Gordo is a 4-year-old, 43-pound pittie mix with a playful, goofy personality and plenty of love to share with the people he trusts.
After losing his owner, Gordo found himself in an unfamiliar shelter environment, where all the new faces, sounds, and handling were understandably overwhelming. His former family described him as a friendly, loving companion who enjoys playing, has a moderate energy level, and can be shy around strangers until he gets comfortable.
Gordo has some great foundations from his previous home! He's potty trained, crate trained, familiar with walking on a leash, and knows sit, stay, and lay down.
Gordo will thrive with someone who understands canine body language, respects his boundaries, and gives him the opportunity to build trust at his own pace. A predictable routine, gentle handling, and a secure home environment will help him settle into family life again.
This handsome boy has already experienced a lot of change. He's looking for someone who can offer him the patience, understanding, and stability he deserves
