About Gio

Hi, I'm Gio! I'm an 8-year-old Maltipoo boy, 10.6 pounds of sweetness, and I have become a total Lover Boy! I came back to rescue because my person could no longer afford my care and I can't wait to find my new family. I have impaired vision, but I learned to navigate my previous home using my hearing and my nose, and with a patient family, I'm sure I can do the same in my new home. I'm a confident little boy. I'm great with dogs, cats, and kids, and I love my people right back. I'm housebroken and will let you know when I need to go outside by heading toward the door or making a little noise to get your attention. I know several commands, including 'go potty' and 'go to bed.' I might need a potty refresher in my new home as I learn to navigate a new floor plan�'�|speaking of a home without many steps would be ideal. I'm not much of a traditional leash walker since I cannot see my surroundings but when my person places me down, I can usually follow along. I'm also a good car rider! I just need a little time to settle in before I'm ready to relax in my bed. When I was first adopted, I was shy and wasn't comfortable being held or cuddled. But somewhere along the way I discovered how wonderful being loved can be. Now I love being close to my people, cuddling on the couch, and giving kisses. I may bark when someone is outside or when my person leaves, but once I know everything is okay, I settle right down. At bedtime, I sleep in my own bed near my person's bed. Recently, I've started asking to join my human on the big bed, too! I put my front paws up on the side when I want to be lifted up. Once I'm there, I'm very careful moving around, but because I can't judge depth and then I need help getting back down. I can also hop onto the couch, but I need help getting down.���� I'm a sweet, affectionate little guy who has learned that being close to my people is my favorite thing. I don't need to see you to know that I'm loved - I can hear you, smell you, and feel right at home beside you. I'm looking for a patient forever person who will appreciate my sweet nature, keep me safe, and let me be the devoted little companion I was meant to be. Could you be my forever home?
