Here’s Goose!

Goose is a 6 month old, 30 lb, Golden retriever/Border collie mix.  He is full of energy, cute as a button, and has a very sweet personality.  He is neutered and up to date on his shots.

He was surrendered due to SO long hours of work and she felt Goose would be better off with a family not putting in so many hours away from home.

Here is what I’ve learned about Goose since he has been in my home:

He is a busy puppy.

You need to remove all things you don’t want chewed.

He loves bones, empty soda bottles, and the Kong with peanut butter.

He also loves toilet paper on the roll, shoes, squirrels, and socks.

He has a white blaze on his chest and front paws, knows how to sit, shake, and come (kind of).  He loves to play ball and tug of war.  He was amazed by the airplanes flying over my house (I live in So. Minneapolis). 

He loves car rides, people, and other dogs that will play with him, and is cat friendly (he lived with 2 cats).  He is not much of a barker. 

I think he is too puppyish for small children, but was fine with my 10 year old nephews.

I confine him in the kitchen during the work day and at night.  He does well. 

I’m working on his manners.  With his SO he has been to doggie day care, dog parks and beginning obedience training.

I think Goose will be a wonderful addition to a family who wants to exercise, take him places and spend time with him.
