George

Hello! My name is George (my friends call me Georgie)! I have had a bit of a rough go, but I am still the most loving guy - it takes a lot to beat me down. I have an adventurous spirit and a heart of gold. I would love a big backyard to run around in and a cozy space to cuddle in when I'm ready to chill. I haven't had the chance to try many of these Rocky Mountain sports yet, but I imagine hiking up some peaks would be right up my alley! The staff are impressed with my leash skills (switching to a harness really helped) and they all agree I am a gentle guy who just needs somewhere safe to call my own. I can be nervous around certain people upon first meeting (particularly in my room), but if they respect my space until I feel safe we will become buddies in no time. The more I settle in here, the more open I am to making lots of new friends! Crates are a trigger for me, so a I would prefer we work on a different option, like my own room as a "safe space" or some training for if there are times I may need my own space to decompress. I have lived with kids, and I think another dog could be a possibility! I am excited to get a fresh start and find a home where I can finally be part of the family - I swear I won't disappoint!
