My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Gibson recently spent time in a holiday foster home, where he showed just how sweet and adaptable he can be. He walks well on a harness without any issues and loves snuggling into blankets or anything soft. Though shy at first—often retreating under the bed when returning home—he warmed up significantly over the foster period, following the adults around the house and even starting to play with dog toys.

Gibson was great with the foster's two cats, showing no aggression, growling, or attempts to bite. He's calm, sweet, and loves affection, often pawing at you for more pets if you stop. While not fully housebroken yet, he made progress and is learning quickly.

Medicating him can be a bit challenging, but with patience and consistency, he could adapt over time. Gibson would thrive in a loving, adult only, home that can continue building his confidence and training while showering him with the affection he clearly adores.
