Jack Russell Terrier and Terrier Dogs Available for Adoption in Waterbury, Connecticut

Meet Wilford Brimley!!!

Unlike his namesake, he will not try to sell you "Diabeetus" testing supplies but he will try to convince you that he is all you need.

He wants to meet everyone he sees. He gets along well with his foster siblings and all other dogs he has met. He would love another canine to play with in his forever home. He is indifferent about the resident foster cat but this cat is very dog savvy. He loves to cuddle and snuggle with his human but he is crate trained and does sleep in his crate overnight.

Wilford loves his walks and traveling in the car but also be happy with a fenced in yard. He loves affection but not while he is eating. He does best with a slow feeder bowl. He does respect other dogs during their food consumption events.

Wilford or Mr. Brimley, has been in foster for a few months, as we gave him time to decompress and become familiar with what is expected of a loved, balanced canine companion. His new family should expect to give him time to show what a good dog he can be. Wilford would thrive with Adult companionship as kids are too animated for him. An apartment is not ideal for him as he is still working on learning an appropriate inside voice.

Wilford Brimley would love a window seat as he takes great pleasure in people watching. If you think you can assist in his quest for balance, please fill out an application.
