🌟 Meet Brisbane, the adorable Gentle Explorer with those irresistible puppy eyes that could melt the coldest of hearts! At just 3 years old, this gorgeous boy has a velvet-soft coat and a heart fully equipped to heal. He was rescued from a crowded California shelter, arriving underweight at only 38 pounds. But guess what? He’s blossoming into a healthy, robust pup aiming for that fabulous 50+ mark! 💖 This sweet soul is not just a pretty face; he’s a heart-capturer! With many loving nicknames (we’re particularly fond of 'Goose'—short for silly goose), he lights up with a smile every time he hears it. 🥰 After spending time without enough food, his food motivation is simply off the charts! It’s pure joy to watch him wait patiently for his dish to be set down, eagerly anticipating that joyful cue to dig in. And when you give him treats? Oh boy! That deep "I love you" gaze he gives is nothing short of heartwarming. 🤗 Post-walk, it’s nap time! Brisbane curls up just like a little cat for a snooze fest, complete with the cutest little snores that will make you chuckle. 💤 When it comes to walks, he’s a bundle of excitement, often hopping for attention! But don’t worry—this gentle giant is easily redirected. His foster parent says he’s a fast learner with a charming goofy side, and he already knows to sit on command. With a little practice, he could blossom into an excellent jogging partner. 🏃‍♂️ Brisbane would do wonderfully with a feisty female canine companion or could be your one-and-only best buddy. With just a sprinkle of patience and a bucketful of love, this sweet pup is destined to shine! 🌈 💕 So, are you ready to give Brisbane the fresh start he absolutely deserves?
