Here's what the humans have to say about me:
We are open to Foster-to-Adopt program for Gavin. We will do our best to find a perfect home for Gavin to avoid any possible return. We are looking for a family who could give him unconditional love regardless his size and strength. Gavin is a perfect family/companion dog who enjoys any type of activities that the family may offer.
***ATTENETION***
We are looking for an experienced owner who is able to handle tugs at the leash when Gavin gets excited, direct Gavin when he barks, create a safe environment when visitors visit, able to follow trainer’s recommendation to continue train him.
After 3 years of adoption, Gavin was returned to our organization due to owner’s age. Gavin is a Golden Retriever Mix with a very mellow personality. He is a calm dog that adapts to a new environment very well. He gets along with children (from toddler to teenager) and strangers (regardless gender and size). Anyone can pet him and he also loves being pet. He is a smart dog and knows to use doggy door within 3 days by learning from other dogs. He is potty trained and never had any incident when living in a new environment. He knows commands “sit”, “paw” and “down”. He does not beg for food and always patiently wait for his food. He fits in parties/large gatherings very well.
