Here's what the humans have to say about me:
Meet Gilroy! This playful pup is ready to leap his way into your life and heart! Gilroy's all about love and fun, and he's got a sweet habit of dragging his pillow and blanket to his bed for a cozy night in. The best part? He loves being tucked in! If he wiggles out of his covers, he'll nudge you for a second tuck-in, giving you the cutest bedtime routine ever. Gilroy may be a big dog, but he's a gentle giant at heart. He's happiest when he's outside running and jumping, especially if there are bubbles to chase! He'll show off his high jumps, adding an extra dash of joy to every play session. This clever boy knows basic commands like sit, lay down, and stay, and he's both crate-trained and house-trained. Gilroy is a pro on walks, though he has lots of energy and would love to keep building his skills with you! He's also very treat-motivated, making it easy to reinforce his training and keep him engaged. Gilroy's ideal family would be active and ready for outdoor adventures, where he can share in fun-filled days of running, hiking, and exploring. Ready to meet your new best friend? Gilroy would make a loyal, playful companion. Come meet him today!
