ADOPTED 09-17-11 – Gilly is a male, 75 pound chunk of chocolate lab definition, wonderfully goofy, intelligent in a weird sort of way and a comedian by genetic confusion. This dog has taken ball, tree limbs and small car retrieving to a level previously thought to be un- attainable. At best Gilly is a dichotomy of terms great on a leash, fabulous with kids, wonderful with other dogs, ignores cats, all this right up to the point he decides it is more fun to do otherwise. This guy will embrace all aspects of enriching your life, whether it is surprising you with his new greatest treasure of road kill possum or dropping in for dinner with his new best friend (the Great Dane) from down the lane. Gilly is a true masterpiece of comedy enterprises while trying all the while to be completely serious, a task he is yet to achieve.

 NEUTERED * FULLY VETTED   * GREAT ON A LEASH    * GREAT WITH CHILDREN
* GREAT WITH OTHER DOGS   * HOUSE BROKEN   * BASIC COMMANDS

Having picked on Gilly enough I will tell you that he really is a wonderful dog, very easy to be around, a true love sponge with an impish side. I have worked with this boy over the previous few weeks and have found him to be easy to control, easy to train and very predictable. Gilly has plenty of spirit and will exercise as long as you are willing to go but he really will settle down and does very well inside the home. You will never have to worry about this guy with the kids, they are what he lives for but use common sense he may carry one off on his back. Gilly could best be described as a gentle giant with a slightly warped sense of humor. If you are looking for a new family member that will enhance your home with laughter, goodwill and love then Gilly is who you should be perusing at this time.

PLEASE TAKE A MINUTE TO CHECK OUT THE SECTION BELOW

RDVG wants to provide you with as much information as we can because some of our mix breeds you might not be familiar with. The below section on “About the Breed” offers information on some of the Breed Characteristics, Children & Pets, Behavior and Personality, Temperament and more.

It is important to point out that in addition to the breed, there is an enormous variety in the way a dog acts and reacts to the world around him. In the end, your dog’s preferences and personality are as individual as you are–and if you can accept that– then you’re bound to enjoy each other.

Children & Pets

Animal Behavior Guidelines

Many children, especially very young ones, do not realize that pets are living animals and not toys. Failing to teach a child how to handle pets properly can result in suffering on the part of the pet and, in some cases, injury to the child. Taking introductions slowly will allow you to introduce family dogs and your children safely

Puppy Behavior, Growth & Development

Each stage of Puppy Growth and development is fascinating; by the time it reaches its first birthday a puppy is considered a mature, adult dog. Puppy Growth rate is fast compared to humans, just compare a puppy of 8 weeks to a baby of the same age.

One of the most common questions asked about a puppy’s growth and development rate refers to the eventual size of the puppy. How big will the puppy grow? How can you determine the adult size of a puppy? A young puppy is tiny and cute – everyone loves puppies! But will the puppy be suited to your environment? How much exercise will be required for a full grown dog? Will the puppy be a suitable pet for children? The breed of the puppy will determine the answers to these questions. A general response to the size and growth rate of a puppy and the adult size of a puppy is therefore not possible – it needs to be specific to the puppy’s breed.
