Gideon is Looking For: This cutie (what a mix he must be, with that coloring, those markings!) ended up in the shelter through no fault of his own. He's eagerly looking forward to once again having his own humans for long sniffy walks, romps in the park, and all the adventures they can dream up. Trips to the beach - the mountains - the toy aisle of your local pet emporium all sound great. Meeting new pup and people pals along the way is high on his wish list as well. More than that, though, he wants to be safe and loved and under his own roof. In exchange, he promises adoring gazes and loyal companionship and to give you lots of laughs. 

 

What do you say? Is Gideon the one you want by your side? Do you want to be the one to do the DNA test just to see what he really is?

What My Foster Says About Me:   Gideon has been a real joy to foster. He has loads of personality and loves being a playful goofball. He is very friendly towards dogs and people, and warms up to strangers quickly. Whether it's squeaking toys, going for a walk or jog, gnawing on a bone, or maybe just his favorite game, tug, Gideon is always down for new adventures and experiences. However, he's just as happy cuddling, and loves giving kisses and affection to his family.

Gideon has taken to crate training well and sleeps in it every night with no incidents. He knows that he has to relieve himself outside and aside from the first day of fostering, he has not had any accidents in the house, In addition to his uniquely beautiful coat and deep, soulful brown eyes, he is also extremely intelligent and food motivated. He has already learned sit, stay, lay down, shake, and fetch, and with the right practice and hopefully a few tasty rewards, he would love for you to teach him many more. 


Lucky Dog cannot guarantee any dog is housebroken.  All of our dogs are working on their crate training.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

The adoption process begins when you submit an adoption application either online or at an adoption event. The individual responsible for the dog you are interested in adopting - a position we call the “adoption coordinator” - will then set up a time to discuss your application over the telephone. The adoption coordinator will check your vet reference to make sure all current and past pets were kept up-to-date with their shots and medical care. The adoption coordinator will also set up a home visit with one of our trained volunteers. That individual will come to your home to ensure that it is a safe environment, to confirm that everyone in the home is on board with adopting a dog, and to discuss any other questions you may have about dog adoption!

Go meet their pets

Our adoption events are held each weekend. A schedule of times and locations can be found at www.luckydoganimalrescue.org.
