Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Georgie is a playful, happy young boy who especially loves being in his foster's backyard. He likes playing there with one of his foster's resident dogs. But his favorite thing to do is catch the water that comes out of the backyard hose. He loves jumping up and getting wet when his foster mom is watering the yard. So adorable!
Indoors, Georgie becomes more of a chill boy. He loves giving kisses and hugs to his humans and playing with his stuffed animal toys. He gets along well with his foster's 5-year-old daughter. Then he's happy to lounge on the couch or in his bed with other dogs and takes naps in his kennel. He also sleeps there overnight.
Georgie also walks well on a leash. He's curious and interested in everything he sees and may bark when he sees another walking dog. He also enjoys car rides. At home, he listens well and is making good progress on his house- and obedience training.
Georgie will love a home where he can be part of the pack. He will love pet parents who can dedicate a lot of time, activity, and attention to him, and then be happy to relax with him. He likes dog buddies but is content to be alone - just wanting to be near his humans and able to see them.
Come meet this sweetie. Tell him you water hose your backyard and he'll run home with you!
