Meet GORDIE! Five-and-a-half years old, and this scruff is searching for furever. Interested? He’s a smarty-pants and really shines when his people create structure for him throughout the day. With a medium energy level, he needs a good amount of exercise daily, and his love for adventure is sure to keep you busy!

Throughout any given day, GORDIE can often be found getting some physical activity in. He’s a BIG fan of his walks and also loves a good trail hike. Training and working are fun for him, and, after all that activity, he’s down for a crate nap. Oh, and don’t forget time to gnaw on a chew toy, play scent games and chase a ball! He’s big on those, too. All in all, if you’re home more often than not and more on the active side, well, you might just be the one(s) for him!

This scruff is likely to do best living in a detached home (e.g., one that doesn’t share walls with a neighbour). Why is this? He’s still learning and tends to be vocal when he hears an unfamiliar sound. Something he has nailed is crating. Making use of his crate is no biggie for GORDIE, and while he prefers hanging out with his people, he’s fine to use his crate when needed.

Great with other dogs, you’ll find that GORDIE is neutral at first and then becomes more playful and curious. We do think that sharing his space and living with another balanced and playful dog in the home would be fun for him. GORDIE currently lives with a cat and shows both interest and nervousness; he will ignore any cats in the home. Quickly learning to overcome his nerves, we think he could learn to live with a cat (and even enjoy this!) in a new home.
