About Gravy

Meet Gravy, your big, gentle, slightly goofy best friend. At 8 years old and 80 pounds, he's a loving soul with an easygoing personality and an adorable welcome-home routine filled with wiggly excitement. Gravy enjoys short walks, car rides, treats, tug toys, and puzzle games. And let's not forget his favorite activity: blissful couch naps with his humans. Gravy is house-trained and knows several commands, including sit, paw, and lay down. He walks well on a loose leash, although he can get a bit overexcited when he spots another dog. Friendly with people, he does well with children, and in the past, has shared his home with another dog. However, cats remain an unknown for him. Gravy has some special needs such as limited hearing, allergies, recurring ear infections, and arthritis. He takes medication for his allergies and joint support, but despite his stiff hips and knees, he enjoys life to the fullest. He has made great strides in overcoming separation anxiety, but he prefers a home where someone is around most of the day. Gravy doesn't enjoy being confined in a crate, so a safe, designated area works best for him when left alone. He's not the most polished gentleman on the block, but his sweet nature, curious spirit, and joyful wiggles make him a true delight. Gravy is ready for a loving home that will appreciate his unique needs and enjoy the companionship of a big, cuddly buddy. Could Gravy be your new best friend?
