Biography

Walker was surrendered by his owners to CPR. He was a strange bird when he first came to us here at CPR in early 2016.  He was very tense and jumpy and sometimes hard to get a read on.  At first, he was rotated outside by himself, but now he lives in a cottage with about fifteen other dogs.  He seems much more comfortable with human touch and all of our caregivers are able to handle and pick him up. 

Walker is the definition of pure sass. In simpler terms, if you do something he doesn’t like, expect him to bring nothing but 100% attitude to the table. He’s a funny boy who is opinionated and doesn’t mind whining or barking at you if that means he gets his way. Walker has his days, and some are better than others. Walker is an old guy and unfortunately his age is catching up to him and beginning to show. He is starting to slow down in life and he’s not happy about it one bit. He likes to be on the move, and he likes to know what’s going on around him. He does not like to be left out, however. He’s not afraid to pitch a tantrum as long as you let him sit on your lap afterwords.

On Walker's good days, you can find him chilling on a caregiver's lap, begging for treats or digging in the mud (his favorite!) He also has lots of canine friends and other sanctuary companions at the farm that he enjoys the company of. When he’s satisfied and content, he’s very easy to deal with, and he listens very well! He’s just a grumpy old man who wants his way most days, and you bet we always give him his way, because if not, he will make sure you pay for it! He wants nothing more than to be included and spoiled to a never end.

Even though our sassy boy can be a handful, we enjoy his dramatic tantrums and sense of humor at the farm. You know the old saying, “It’s his world, and we’re just living in it” and we wouldn’t have it any other way.
