About Garth (Fisher)

🐾 Introducing GARTH- a big ball of goofiness! He is nearly 4 years old and is loving, wild, sweet, stubborn, hilarious, and awesome! Garth will need to be neutered.

🐾Garth is the silliest, loving, wild, free spirited boy around with a splash of stubbornness. Garth has known nothing but love his whole life. He will need lots of treats and car rides and swimming sessions. He will expect to cuddle you in bed or on the couch and when he’s not out camping, hiking or watching his humans.

🐾Garth needs toys or beef bones to keep him occupied. Garth is good with other dogs but has a ton of energy. He will likely settle once he is neutered, and we are working on getting that scheduled. He may do best as an only dog with a very attentive and active family. Or a larger dog similar in energy level.

🐾He knows sit, walk on a leash, “load up” in the car, “outside go potty”, go get a treat, find your toy and is crate trained.

🐾Garth has been raised with kids, aged 6-19. He’s been raised with three other dogs and does well with small dogs-teacup yorkies up to high energy labs and wire haired pointers, but can be dominant. He hasn’t been raised with cats, however, given how gentle he is with their teacup Yorkie, would likely do fine.

🐾 Preference given to Boise area applicants.

Special Needs
