About Hair Gel

We’re not in Kansas anymore! Meet Hair Gel! This lively little Cairn Terrier is ready to captivate your heart. Small and polite, Hair Gel is bursting with personality—outgoing, funny, and sociable, he plays well with both dogs and cats. At around a year and a half old, he was found as a scruffy stray, but since getting a good scrub and a trim, he’s transformed beautifully in his foster home. Thanks to his big foster brother Teddy, he quickly learned basic commands like Sit, Come, and High Five. He did exceptionally well at an adoption event, charming everyone with his belly rub requests. If you have kids, they should be over 10 due to his petite size. Active and playful, Hair Gel loves to snuggle after some playtime. He sleeps soundly in his crate and wouldn’t mind sharing your bed if that’s your style. With no food aggression, separation anxiety, or resource guarding, he walks well on a leash and is eager to be your little buddy. If you’re after a companion filled with snuggles and funny antics, Hair Gel is your guy.
