Gibby

HI! I’m Gibby! My brothers and I came to APB from Kentucky where we were found on a roadside as little babies. My brothers got adopted but I’m still waiting for the RIGHT family to come along.
No one knows who my parents are because all 3 of us look so different we had to do DNA. Mom says I’m a Big Ole Mutt. But she says I’m super cute and so soft, with great ears.
I’m a great puppy! I’m happy and social and love to play and really love to snuggle!

I am a good boy in my crate, but I sure do like to see the other doggies. I like to have friends! When mom gets into the cookie jar, I RUN to my crate and am quiet and comfy in it.
At night my crate is in moms bedroom so she can hear me if I have to do a midnight potty (which doesn’t happen all the time, but if I forget and drink too much water before bed, I might need to go)
In the daytime I’m in a crate in the living room with one of my foster siblings in view, so I can see them and see outside too. I love my crate full of toys and blankies so I’m comfy and can keep busy if I don’t nap.

I would really like to have a doggy sibling, or someone who wants to be my BFF and have a shadow. I’ve never been alone so I’d like to keep it that way! I do love kids too! Just not little ones because mom says I’m “rude”. Whatever that means!
I let other dogs take my toys and I like to take theirs too, and play tug, but I refuse to even let anyone think I’m sharing my food out of my own dish. That’s mine, and I am not afraid to tell them so. I didn’t have a lot of food as a baby dog and I remember that feeling in my empty tummy, so it’s all mine! Foster mom says not to growl at other dogs, and I try not to, but I eat slower than everyone else and they watch me and I know they want to take my food, I just know it! I do like it when mom stays close to help me keep an eye out. Id share with her, if she wanted!

I like going bye-bye and I walk good on a leash, but I am going to keep getting bigger and bigger so mom says I need to not pull! She says I need obedience classes. Those would be fun! I want to be a good dog! I am a good dog, and she says I’m super smart and such a fast learner! Even if she makes a “nah” noise, I know that means no.

I am even allowed in the horse barn to help with chores, but never in the horse pasture. Mom says not to cross that gate, so I don’t.
They also have birds here, chickens and ducks and even baby ones. Mom says I am such a good boy because I don’t chase them. I don’t want to harm them and I sure don’t want to make the momma duck mad. She’s scary! I just steer clear of them. Maybe if a duck wants to play I’ll chase him for a second, but never to hurt him…just to play tag! We have deer here too, mom says I can’t bark at them or chase them either, so I don’t. She says “no, come” and I go back to her. I don’t want to be naughty I like to be a good boy!

I like going to fun stores and meeting new people! I haven’t found any dogs at those stores who want to let me climb on them, but I like to at least say HI.
I want all of the people to say HI and pet me and give me cookies! It’s SO fun! If I get really excited I do tinkle, but mom says I’ll grow out of that…eventually. No one likes to get sprayed! I can’t help it, people are SO exciting!!

I like to help mom play in the garden, she digs holes, and I dig better holes! Then I run and run and run some more. Water is fun too, I love getting muddy! I love playing in the water! Ponds, lakes, puddles, even the water dish can be fun!

My foster mom says I need to find my own family, but it’s fun here – will you do fun things with me too, for the rest of my life? That sure would be nice!
