Meet Gio! This magnificent, lovable pup is not just a big bundle of joy—he's also got a hilarious goofy streak that keeps everyone laughing! 🌟 With his heart of gold and a fiercely protective nature, Gio is looking for that special someone who can guide him through life's adventure. He’s a true gem, but like any diamond in the rough, he needs a little time and patience to shine. ✨ Now, here’s the scoop: Gio might be a bit shy at first, particularly with the gentlemen of the world. But don’t worry! With a few treats and some gentle encouragement, he’ll warm up to you quicker than you can say “cuddle time!” 🥰 Once he trusts you, you’ll find a loyal companion who loves nothing more than being right by your side, whether you're binge-watching your favorite show or tending to the garden (just a heads up, the hose may become his new favorite toy!). 🎥🌿 Gio is also quite the friendly fellow with other pups, enjoying playtime without a fuss, and he’s even a bit feline-like, sneaking around with stealth mode on when he's observing the squirrels outside! 🐿️ Now, he's still mastering some of those pesky puppy habits—like leash manners and jumping boundaries—and he can scale a 4–5ft fence if he sets his mind to it! So, a little training from a confident handler is just what the doctor ordered! 🏃‍♂️💪 He thrives on clear boundaries and structure, and he’s an amazing learner with the right guidance. While he’s good with kids and other dogs, it’s best if his new family understands his fear-based reactivity. He’s even muzzle trained (and he finds comfort in it!), which is just adorable! Just imagine the bond you’ll create as you help him feel secure while he lovingly protects his family. 🏡 If you're looking for an incredible, devoted companion who has a heart just as big as his paws, Gio is the pup for you! He’s ready to share his love and loyalty with someone special. So don’t wait—*apply through the Buddy App* to bring Gio into your loving home! ❤️
