Poor Gavin had an application for adoption but was rejected by the applicant because he has a sore leg sometimes. We think it is probably due to an old injury that acts up sometimes....he also has a canine tooth that is broken off...so he had a hard life prior to coming into Ratbone Rescues. The applicant wanted to compete in agility so it's understandable she wouldn't want a dog with a sore leg but poor Gavin still needs a good forever home!
He's super sweet, cute, loves to play with dogs or with his humans. Very obedient....when he's in the yard I just call him and he runs to me and sits on command, waiting for his leash to be put on. And after 6 weeks I still have not heard this dog growl! Not even if another dog takes his food from him! He would fit into almost any family, loves children, other dogs and ignores cats. He's the perfect buddy for someone out there!
His leg is not a big deal (unless you want to do agility!). Just every so often he's "off" on it...it's not like he's really limping or on 3 legs or anything. He still loves to run and play (as you can see in the videos I recently posted!). |
