Labrador Retriever - Gilbert - Medium - Adult - Male - Dog
Gilbert is an incredibly loving and loyal older dog. He is estimated to be around 9 years old.He is a sweetheart, but needs to be placed in a home that can address some of his issues.
Due to circumstances of his prior life with his first owner and life in the shelters, he is not comfortable around other unknown dogs and can be protective/somewhat aggressive towards dogs that he finds threatening (we have noticed this is usually larger breeds that are somewhat aggressive as well). He is definitely an alpha dog and is best-suited for an only dog home.
Gilbert has extreme arthritis in his back left hip which we regulate with Tramadol and exercise (Previcox and Rimadyl tend to make him nauseous). He is mostly an indoor dog with us and sleeps in the house. He is completely housebroken and has never once had an accident the entire time that we have had him.
Our son recently turned one year old. Until our son began to get a bit curious and a little rough and tumble, Gilbert was incredibly tolerant and would simply move when our son approached him. They were good friends. Gilbert was extremely loyal and loving throughout my wife's entire pregnancy and sweet to our son as a newborn.
We feel that the best home for him would be a no kids/no other pets home with a slow-paced life. He loves to be patted and be close to his owner. He would be a wonderful companion for someone that is looking for a sweet and loyal older dog.
Gilbert is a GAO referral dog. If you are interested in adopting him, please contact [email removed] .
