Meet Gizmo š¾
š¶ Personality:
Gizmo is a fun-loving, high-energy boy who is very much a big puppy still learning about the world. Heās playful, affectionate and full of enthusiasm, especially when it comes to games of fetch and soaking up belly rubs. Gizmo enjoys the company of other dogs and is keen to make friends, though he can sometimes be a bit full-on and may need reminders from other dogs about polite play. He has been around children and does better with older kids, as he can get excited and a little rough with very young ones. Gizmo has shown interest in chickens through the fence but hasnāt attempted to chase or harm them.
š Training:
Gizmo is at the beginning of his training journey and is making steady progress. He is learning to sit and is working on waiting calmly for his food. He is also working on reducing night time barking, which improves when he has another dog nearby. Gizmo is still learning not to jump up and will need continued guidance and consistency in this area. He is eager to learn and, with the right structure, will continue to develop into a well-mannered companion.
š Perfect Home:
Gizmo would thrive in an active, experienced home, ideally with someone familiar with working breeds, who can provide plenty of daily exercise, mental stimulation and ongoing training. He would benefit from continued socialisation and clear boundaries to help him channel his energy in positive ways. A home with older children or adults would suit him best. With time, patience and the right guidance, Gizmo will grow into a loyal, fun and engaging companion.
Love & licks!
