Wilbur A826

My story

🐾 Wilbur – A Gentle Soul in Search of Security Breed: Chihuahua Age: Approximately 10 Months Weight: ~10–12 lbs Neutered / Vaccinated / Microchipped Location: Currently in Board & Train Wilbur is a sweet and sensitive young dog with a gentle nature and a heart full of potential. He came into rescue alongside his brother, Orville, as a young puppy battling ringworm and lacking early socialization. As a result, Wilbur can be shy in new environments and needs time to build trust. He is currently thriving in a structured board-and-train program, where he lives in a home environment and continues to make daily progress. Wilbur is especially comforted by the presence of other dogs and has formed a strong bond with a nurturing, confident canine companion. He would do best in a home with another friendly, balanced dog to help guide him. Though initially timid, once Wilbur feels safe, he blossoms into a devoted and affectionate companion. He enjoys gentle attention, relaxing in a cozy pen, and playing with toys. He is both house-trained and crate-trained and responds well to positive reinforcement and routine. Wilbur Would Thrive In: A quiet, patient home committed to slow introductions and decompression A family with older children or a dog-savvy household A home with a confident resident dog An environment that offers structure, predictability, and love Wilbur is a truly special pup who is learning to trust and enjoy the world at his own pace. With continued guidance and a compassionate home, he will become a loyal and loving family member.
