🐾 Hi, I’m Willa Rose!
I’m 6 months old, 28 lbs of pure wiggle, and I’m a Husky/Labradoodle mix! People say I “go with the flow,” and honestly… they’re not wrong. I love my toys (and, um, everyone else’s toys too). If it squeaks, crinkles, or bounces—I’m all about it!
My story? Well, I was found wandering 40 acres in Arkansas all by myself. No one ever came for me, and I was in pretty rough shape—covered in ticks and fleas, and the vet says I was malnourished. But look at me now! I’ve been treated, I’m feeling amazing, and I’m ready for the good life. I’m up to date on my vaccines and on heartworm prevention. Oh, and I’ll be spayed and microchipped on July 31st. Fancy, huh?
🎾 About Me
TOYS. Did I mention toys? Mine, yours, theirs—if it’s a toy, I love it! I play really well with other dogs, but because I’m a playful pup, I still need some guidance so it stays fun for everyone. I also love my walks! Morning and afternoon strolls? Yes, please. I’m polite on leash and learning fast, though I do get excited about squirrels and birds (what can I say, instincts!). With my Husky side, I need exercise and brain games to keep me happy. And hey, I’m still a puppy—so I’ll need your guidance to grow into my best self. I love snuggles and attention, but I’m also okay chilling on my own when playtime is done.
🏡 What I’m Working On
Crate training? Check—we’re practicing! Leash manners? Pretty good, but I need consistency. House training? Doing great—I hang out on a drag line in the house so I can keep learning good habits, and so far, so good. I’m also learning fun stuff like “sit,” “wait at the door,” “kennel up,” and “engage” (that means focusing on my person). Because of my smarts (and breed), I’ll need ongoing training to keep my brain busy.
I started life as a little wanderer, but now I’m dreaming of a forever home with people who are loving and consistent—and maybe a toy basket bigger than me!
💖 If you’re looking for an easy-going girl who loves walks, goes with the flow, and has a serious toy obsession, I’m your girl!
I’d love someone experienced with active, playful dogs like me!
