About Goose

Goose is a big love bug who thrives on companionship. This affectionate boy adores children and has bonded beautifully with his foster's 8-year-old. He’s eager to learn, especially when treats are involved, making training a joyful experience. At first, Goose can be a bit cautious around new faces, particularly unfamiliar men, often barking while out on walks. However, he responds well to slow introductions and quickly warms up to new friends. He’s crate trained during the workday and enjoys the freedom of roaming at night. Goose has a medium energy level and appreciates about three walks a day. Although he's currently working on gaining weight and settling his tummy, his joyful spirit shines through. If you’re looking for a loving family dog who is eager to please and ready to share some extra hound slobber, Goose might be your guy! What are you waiting for? Apply today!
