Guero, affectionately called “Hero” by his foster family, is a 9-year-old golden sweetheart who loves to be loved, and to be petted and played with, of course! Guero is not a Velcro dog, but he does follow and check-up on where everyone is at. He will choose to lay by your feet, or across the room or in the next room or by the open front door.
Guero may be shy at the beginning, but as he becomes more comfortable in his new home, his tail wagging increases, and he can easily be tempted to play with toys or climb
up in your lap. He is also perfectly happy to keep all four on the floor with his head on your lap for his loving. He is such a sweet loving dog, and he tries so hard to please the people in his pack. He will give kisses in the face if allowed, but he responds well if he is told no and then gives sweet kisses and nibbles on ears instead!
Guero meets people and dogs well on walks. His fosters describe him as sweet, loving, gentle natured and social. He was raised with a small dog and plays well with his foster’s golden retriever. He does guard “space” demonstrated by barking at passersby outside the home and attempting to herd humans out of his space. He does respond positively to limiting the out of house stimuli. He also gives up the “space” easily to his pack leaders. Guero would do best with humans who are able to take control of the space in an alpha way and would benefit from ongoing training. He would love to be in a home with children, but best in a home where they can respect his space when needed.
Guero loves playing with stuffed toys and making them squeak but is not destructive. He is very attentive and waits patiently for his meals. He will get on the furniture if allowed, but he responds well if told no. He absolutely loves to go out on walks, which means he tends to get overly excited when putting on his harness, getting out the front door and down the driveway to the sidewalk. He eventually calms down within a few houses down the street, but it takes a bit of coaxing with treats and verbal cues and some patience and he’s calming a little quicker every day. He shows no adverse behavior if he does not go on walks every day. He seems very happy to chew on a nylabone, play with his stuffed animals or his tennis balls, or simply lay near his people. He also enjoys playing fetch in the backyard or just lying in the sun. Guero would benefit from additional training for walking on lead and preparing to go for a walk.
If you’re seeking a loving and devoted canine companion, who thrives in an environment with only a few people coming and going, I’m the perfect dog for you. I love being with my people, I am willing and able to work around your schedule. I would be good in a home with children and other dogs, but I could also be happy as a single dog in the home. I would love a home with a backyard to run and play in as well as sunbathe, and daily walks or runs would be appreciated!
My ideal home would be with anyone who is patient and willing to work with me. I want to learn and be the best that I can be for you. With your commitment to my training, I will flourish and bring endless joy to your life!
