Gordon's Story

Breed: Terrier mix<br/>Age: 1 yr.<br/>Weight: 16 lbs.<br/>Good with dogs: yes<br/>Good with cats: no<br/>Good with kids: no young children<br/>Energy level: unsure<br/>Good with men/strangers: yes<br/>Hypoallergenic: no<br/><br/>Special home requirements or medical: none<br/><br/>Additional info:<br/><br/>*PLEASE READ ENTIRE BIO - THIS IS A FERAL DOG!*<br/>Meet Gordan! This guy is really, really, really ridiculously good looking and has so much potential! He loves to play and explore and, with good initial introductions, can live comfortably with other dogs. Gordan had a rough start in life and was rescued from a hoarding situation, so he trusts other dogs and is working on trusting people. At the hoarder, he was living in filth with about 100 other dogs in a single home. Since being rescued, he has been decompressing in a loving foster home with other dogs. <br/>Dogs = safety. <br/>However, cats = chase me. So, no cats please! <br/>Gordon already makes a lot of eye contact, responds to verbal correction, and has been good about using puppy pads and going outside in an enclosed yard. However, Gordon does not yet trust people -- he wants to, but it will take time and patience before he will let you get close. Gordon sleeps quietly through the night in his crate or pen and loves food, but he needs a human with experience with dogs who have not had much contact with people and would do best in a home without young children as he will startle easily. <br/><br/>If you are not ready to adopt just yet and would like to help in other ways, please consider clicking on the green “Sponsor Me” button above to help this dog receive the best care we can give. We rely on the generosity of others to make rescuing dogs possible.<br/><br/>IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN ADOPTING THIS DOG, PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE READ THE DOG'S INFORMATION CAREFULLY. ONCE YOU HAVE DONE SO, PLEASE DO THE FOLLOWING:<br/>1. Visit www.dogswithoutborders.org<br/>2.
