Goliath, like his name has a big personality, heart and appetite. He is shy around new people and situations but warms up quickly. He loves to cuddle in a lap, give a lot of kisses and have his belly rubbed. He has the puppy dog eyes down perfectly!

Goliath is very active -- He gets so excited when he sees you grab his leash. He loves to go for walks and runs. He also wants to go for car rides and look out the windows. He is super-fast when he runs and has even won at the Buda Weiner Dog Races in the past. He will eat anything he is given and you have to watch his weight. He eats his meals out of a kibble ball to ensure he doesn't eat so fast he makes himself sick. He has a blast with his kibble ball! He can easily maintain his weight with a low calorie or health weight dog food and regular walks. He usually gets carrots or apples for treats. He is potty trained but doesn't like to go potty outside when it is wet. When it is wet, taking him outside on a leash to go potty is the best solution. He uses the doggie door and is crate trained. He prefers to sleep in bed with his family but doesn't complain if he has to sleep in his crate. He is very social and will do best with a dog buddy.

Goliath is bonded with his buddy, Daisy, so he will need to be adopted with her.
