About Gideon (67618)
Meet Gideon 🐾
Gideon is a 5.5-month-old Rhodesian Ridgeback x Staffy puppy who currently weighs 13kg and still has plenty of growing to do. He came into GAWS as a stray, so we don't have any background history, but what we do know is that Gideon is a friendly, social boy with a zest for life.
As a young pup, Gideon may need some guidance adjusting to inside-outside living and learning the routines of a home environment. He is high energy and would benefit from consistent boundaries, ongoing obedience training, and plenty of appropriate physical and mental enrichment to help him grow into a well-mannered adult.
Gideon has shown he enjoys the company of other dogs and would thrive with a well-balanced adult dog to help show him the ropes. His enthusiasm can sometimes come with happy zoomies, so while he could do well in a home with children, we recommend dog-savvy kids who understand respectful interactions.
Gideon has not yet been tested with cats, however this may be explored further for the right home.
If you're looking for an active, affectionate young dog to add to your pack and are ready to invest time in training and guidance, Gideon could be the perfect match.
