Meet Parker

Meet pint-sized Parker! At just 35 pounds and about a year old, this adorable and endearing little squirt came to us from an Utah shelter where he was nothing short of terrified. We know very little about Parker’s life before he got to us but it likely wasn’t a great experience. Considering how afraid he was initially, he adapted amazingly quickly to his foster home where he learned people could be trustworthy and the world could feel safe.

Parker can still be a little reserved meeting new people, but once he knows you, he gives you his whole heart. He bonded quickly with his foster family, both human and canine. He shows his sweetest smile, grinning with one side of his mouth anytime he is excited. He gets along well with other dogs and currently lives with three! He is very playful with those dogs who are game, and we think he’ll be happiest with a confident, playful dog in his new home to romp with and role model off of. Parker even gets along well with the family cat, realizing quickly who truly rules the roost. Parker spends his day relaxing on the couch while his parents work from home, heading out with his foster siblings a few times daily to play in the back yard or take a walk. Any movement by the door to the garage elicits excitement with the hope of getting to take a ride in the car with mom or dad and one of the other dogs.

Parker loves to run, though he doesn’t currently seem interested in fetch. He’s just a moderate energy fella who will be happy with daily walks, hikes, or runs and some play time. Parker is a quick study and already knows how to sit to go in or out of the house, lie down, and working on stay. He is the only dog his fosters have had that figured out the handles on the patio door, quickly learning he could let himself out if his foster parents didn’t remember to lock the door!!! Parker has graduated to off leash privileges and is proving to have an excellent recall. He's also showing us that he really enjoys hiking and to play in the water! Parker will make a super outdoor adventure companion and he would love to live with a confident doggy sibling to play with and learn from (and maybe a cat too!).

Due to our small volunteer team, we can’t respond to inquiries to this listing. To learn more about this dog and our adoption process or to apply, visit wbcrescue.org. Thank you for considering adoption!
