Walt

My story

Little Walt arrived at NCCR on 7/12/25, transferred from an overcrowded shelter to give him his best chance at finding his happily ever after. This little 10 lb. pup is thought to be a Dachshund mix, but he likely has some mystery breeds in his heritage as well. He is hoping to soon find a new family to give him the love and commitment he deserves. His poor little face is so worried and sad, he just wants someone who will comfort him and show him that everything will be alright. Cute as a button and perfectly pocket-sized, Walt is waiting to meet you! He wants to make sure you know that just because he’s little doesn’t mean he’ll be a total piece of cake! He will need daily training and good supervision, lots of exercise and playtime, and all your love and patience while he learns. A puppy’s a puppy, no matter how small! If you have the time, energy, and commitment to 12+ years of wonderful Walt, give this cutie a look. If you think you might be interested in adopting, your first step should be to complete an Adoption Application found at caninerescue.org *After you have completed your application, you will get a confirmation that we have received your application. It takes a lot of time to process the applications, so we ask for your patience while we do so. If you see that the dog you were interested in has been adopted it means there were many applications for that dog and we did not get as far as processing your application before a home was found. We welcome you to apply again if you see another dog that interests you. If you have a question, please email your question to adoptions@caninerescue.org. It is much easier and quicker for us to respond by email as we receive many phone calls each day. We do adopt out of state, however we do not transport or ship dogs. Potential adopter must be able and willing to travel to the Rescue to meet the dog they are interested in. *PLEASE double check all of the phone numbers that you provide as if they are incorrect, we will be unable to process your application. Please also let your references know that someone from NCCR will be calling them. Most adoption team members call from their personal phone so advise your references that there may be an unknown number or a private number calling them. NYS Registration #RR028

If you have any questions or would like to adopt Walt, please reach out to the adoption group directly. PetSmart Charities does not facilitate the adoption process. Thank you.
