Gibson's foster mom reports:
He knows the commands sit, lay down, want a treat?, wana go out? down, up, no, where is your toy? and over here. He is very lovable and adores his tummy rubbed. He loves to snuggle and be with whomever will give him the time of the day. He gets super excited once he gets to know the family members of the household and greets you with whimpers and excessive wags of his tail. He is great going for walks and loves to roam and explore. He loves to hear voices, it makes him feel safe and happy. He loves to get baths and tells you when he needs to go out. He will be your buddy, friend and companion.
