🌟 **Meet WALLACE — A Gentle, Sensitive Soul Looking for His Safe, Loving Home**
*(D.O.B. 10.01.2020)*
Sweet Wallace was surrendered to us due to changes in his previous owners’ circumstances. He is a **beautiful, affectionate little boy** who bonds deeply with his people and just wants to feel safe and loved.

## 💛 About Wallace
Wallace is **microchipped, fully vaccinated, and now neutered**.
He has **no health issues**.
This lovely boy is:
• 🏡 **House-trained** (though he may “mark” a little at first as he settles)
• 🐾 **Friendly and sociable** with people and other dogs
• 🚶♂️ A **nice walker on the lead** — once you manage to get his harness on!
• 🧸 **Sweet, cuddly, and gentle** 99% of the time
He is a naturally sensitive dog who thrives with kindness, calm routines, and gentle handling.

## ⚠️ Wallace’s Sensitivity & Handling Needs
Wallace is overwhelmingly sweet-natured - but he has one important special need :
Because he can startle easily when picked up, or feel worried during certain handling situations (like at the vets or when putting on a harness), **he can occasionally have a momentary fear reaction and nip**.
This reflex lasts only a second — but it must be acknowledged to ensure he is safe and supported.
This is **the reason he was surrendered**, and it’s essential that his future family understands this.
With predictable routines, slow handling, and gentle reassurance, Wallace thrives.
He will do best in a home that:
• is **calm, patient, and experienced with sensitive dogs**
• understands **fear-based reactions** and can manage them safely
• avoids lifting unless necessary
• uses slow, positive introduction to harnessing and vet handling
• offers **kindness, stability, and reassurance**

## 🏡 The Home Wallace Needs
We will only consider a **genuine, loving, dog-experienced home** where Wallace will be safe, understood, and cherished.
He would enjoy living with **another friendly dog**, as he gains confidence from canine companionship.
Our requirements include:
✔️ Your own secure **private garden**
✔️ **No children under 10 years old**
✔️ A home where Wallace lives **purely as a loved family pet**
✔️ A willingness to **keep in touch** so we can support you at any time
Wallace needs a family with **time, affection, and gentleness** — people who appreciate a soft-hearted little dog who just needs understanding.

Adrian and the team at Friends inDEED have been wonderful. We were able to go meet our dog with her sisters and we were in frequent communication during the adoption, and since with updates etc. We were also provided with some food, and lent a harness & lead to bring her home. She has already been incredibly well trained for a rescue dog as we have had no toilet accidents and she is already wonderful on her lead.
