Walter is about 7 years old. He's a Tibetan spaniel, quite possibly purebred. He gets along well with other dogs and is very quiet and sweet. He can be a little shy at first but will warm up and be loving and cuddly when he gets to know you. Walter had bladder stones when he came out of the shelter and is on a special diet. You don't necessarily have to keep him on that diet, but he does require top-quality dog food, or for you to cook for him. But his sweetness makes that all worthwhile. He weighs about 15 pounds.
