My story

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

Introducing Gavin - a charming mixed breed pup with a shaggy, scruffy coat and an even bigger heart! At 3 years old, Gavin is a friendly, playful companion who thrives on building bonds with the special people in his life. While he loves playing with other canine friends, Gavin does best in an adult-only home with no small animals.

Gavin will benefit immensely from a patient, relationship-based training approach that reinforces positive behaviors through praise and rewards. With time, structure, and plenty of playtime, this smart, eager-to-please pup will blossom into a wonderfully behaved companion. Gavin's ideal home is one filled with gentle, understanding owners who can provide him with the love, exercise, and guidance he needs to reach his full potential. If you're ready to welcome a unique, affectionate mixed breed into your family, Gavin could be the pup for you!
