Walter has to be part Pointer! First of all he looks a lot like a Pointer and acts like one too! This boy is so happy and friendly. He just soaks up attention. He was zooming around like he'd never had anyone to play with. This boy has been at the shelter a while now. He has great shelter notes - low wagging tail, soft smiling mouth, wiggly, paid little attention to other dogs, and happily settled with a pig ear once back in his kennel. Hes so cute!
