Meet Gomez

Meet Gomez – he is a sweet, affectionate boy whose confidence is growing every day in his foster home. Although he can sometimes find the big wide world a little overwhelming, he is slowly learning to relax, explore and enjoy life at his own pace.

One of Gomez’s favourite things is spending time with his doggy friends! He is a very sociable boy and often takes confidence from being around other dogs. He particularly enjoys going out for walks with his four-legged friends and loves following the other dogs around his foster home.

During the day, Gomez enjoys a lovely balance of relaxing and keeping himself busy. You’ll often find him lounging around and soaking up the sunshine, but he also has an active and playful side! He enjoys a good zoom, snuffling in hi snuffle mat and joining in with whatever the other dogs are up to.

It’s been wonderful to see Gomez’s confidence blossom in foster care. With patience, understanding and the reassurance of friendly dogs around him, he is continuing to discover just how lovely life can be.

Could you be his forever home to show him just how great the world can be?

Support and Health

How much training will I need?

Needs settling in

Can I be left alone?

Yes

Gomez has been able to do 4-5 hours home alone successfully since being on foster with his greyhound companions. We feel Gomez will be able to build this up again in his new home, providing he is left with a doggy friend.

Do I have any medical conditions?

None

Gomez has recently had a teeth descale and polish. Our rehoming team will be able to give you further information if you apply to rehome them and you are a successful match.

We would also advise that any medical conditions, be that historic or ongoing, are discussed with your own vet prior to taking them home.

Who I can live with

Can I live with dogs?

Yes

Can I live with cats?

No

Can I live with small pets?

No

Additional information

Gomez must live with a confident, well socialised dog in his new home. He really gains his confidence when he’s got a doggy friend to show him that the world isn’t so scary.

 

 

 

Family and environment

What kind of family am I looking for?

Gomez can live with children aged 8+.

He is a shy boy initially who will need everyone in the home to understand he needs a little time and patience to warm up at his own pace, but when he does – Gomez is a real sweetheart.

What type of environment would suit me?

Gomez will need a secure, private garden with a 6ft fencing in his new home so that he’s got a safe space to zoom around it and play.
