My story

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

This spunky girls name is Gabby! Gabby was found running as a stray who took almost two weeks to catch. She was skin and bones when she was finally caught and spent some time with an animal lover who held onto her until we had space for her. We believe she is around a year and a half old Hound and Pittie mix. This girl loves to run! She gets the typical zoomies and we actually have to keep a leash on her in the yard as she likes to play keep away. She is timid with new people but does warm up to them with time. We believe it would be difficult to find a dog she would get along with as she has a pushy personality when it comes to greeting other dogs. She certainly has a prey drive so no cats in the home would be best. We believe she would be ok with children over ten in the right environment. She is a typical energetic young dog that just needs some basic training and socialization and has the potential to make a wonderful family member!

Additional adoption info

When you see an animal in our kennel or cattery that you are interested in, we will ask that you complete some paperwork (our "Adoption Application"). This paperwork must be completed first in order to minimize stress for you and the animals. Our process includes asking questions: asking for veterinary references-particularly when you have other animals at home. This is simply to protect the health of adoption candidates and the pets you already have.

You will have a counseling session with one of our knowledgeable staff members who will fill you in on the history and needs of that animal, and his feeding and exercise requirements. You can ask your counselor any questions about spaying or neutering, housetraining, obedience training, scratching (in cats), veterinary care, how to deal with fleas and ticks, and anything else you can think of.

If you are approved to adopt, you will be asked to sign an adoption contract and pay an adoption fee. This fee covers spaying or neutering, and the veterinary care, deworming and vaccines your pet has received at the shelter.

You can find the Adopter's Profile on our website.
