Hi there, I’m Wookie. I’m a bright-eyed 1-year-old with a warm nose and a tail that never quits wagging when I spot a friendly face. People tell me I have a gentle, easy-going way, and I think they’re right—the best moments are when I’m close to someone who talks softly and lets me lean in for a nose nudge. I’m curious about the world and bring a calm, hopeful energy to a room. I don’t rush; I watch, listen, and then step forward to say hello in my own quiet, friendly way. If you’re looking for a companion who’s affectionate without being loud, I might be the one who makes your heart a little lighter.
I’m a sociable soul and I’ve lived with other dogs before, so I’m comfortable around canine friends. I love daily chances to learn—new little moments, new people, new places—because life is full of tiny lessons, and I want to take them all in. My energy sits in a happy middle: not a constant whirlwind, but not a slow drift either. I’m adaptable at a moderate pace, and with patient encouragement I come out of my shell in new surroundings. I’m happy indoors and outdoors, and I’m content as long as I have someplace safe to explore and someone who stays calmly by my side as I grow more confident.
Because I’ve had a history of digging, I’ll need a home with secure footings—something that keeps me safely contained and happily curious. I also need secure outdoor access, like an enclosed backyard or a connected enclosure, so I can wander a little, sniff a lot, and still feel protected. I don’t have any known child-related issues, and I’d welcome a family that’s ready to introduce me to daily life with a patient, gentle routine. I’ll need to meet any dogs in my new home, so we can all make sure we’re a good match before I settle in. If this sounds like your kind of rhythm, I’d love to meet you and start a new chapter together.
Come say hello at the shelter and see if we click, or start an application to adopt. I’m ready to bring your days some light—and a lot of wagging.
