Story
Name: GregoryAge: 3 years old Breed: Mastiff mixLikes: Being around people, watching tv with his "person", going for walks, to snuggle, playing fetch both on land and in water, his toy ball, stick or frisbee, being groomed (easy to bathe and trim nails), car rides, treat puzzles or hunting for treats in the house Dislikes: Being alone!What would the ideal home: Gregory would fit into almost any family who can give him lots of cuddles and make sure he gets exercise, as long as he's not left alone a lot. He is happiest when he has someone around although he does very well being left alone for a few hours. (especially once he settles in and knows you will return) Good with cats: YesGood with dogs: Yes, but recommend a home without a dominant male dog. He is more of a people dog and doesn't seem to really play with another dog.Good with children: Yes - Gregory has been very good around small children but if you get him excited he can get a bit bouncy. He is very easy to calm down if you do get him excited. Temperament: Friendly, PlayfulMotivators: Food/treats. He loves veggies (celery/carrots) and fruit and peanut butter!Known commands: "Sit" , "Wait" for food or to catch up on walks, "Drop it" for toys, "down", "touch", "stay", "come", "spin", he also has very good recallHouse trained: YesCrate trained: Yes, but doesn't love it. Recommended to only crate for short periods. He is not destructive at all when left alone, he usually just sleeps.How long will it take to settle into a new environment: a couple daysAny special needs or traits the adopter should know: Although Gregory likes to be active he does not have endurance. He will play for awhile and then rest. He loves to go for walks and will pull a bit at first but then settle into whatever pace you set for him. Gregory loves to go for ´sniffing' walks. Gregory is not afraid of loud noises. He sits calmly through thunderstorms and loves to sit on a covered porch and watch the rain. We have had construction going on next door and I have taken him on busy streets and to the train station and nothing loud seems to bother him. Gregory has been around lots of small animals outside. At first he wanted to chase the bunnies but now just watches them hop by. He was curious about the roosters, ducks and chickens but does not bark or try to chase them. Medical: On special joint diet, has 3 legs and 1 eye! If you think Gregory is the one for you - fill out an application today!

Dislikes: Being left alone, other dogs. What would be the ideal home? With someone who is either home often or can come home for lunch during their work day.

Sit, lay down, paw. House trained? Yes, for the most part. Will have the odd pee overnight if her routine is thrown off or if she drinks too much water close to bedtime. Crate trained? Yes, for during the day only. She struggles with separation anxiety and will whine in her crate at times, but has medication that helps. She cannot stand being in her crate when someone is in the house. How long will it take to settle into a new environment? 1-2 weeks. Any special needs or traits an adopter should know?Cara has one beautiful eye. Cara has separation anxiety and is on a few medications for it that seem to mitigate it. She still struggles but it is more manageable with the medication.Cara has guard dog traits in the house and will take about 10 minutes to warm up to strangers in the house. She doesn't like being approached abruptly either. She does best with slow, gentle introductions outside. Treats always help! If you think Cara is the one for you - fill out an application today!
