Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Basil! Basil is a gentle and loving 4-5 year old Golden Retriever mix looking for a forever home filled with love and understanding. She is thriving in our Pups on Parole program! Basil is ready to bring her peaceful and affectionate nature to a caring family. Basil is a loving companion with a heart of gold. She gets along well with other dogs and people, showcasing her sweet and adaptable nature. While initially shy, Basil warms up quickly and becomes a devoted member of the family. Basil is a breeze to groom, allowing all grooming procedures without any fuss. She is well-versed in basic commands such as sit, down, stay, come, shake, and even roll over! Basil is severely allergic to chicken, so a chicken-free diet is necessary for her well-being. Basil is working on reducing barking and resource guarding of food, especially while in a crate. Patient training and consistent positive reinforcement will help her build trust and overcome these behaviors. She needs to be fed separately from other pets during meals. Basil is the perfect fit for a loving family that can provide her with the attention and care she craves. An environment where she can enjoy walks, playtime, and snuggles is ideal. Due to her initial guarding tendencies around food, a home without small children is recommended. Basil sleeps peacefully on her dog bed. She is a low-maintenance yet loving companion. Basil is a wonderful, all-around great dog who will bring joy and love to any household. With a little patience and lots of love, she is sure to become a cherished member of her forever family. Basil is spayed, up-to-date on vaccinations and microchipped. If you're ready to welcome Basil into your home and heart, please submit an adoption interest form at ahome4spot.com
