Gordon

Gorgeous Gordon is a friendly, affectionate and playful chap with a sensitive side. He can be a bit nervous when meeting new people but quickly warms up when given time, space and a few treats, often giving his seal of approval by offering up his back end for scratches! His favourite things in life are walks, playing with his toys, food and snuggling with his trusted people. He can get worried by loud noises and busy environments when out and about so will need an owner who will be able to read his body language and provide him with reassurance and guidance where needed. He is an intelligent boy who builds strong bonds and loves his food so has lots of potential for training. Gordon has been through a lot in his life and is looking for a home where he can be the centre of attention. He will make a loving and fun companion for the person or family lucky enough to adopt him.

Other Notes

Gordon could live with sensible teenagers of 14+ providing they have lived with a dog before and will not be intimidated by his excitable nature at times. He could also live with another dog that is confident and well adjusted, subject to a successful meet at Mayhew. He could live in a flat as long as there is access to a garden. Gordon has been neutered, microchipped and vaccinated and is up to date with flea and worm treatment. He has also been health checked and behaviourally assessed.
