I am a mellow and laid back guy who just LOVES to be with people. I had a rough life before coming to As Good as Gold and it showed. I didn’t have much hair and my skin was in bad shape. With good food and some thyroid pills I am feeling pretty good.
I have a great sense of humor. I love to rub my head on people affectionately, shovel my head under the covers, bump open doors or bump your elbow until you give me attention. I love being touched, especially anywhere on my face. A good massage is always nice. I love to be in the same room with you, preferably in the traffic path or on your feet so I can be sure not to miss anything.
I love to go for walks, or as foster mom calls them, “meanders”. I don’t go too fast and love to check out all of the smells. I never pull on leash, so I am a very good boy. Going on short nature trails or to the park are my favorite, or even just taking a seat somewhere and watch the people go by. Riding in the car is also another favorite of mine.
There is nothing that I love more than to simply be with people I am very content to just be with you while you read or watch TV. I am a great companion and will be a great foot warmer with these cold winter months upon us.
UPDATE: Well, I am having a tougher time moving around, so I get to stay at my foster home. I am soaking up all of the love and attention I deserve. If you can help out me and other dogs like me, please click here to make a donation.
