My personality

My story

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

Meet Goose! This goofy goober transferred to us from the San Diego Humane Society!
Goose was previously adopted from SDHS and returned days later after his owners realized they had no time to care for a young and active pup. Goose is an extremely goofy, bouncy, and energetic ball of love! He is having the time of his life with his new pals and loves being a part of the pack! His quirky, left-sided head tilt adds character to his already silly self!

Health considerations: Goose had a right cryptorchid (retained testicle) that was removed without incident and is resolved. He displays a left-sided head tilt which does not affect his balance or quality of life. Due to this history, our vet thinks he was born with congenital birth defects.

Regarding COVID-19 and other contagious illnesses: Please reschedule any visits if you are sick.
