My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Up for pre-adoption!

Meet Gidget, the Adorable and Energetic Canine Companion!

Name: Gidget (Nickname: Lil' Girl)
Breed: Anatolian Shepherd mix
Age: 4.5 months old
Size: 25 pounds

Special Features: Gidget's distinctive characteristics include her charming fox-like muzzle, plush fur, and an expressive tail.

About Gidget:
Gidget is an absolute delight, ready to share her energy, intelligence, and affection with a loving forever family. She's a bundle of joy and an intelligent pup who thrives on human interaction and praise.

Personality:
Gidget's exuberant and cheerful nature will instantly lift your spirits. She's highly driven by human interaction and praise, making her a fantastic companion for those who love to engage with their four-legged friends. Her playful and inquisitive spirit keeps her on the go.

Training Progress:
Gidget is a smart pup who is currently working on house training and crate training. As of 10/13/2023, she hasn't had any accidents for six days, showing her potential for learning and adapting. She responds well to positive reinforcement and treats.

Good with Children and Other Animals:
Gidget has been around a 16-year-old and is learning not to jump. She's also good with other animals, including dogs, cats, and her 30-pound brother. Her curious and friendly nature helps her get along with various animal companions.

Favorite Activities:
Gidget's favorite activities include playing with her beloved Outward Hound Ringamals Blue Panda toy and engaging with other plush toys. She's an active and energetic pup who loves to run around and play. She's equally fond of cuddling and enjoying some quality human time.

Ideal Home:
The ideal home for Gidget would be one where she can get plenty of interaction, playtime, and mental stimulation. She's intelligent and driven to please, making her a potential candidate for a service dog role. Active families who appreciate her exuberance will find the perfect match in Gidget.

Leash Manners:
While Gidget does well on a leash, she may need a martingale collar to prevent slipping out when she gets distracted by something intriguing. Her good behavior on a leash makes outdoor walks enjoyable.

Travel Compatibility:
Gidget enjoys car rides and should do well on a 2-3 day transport van ride to her new home. As long as she gets regular walks, playtime, and human interaction during stops, she'll adapt to new environments without anxiety.

Special Notes:
Gidget may experience digestive upset from dewormer, but 100% pumpkin puree over 24-36 hours can help regulate her bowels effectively.

Adoption Information:
If you're ready to welcome Gidget into your loving forever home and provide her with the attention and stimulation she craves, please apply. Gidget is waiting to be the center of your world and make your days brighter.

Don't miss the chance to add this charming, energetic, and highly trainable pup to your family!
