Gumbo's Story

Meet Gumbo – A Little Love Bug with a Big Heart! <br/><br/>Gumbo is a 6-year-old Maltese/Poodle mix who is discovering just how wonderful life can be when you're surrounded by love! Gumbo is a sweet, affectionate little guy who absolutely adores his people. If there's an opportunity to be held, cuddled, or showered with attention, Gumbo is first in line! He's the more outgoing of two brothers and has quickly formed a special bond with his foster mom. He's a little love bug who wants nothing more than to be close to someone who loves him. But with good food, gentle care, and plenty of affection, Gumbo is beginning to blossom!<br/><br/>He's making encouraging progress with potty training and has already learned how to use the doggy door! Gumbo is discovering the joy of spending time outside, and one of his foster mom's favorite things is watching him run around the backyard doing happy little zoomies! Toys are still a mystery to him, but he's learning to enjoy treats, explore his surroundings, and soak up all the attention he can get.<br/><br/>Gumbo isn't crate trained yet, and leash training will be another new adventure. He can also be quite vocal, whether he's alerting everyone to squirrels in the yard or letting his foster mom know he'd like some attention. Because he's become so attached to her, he sometimes whines when she leaves, although he does settle down after a while. His future family will need to be patient as he learns to feel secure and comfortable spending time on his own.<br/><br/>Gumbo may be a good fit for a family with gentle, respectful children, although his interactions with children and cats haven't yet been evaluated. A home where someone has plenty of time for affection, consistency, and positive reinforcement would be wonderful for him.<br/><br/>Gumbo doesn't need a perfect home. He needs a loving one where he can continue learning, growing, and discovering all the wonderful things he's been missing. In return, you'll have a devoted little companion with a whole lot of love to give! Could Gumbo be your new favorite cuddle buddy?
