Meet Gordon! This scruffy young guy arrived at a local shelter as a stray, scared and with bleeding paws. At first, he was defensive and unsure, especially when leashed. However, Gordon has transformed into a lovable little terrier who seeks comfort and affection once he trusts you. He is about 1-2 years old and weighs 10 lbs, a mix of Maltese and Jack Russell Terrier. His coat is scruffy and will just need occasional grooming and trimming. Gordon would thrive in a calm adult home that provides him the time and space he needs to feel secure. While he gets along with smaller dogs, he can become intimidated if they approach him too quickly. It appears he was wee pad trained, so he’ll require gentle socialization and patience as he acclimates to new experiences. Ready to welcome this sweet boy into your home?
