Gonzo is currently in foster care and ready for adoption via our virtual process!
Gonzo is a one-year-old male mixed breed dog currently weighing 65 lbs.
Gonzo just arrived and is still getting settled in, so we're just beginning to learn who they are. Right now, everything is new-new people, new sounds, new routines-and we're giving them time to relax, decompress, and show us their true personality at their own pace.
Here's what we know so far from his time in foster care: https://acrobat.adobe.com/id/urn:aaid:sc:VA6C2:8e119478-49cf-4d99-ab10-a0414b2c2e8a
It took a bit for Gonzo to settle in but he is doing great. He is very loving and playful. His foster says "He's just such a handsome and sweet boy with the best big floppy ears and we all love him so much. He's still got some puppy awkwardness and goofiness and he makes us laugh a lot.". He is very bright and wants to please. He will benefit from additional training to be the best dog he can be, he still is somewhat nervous outside but is already starting to overcome that. He loves to cuddle and be pet , he is social and likes other dogs and likes to be around people.
He is neutered, vaccinated, microchipped, and has had preventative treatments to ensure he is ready for his next steps.
Submit an adoption survey from above and our team will reach out via phone or email (check spam) to schedule a counseling call. For any additional questions, please contact fosternyc@bestfriends.org.
Please remember, pets cannot be held or reserved.
ABOUT: MIXED BREED DOG BREED
The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
