Hi everyone…my name is Optimus and I’m a 10-year-old boy. When I first met the good people at GR, I was pretty scruffy, dirty, and knew very few commands. It didn’t take me long, with the help of my amazing foster family, to get groomed and they even sent me to a trainer so I could learn all your human stuff. I did pretty well, I’m told. After all, my name Optimus, according to Google, means “good, great, favourable, best, pleasant, valuable”. Wow, my human language isn’t great but I’m pretty sure they’re all amazing words and aren’t you impressed that I looked it up on Google? I do try to please and I am one grateful boy for all the attention and love I am now getting. I am not a big barker. You can certainly touch me anywhere and I love, love, love it! I don’t like loud noises but I don’t freak either. You can leave me alone if you have to go out without me. I am gentle with my treats and other than a bit of arthritis, the doc says I’m healthy. I have pretty good energy for a boy my age and I’m told I’m pretty smart. I love people and other dogs and I am a calm, gentle soul who doesn’t get fussed about stuff. I simply enjoy chilling and watching the world go by. I sure would love to chill with you.
