My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Animal Profile: Goose is an estimated 2-year-old, 50 lb neutered male bully mix who came into the overcrowded Stockton animal shelter as a stray. Goose is so well mannered and a joy to be around; he loves to have his hair brushed, getting treats and pets. He does fabulous in doggy playgroups but does get super bummed to go back in his kennel. This dog is a social love bug and needs out of the shelter!

Foster Update: Goose is the sweetest little short stack and just so hilarious! He provides endless entertainment with his goofy antics. He is good with other dogs, and good in his crate. He goes in on command and is calm while crated, even during a longer work day. He can be a bit barky with strange noises but is otherwise quiet, so he may be OK with apartment living depending on the community. When out of the crate he entertains himself with toys and making funny faces at you, and he love*love*loves to snuggle. He is learning obedience training and leash training and would benefit from someone willing to work with him on these as it's all new to him. He is a bit all over the place on leash and does well with a training collar but he's not reactive. He had a few potty accidents in the beginning (we don't think he'd lived inside before) but increasing supervision has eliminated accidents for a couple weeks now. Goose has not had any exposure to cats or kids, but he is gentle and also playful so would likely be okay with dog-savvy kids. He is a well-tempered dog but a little rough around the edges so would likely be best matched with an owner who has *some* dog experience. 

Adoption Info: Adoption fee is $550, which includes spay/neuter, current on DPPV & Bordetella. All adoption fees are donations to a Washington non-profit corporation and all donations go to benefit the animals in our rescue.
