My story

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

Meet Goose! He's playful and adorable. He wants to sleep in late, take long walks, and play before bedtime.
7 years old, 21 lbs, Gustav is a Pomeranian mix with soft flowing locks. He's a fast learner and knows over 20 commands and tricks. If you teach him a trick, he'll pick it up in no time.
Goose is perfectly house trained and is great on a leash. He has some dog reactivity but he'll ignore most dogs if you give him a treat & prefers dogs that are smaller than him. He has lived with cats successfully.
Goose has been our beloved pet for 6 years. We wholeheartedly adore him and are heartbroken to say goodbye. Unfortunately, he has become anxious and stressed sharing his home with a 4 month old. His vet and trainer agree that while this beautiful, loving pup's anxiety does require management, a fresh start in a new place would make him a happier dog. He needs calm, quiet, & quality time with 1 or 2 adults in a child-free home. Could you be Gustav's new best friend?
