Hi, hi, hi. My name is Wiley! I am a YOUNG, playful little guy who was rescued from a hoarder. I was badly neglected and was real scared of people but with the help of my wonderful foster mom, I have come out of my shell and I'm learning how wonderful life can be. Almost everything I experience now is new to me...almost like a newborn pup! And when I was given toys....WOW!! I love my toys! And just like a young pup, I'll look to you for assurance and recognition that I'm a good boy, after all, I'm still a little shaky with my new life. My foster mom reports that I'm house-trained...whatever that means. I don't know how to ask to go out; she just opens the door, and that's where I do my business. When I do my thing outside, my foster mom says, "good boy, go potty" and somehow I know that's a good thing. But, gee, I'm pretty smart so I'm learning this new life pretty fast. I didn't even know what a leash was and it terrified me when I saw one. But now I feel safe and confident that it won't hurt me so I prance with my head and tail held high just like a prize show dog. I think I'd be good in a house with older, dog-savvy kids (no young children, please) and I don't mind other dogs just so I can be the boss. I've lived with a couple of cats and I'm curious about them. Do they like to play?When I go up to them and bark though my foster mom just yells, "no" and I stop. Gee...what's their purpose?? To sum it up....I need a home where I'll feel safe and secure and to feel that I'll be okay. With a little time and patience you will gain my trust and I will jump and twirl with joy when I see you!! I am being fostered in Michigan. Please contact my foster mom, Lara at Laramahr@yahoo.com or go to our website, www.eskierescuers.org and fill out an adoption application for me, me, me!
