Gizmo is the sweetest boy! He is happy to sit quietly against you. Never growls or exhibits any aggresion. Usually very quiet unless placed in a crate and then gets panicky and vocalizes his displeasure ! He gets along great with other dogs, no interactions with cats or kids while he stayed with me, so unknown about that. Seems nearly perfect with pottying outside as long as he gets frequent breaks outdoors. I used a halo vest on him to help with navigation as he is completly blind and he did great with that. Not interested in toys. He is just a great little snuggle bug. Gizmo is looking for his forever home!
