They call me Gooseeeee!!! I am a fun loving 10 pound bundle of joy. I did not start out that way though. I was locked in a crate for 20 hours a day, way to small for even my small size. I was also severely malnourished. As a result, my back legs bow out and i walk funny. I was checked out by an orthopedist, and he said there is nothing they can do for me, and whoever adopts me will just need to love my funny gait. Because of my neglectful past I need a few weeks to warm up to my new owner but once I do, I am a lap dog. I am 100 percent housebroken and I just want to chill all day.
I was so neglected that I was even muzzled most of the day so I could not bark, bite or lick. I had a very rough 2 years so anyone who adopts me will near to bear with me while I trust again. I would prefer a house with no small kids as they startle me with their high energy. I ride great in the car as a passenger and sometimes I like to drive, even though I do not have my license yet.
I walk well on a leash, and do not need a lot of exercise. Once I begin to trust, I am a total love bug. I cuddle under the covers whether on the couch or in a comfy bed. I am more of a people person as most other k-9's scare me.
Despite the way I walk and my jaded past I still just want to be loved unconditionally. I promise that once I am comfortable, my zest for life will shine through in everything I do.
Goose would be a great addition to any quiet home.
Goose is neutered, up-to-date on age-appropriate vaccinations, and microchipped.
