About Gaston

Gaston is a lively, smart, and affectionate pup waiting for a loving home. He loves to play fetch and has a unique play style: after retrieving his toy, he’ll drop it at your feet and play-bow, inviting you to toss it again. While he enjoys games with his people, he prefers to be the only dog in the household and thrives best in a calm environment without kids under 12. Gaston is still getting used to being touched, so he needs patient companions who understand that he likes to set the pace. If you’re seeking a playful buddy, Gaston is eager to meet you!
