Story
Gibbons came in as a shy boy. He was thin, and tested positive for lyme. He was placed in a loving foster home and treated and while there he had the chance to build confidence and learn how to be the best boy! Gibbons is ready for his forever family! Here are some notes from his foster mom:`He`s a sweet loving boy! He`s pretty much house trained now (5 hour intervals through the day and 8.5 hours overnight) and is learning his vocabulary of sit, stay, leave it, let`s go, no, etc. His leash manners are still a work in progress as he can get really stimulated with all the sights and sounds of the farm. He`s eating well and finishes all his food by bedtime. He will eat on his own but I noticed he eats much more when I`m standing with him and encouraging him to eat.`Another great update from Gibbons and his foster family.. this time Gibbons has written his new potential family a letter.. Dear Forever Family,Hi I`m Gibbons. I’m a very special Whippet cross looking for my forever home, and I can’t wait to tell you a little about myself.First things first: I’m fun! I have a happy heart, a curious mind, and a whole lot of love to give. I’m the kind of dog who wants to know what’s happening, what you’re doing, where we’re going, and whether I can be part of it all. Life is an adventure, and I’m ready to explore it with you!I’m energetic and playful, with a lovely Whippet side that means I enjoy a good zoomie, a nice run, and a chance to stretch my legs. But after I’ve had my fun, I’m also very happy to settle in, relax, and soak up affection. A cozy spot, a kind human, and some gentle attention? Sounds perfect to me.I’m a loving dog who enjoys being around my fosters and building a bond with my family. I’m curious about the world and eager to learn, especially when treats, praise, and kindness are involved. I’d love a family who will continue to help me grow, show me new things, and celebrate all the wonderful things that make me who I am.I promise to bring laughter, companionship, and plenty of happy moments into your home. I may be a little silly, a little speedy, a little curious about everything, and in need of a little more training, but that’s all part of my charm!If you’re looking for a loyal friend with a great personality, a playful spirit, and lots of love to share, I might just be the dog you’ve been waiting for.I can’t wait to meet you!With lots of tail wags and love,Your future best friend, Gibbons`
