History:
Wallace came into the Senior Staffy Club from the police after his owner disclaimed him following a change in their circumstances.
We don’t have any history on Wallace, but he has a very friendly nature and good manners.
He is a Staffy cross and is much taller than your average Staffy.
Current:
He has been a happy, jolly boy from the day her arrived with us.
He is always up for a game with you, but is equally happy entertaining himself with a ball.
He will sit and give a paw when asked and loves to have a good chat with you.
Walking:
Wallace loves his walks and he sits beautifully for his harness to be put on.
He walks very well on the lead, either next to you or just in front of you, only pulling slightly when he smells lovely smells.
When he arrived with us, he wasn’t neutered and he would spend forever sniffing every scent on the verges and in the hedgerows, so short walks would last hours. He now loves a good walk, just stopping for the occasional smell.
Being 7, he is only just a senior - he is a strong, fit lad and would happily walk for hours.
Wallace has not reacted to dogs when passing them in their gardens and he happily walks past on-lead dogs out walking. Wallace hasn’t been dog tested and hasn’t experienced off lead dogs approaching him whilst with us.
He hasn’t shown any reaction to passing traffic or horses down the lanes.
Travelling:
Wallace travels very well in the back of the van.
Vets:
The vet comes to kennels to see the dogs - Wallace was a riggle pants for his blood tests, but he was still a friendly boy.
Health:
He has had a full health check, including blood tests, and the vets have confirmed all his bloods are within the normal ranges for his age. He has recently been neutered and that’s all healed.
Ideal home:
• Wallace is fine with other dogs out and about, but we feel he would be better as the only pet in the home.
• Being a very tall boy, he feel he would be able to live with children aged 12 years plus. We feel he would be best suited with older teenagers who would like to play with him.
• We are unsure whether he is house trained, he is very clean in his kennel and hasn’t had any accidents in our sofa room.
• Wallace loves to snuggle up on the sofa next to you for a snooze while you stroke him. Not having any history on him, we aren’t sure whether he would be happy to be left alone, but he appears to have a calm nature.
Standard information:
Wallace is microchipped, vaccinated and neutered.
He can be rehomed anywhere in the UK, pending a successful home visit. However, any adopter should be willing to travel to meet him at least twice where he is now.
There is a non refundable adoption donation of £120 for Wallace and all money donated goes directly to helping all the Senior Staffies in our care.
