Georgio is a clever, playful and curious 3 year old Schipperke/Pomeranian mix.
He loves anything that squeaks and can figure out puzzle games quickly! Georgio is also an exceptional listener, especially when it comes to boundary commands such as 'off' and 'no' - including obeying rooms that are off-limits even when the door is left open.
He will obey your rules and back off without complaint.
This little guy is also a cuddle bug who loves human warmth.
If he could have it his way, he would be cuddled and sandwiched between his humans at all times.
In his day to day life, Georgio loves his crate and will go in when asked without fuss.
On walks, without too much people/dog distractions, he is great as he heels and does not pull.
He is up to date on all his vaccines, neutered and he is a little overweight at about 24 pounds.
Georgio can be protective of his human mom, especially if he's nervous, and that puts him on alert.
He is far more relaxed with men and confident women.
He has separation anxiety and a bite on his record, "protecting" his former owner from a jogger.
He is not confident with other dogs and maybe cats.
He will need formal training to work on his anxieties.
He needs a forever home that can remind him he's safe and he can relax.
He is really quite a delightful dog.
Very sweet and loving to his family.
Georgio needs to be brushed regularly as he has a long coat; he loves being brushed and will nod off to sleep during the process.
He also waits patiently during bath time, with or without a treat.
Your attention and love is all he wants! If you'd like to meet this handsome guys please fill out a Statement of Interest on our website!
