Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Hello World,
My name is Giovanni (but you can call me Gio!) I’m a handsome bichon boy, about 18 months young, who is full of love and promise! Mom says I’m sweet, happy, cuddly, and active - 15 pounds of cuteness. She says I have the cutest smile and have the cutest look when I’m being petted! (You see I have already worked my charm on her – and I wasn’t even trying very hard!)
I am a champion snuggler and love nothing more than to cuddle up with someone. I can stay happily curled up in someone’s lap for the longest time. I’m friendly and gentle with children but I’m also a young guy with lots of energy. I enjoy walks and playing in the yard – and playing with my toys. I like to toss them in the air and try to catch them. (I’m getting pretty good too!)
Mom says I’m housebroken and love to go in and out of the house with my doggy foster brothers and sister. I play well with the other dogs, and we have lots of fun together. I’m also crate trained, eager to please, in great health and very trainable.
Mom thinks that I will need a forever person who will set something she calls “good boundaries” for me and who will teach me how to be the bestest boy I can be. I love being with women because sometimes I am fearful around men. Like a lot of young dogs, I need an owner who can help me live up to my great potential!
I hope that you are that person. If you are, please fill out an application and ask for Gio. I am so looking forward to meeting you!
Tail wags and kisses,
Gorgeous and Grateful Gio
