Hi, I'm Gilligan,

I was removed from a bad situation and brought here. All of this new world is a little overwhelming to me. I am a super sweet two year old. I am a little unsure when meeting new people. Just give me a minute to check everything out and I will feel better about meeting you. I do still tend to jump on folks, thus my restriction on children.

When I first got here, I was an under socialized and fearful dog. I enjoy play at times, but primarily just coexisting with another dog. When I am feeling playful, I am a medium energy player who enjoys chase style play, and occasionally wrestling and body bumping. My signature move includes throwing myself to the ground and rolling, it looks painful but I enjoy it! I would prefer a dog who plays with toys with me and can share the same toy. I can be selective with my dog friends. I appear to prefer females or dogs who are smaller than me. Once I decide I like a dog, I am their friend for life!

One of my favorite things to do once I get to know you, is cuddling! I would love to hang out on a couch watching your favorite shows. I really want nothing more than to hang out by your side and play.

I love people and love to go for walks. I am easy to leash. We could go exploring together, then come back and relax. I would love to get to know you better. Will you stop by and say hi?

Love, Gilligan
