Wylie is that perfect age, the best combination of young-dog fun and already knowing how to live in a home!
Wylie does pull a little on leash, but he’s a smart boy who will continue to improve with practice. His dream home would have a fenced yard and another medium-to-large pup to play with. He's not a big fan of car rides; he'll rsvp no to anything with a long car ride.
Because of his play style and energy, Wylie is not a match for cats, small dogs or other small animals.
This sweet, social guy is ready for a family who wants a fun companion to share their adventures.

Adopting a large dog in Brentwood
Large dogs need room to stretch out and plenty of exercise: at least one good walk a day, and a secure yard is a bonus. Check your lease too, as some landlords limit the size or breed of dog.
Start training from day one. A big dog who walks nicely on a leash and doesn't jump up is a pleasure to live with, and many rescues can recommend a local trainer.
