Greg, a little BMOC (big man on campus 😉)
Greg is a cute low rider, an Italian greyhound/ dachshund mix. He took a proactive approach to getting rescued. Deciding that he was tired of being a stray, he followed a previous GDR adopter & his doggo home from a walk in the park & refused to leave their apartment! 😊
Greg perceives himself to be a big dog. His best buddy in his foster’s home is a Great Pyrenees with whom he wrestles & cuddles up to sleep. (He also plays well with dogs his size.)
He is outgoing, friendly, and very athletic. He is very food oriented & must be separated/crated during meal time to prevent bullying. He does share toys well.
He will exuberantly greet you whether you have been gone for 5 minutes or 3 hours.
Greg is ready for his forever home.

Something to Consider:
Puppies don't train themselves
If you aren’t willing to train a puppy every single day, don’t get a puppy! It isn’t a one-shot deal. You have to be dedicated. And if you aren’t making progress – find someone who can help. Enroll in a puppy training class or hire a trainer. Most cities across the nation have some sort of availability for this kind of help and at different cost levels that would fit your budget.
Puppies are going to poop a lot and pee even more; chew on everything; bite everyone; scratch people and furniture; steal things; destroy something at some point; pull on the leash; not move at all on the leash; bark; cry; beg for attention; and the list goes on. You’re going to have to walk them, bathe them, pick up everything below waist height, buy new shoes, and most importantly: TRAIN THE PUPPY NOT TO DO THESE THINGS! Ultimately, it is your responsibility to teach your puppy that this behavior is unacceptable.
Puppies turn into dogs...
