Meet Waylon!

Are you looking to truly make a difference in a shelter dog’s life?

Meet Waylon. Waylon is not for everyone. It’s safe to say 95% of homes will not be the right home for Waylon. We are looking for the 5% that can give this amazing soul the best chance at a fulfilled life. Highly Intelligent, athletic, eager to please and even more eager to learn- this guy craves mental stimulation and purpose. This is not a family pet. Waylon is looking for a quiet home with adults only that are dog savvy with no other pets, bonus points if you have a large fenced-in yard or live off of the grid. Yes, we know- that is a lot to ask. He is looking for supervised meetings with new people and no dog parks. Waylon has started playing in small controlled dog play groups. He loves to play chase, it’s absolutely amazing to watch him escape his worries for a bit and be a dog.
The reward waiting for you is Waylon’s absolute and pure devotion to you. The kind of love that we humans never deserve.
Waylon is a little over 4 years old and weighs around 45 lbs. There is a very small chance you will hit it off the first time you meet. If Waylon’s story were to be streamed, it wouldn’t be on Disney +. Maybe Starz, but probably HBO. Be prepared to stop in several times to slowly meet this boy and nurture a genuine connection with him. Waylon is looking for a hero, is that hero you? If you have any questions or would like to set up a time to meet Waylon, please call the shelter or email steph@safehavenhumane.com
