delicate soul is full of love and resilience.
Due to a medical condition, Wilfred had to have both of his eyes removed, but that hasn’t slowed him down one bit. He still enjoys long walks and is always ready to share his affection! Wilfred has also been diagnosed with Diabetes Insipidus, a condition caused by a hormone imbalance. This is easily managed with a pill he takes twice a day, and he’ll need yearly check-ups with his vet to ensure everything is in order.
Though he’s shy at first, once Wilfred gets to know you, he’ll recognize your voice and scent anywhere, happily following your lead. He’s a classic lap dog, content with a good chin scratch and a cozy snuggle. Wilfred would thrive in a calm and loving home, preferably with teens or adults who understand his needs. He also gets along well with other gentle and easygoing dogs.
If you’re looking for a loyal companion who’s overcome the odds and is ready to give all his love, Wilfred is your guy!
