GUINNESS

My story

Are you perfect? No? Neither is Guinness! You guys have so much in common already. Guinness is an active and smart little guy who love, love, LOVES his toys. He's a pro at fetch and will "sit" on command if you reward him with another throw. He enjoys attention and pets from those he knows and trusts. It takes awhile for Guinness to get to know new people. He can be nervous in new situations and would do best in an adult-only home without a lot of commotion or visitors. Are you the kind of person that enjoys a routine? So is Guinness! A structured lifestyle is Guinness' dream. Guinness has some behavioral issues that will be best handled with an experienced dog family. Let's just get it all out there- Guinness has been known to bite and we aren't always sure of his triggers. We have discovered that food/treats can definitely be a trigger. He gets hyper-focused on the snack bag, and if you try to cut him off before he's had his fill... well, he may make a snack out of your fingers instead. Guinness does tolerate other calm and polite dogs, so long as they don't try to steal his toys; we get it, we don't like to share either! Guinness also does not appreciate when another dog gets all up in his biz by sniffing too invasively, or trying to get him to play. He could potentially do well in a home with another dog, provided that dog recognizes when to let Guinness have his alone time, and YOU are dedicated to close supervision during interactions between animals. Besides toys, Guinness also enjoys walks around the neighborhood, and walks great on leash. He is an energetic guy and would love to be active with you! So is he perfect? Nope. But do we love him anyway? Yep! Guinness is looking for someone to love him just the way he is, flaws and all. Now that's something we can ALL relate to, right?
