Rocky Gibson

Intake Date: 1/5/18
Last Update: 2/27/18 Date Available: TBD by coordinator Age: 6 years old DOB: 1/12/12 Gender: Male Weight: 19.4lb - underweight with a goal of putting on another 5+ pounds. I'm starting to love my food again...hooray! Energy Level: Energy level is increasing. Initially lots of time sleeping, but starting to get more curious and wanting to roam - I've even had a running-burst a couple of times. Color & Markings: white/light brown Good with other dogs: No issues - two foster sibs, both female and larger than me. We get along fine, and every so often I like to tussle with one of them. So fun! Good with cats: Unknown Good with kids: Good with people - no problem being pet, picked up, messed with during feeding time. I let people know that I am happy/sad/concerned/curious with a nice, little meow/growl/purr. A crazy sound, but it seems to make everyone laugh! Special Needs: Daily eye meds, monthly heartworm and flea preventative. I seem to have some general allergy issues, so grain-free, beef-based food would be wonderful and frequent cleaning of my facial folds. My foster fam also uses a medicated shampoo for me. Medications: Daily eye meds, heartworm/flea treatment Crate Trained: Totally fine, sometimes I go in the crate just for a little time out on my own. House Trained: No. I do great in the crate, but I don't tell my foster parents when it's time to go out...it's too easy just to run to the other side of the wall and let it go there. I really don't like being outside right now...is it ALWAYS going to be so cold and snowy?? I've actually walked out the door on my own a couple of times, but most often my foster fam picks me up and takes me to my "spot" outside. With a regular schedule to go outside, I have minimal accidents, but if you let me go too long, you may find yourself with a little present... Physical Fence Required: No. I do need to be on leash right now because I really just want to come back inside. Soooo...my foster family tells me I have a funny little gait, but I'm usually just getting to the welcome mat as fast as possible. Of course, I've been with my foster fam while the weather is cold or rainy, so maybe I'll love it once that warm sun I've heard so much about comes out! Are they a runner/escape artist? I like to head butt the baby gates to get where I want to go in the house :) I prefer to stay close to my humans, though.

My Ideal Home:
Gibson is still getting to know us, but he is very sweet and easy to be around. He is becoming more curious and a little more cantankerous (finding things to carry away or bite on), but we take that as a sign that he is feeling better. In terms of friendliness and personality, he's a dream. In terms of house-training and eating habits...well, we're working on it! Big crowds and loud noises aren't really his thing, but he loves a good snuggle and is happy to trot around after people and dogs in the house
Intake info:
I was surrendered to BBR because of the mass on my neck (which has been removed after coming into rescue)
