My story

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

Meet Gauge, a 3 year old, 72lb Dutch Shepherd mix! Gauge is that dream companion who glues himself to your side in the sweetest way. He’s tall, handsome, and goofy in all the right ways — a true Velcro dog who wants nothing more than to be part of whatever you’re doing. Laundry? He’s supervising. Movie night? He’s on the couch before you are. Someone else is in your lap? No problem, Gauge will squeeze himself right in. 💕

He’s an affectionate, easygoing guy who reads the room well. Want a playmate? He’ll happily wrestle and romp with other dogs. Want a relaxed afternoon? He’ll chill out and chew a bone. His absolute favorite thing is sitting on the porch beside you, watching deer and squirrels like it’s his full-time job. 🦌🌿

Here’s what makes Gauge a total catch:
✔️ Fully crate trained
✔️ Potty trained
✔️ Gentle taking treats
✔️ Comes when called
✔️ Dog-friendly
✔️ Medium/low energy
✔️ Great house manners (as long as snacks aren’t on the counter 👀)

Gauge has such a big heart and truly wants his person. He’s polite in public, thoughtful with new dog friends, and always ready for belly rubs. He’d prefer a cat-free home, but otherwise he’s the easiest, most lovable buddy you could ask for.
