This immensely happy guy is Wilbur. Wilbur is a 3-year-old, 80-pound pooch who is beloved for his easy going nature and friendly demeanor. Wilbur loves to play with other toys and dogs, so if you have another feisty dog in the home, Wilbur may make a great companion. He knows the cues for sit and paw and will enthusiastically shake anyone's hand. Wilbur also has great leash manners, which is good for a big guy like him. We know from Wilbur's previous guardian that he is house trained too.
