GIDEON THERAPY DOG

Description

  Meet Gideon – A Little Dog With a Very Big Heart ❤️ Gideon’s story began in a home that simply had too many dogs and not enough care to go around. Along with many other Chihuahuas, he ended up in a small rural Tennessee shelter, frightened and unsure of what the future held. Thankfully, rescue stepped in, and now Gideon is ready to find the stable, loving home he deserves. Gideon is a handsome puggle mix, possibly with a little Feist in him, which gives him a slightly sturdier build and a touch of athleticism. He is about 5 years old and weighs around 14 pounds, making him the perfect compact companion. This sweet boy is looking for a person to love and protect. Gideon forms deep bonds and wants to be someone’s loyal little shadow. His past environment was chaotic, living among more than 15 other Chihuahuas, so what he needs most now is consistency, patience, and a devoted adopter who will give him the stability he’s been missing. Gideon is surprisingly athletic and clever. He’s not a fan of being confined and has been known to scale baby gates with impressive agility! He much prefers being free to explore his home and yard alongside his person. Despite his adventurous side, Gideon is also a snuggle expert. He loves kisses, cuddling close, and soaking up affection. He can be a little bossy with other dogs at times — a habit he likely developed while navigating his former crowded home — but his heart is full of love for his people.  He has recently entered a foster home that has two young boys, 10 and 7 years of age.  He adores them.   When one was sick recently he made sure he laid on the blanket beside this young boy as he tried to recover and heal from the flu.  He is fabulous with meeting new people and is so gentle and willing to sit on anyone's lap quietly that allows him the pleasure.  We cannot say enough good things about this dog and his gentle human encounters  He enjoys spending time outdoors, strolling around the yard, and stretching out in a sunny spot to relax. His size and adaptable nature make him a wonderful fit for apartments, condos, or smaller living spaces. If you’re searching for a loyal companion who will adore you, comfort you, and share life’s special moments, Gideon could be the perfect little best friend you’ve been waiting for.   To learn more or to adopt Gideon, please contactCritter Cavalry Rescue at: ccrtennessee@gmail.com   PLEASE NOTE:  Our dogs are transported from Tennessee to meeting places in the states where we have posted.  Further information about us is given on our Adopt-A-Pet site.  The adoption fees vary and will be provided as well as noted on the application you receive.  Contact us at 615-661-5333 or ccrnewengland@gmail.com
