Story
Meet Gizmo, a Doberman Pinscher with a heart as big as his bark! Named after the most lovable gremlin, this handsome boy has all the charm, intelligence, and quirkiness to steal your heart—without the midnight mischief (unless you count his occasional chatter).Gizmo is a well-mannered gentleman in the home, fully house-trained and letting you know when he needs to go outside. He doesn’t need a crate and is perfectly behaved when left alone—no gremlin-like destruction here! However, he does have a strong opinion about, well, everything, and he’s not afraid to voice it. If you`re looking for a silent companion, Gizmo is not your guy, but if you appreciate a watchdog who will keep you informed about every squirrel, delivery truck, and suspicious leaf, he’s got you covered.This brilliant boy knows a long list of commands, including sit, down, bow, leave it, paw, and more. While he’s a genius, his leash manners are a work in progress—Gizmo is strong and prefers not to be walked much because of his pulling. He adores stuffed animals and squeaky ball toys, and nothing makes him happier than being close to his people.Gizmo thrives in an adult household and would do best in a home without young children, as he’s a big guy who prefers a mature crowd. He’s a wonderful solo dog, and while his feelings about cats remain a mystery, he’s ready to be your one-and-only. He also has some sensitivity around his collar, possibly from past trauma, so a gentle approach is best.Bath time? He’ll tolerate it. Petting and affection? Yes, please! Gizmo is looking for a home where he can be loved, spoiled, and understood—where his personality can shine as brightly as his namesake’s adorable face. If you’re ready for a loyal, talkative, and endlessly lovable companion, Gizmo is waiting to meet you!Interested in adopting this dog?
