My story

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

**Meet Gamora – A Resilient 4-Year-Old Pitbull Seeking Her Forever Home**

Gamora is a four-year-old Pitbull who was brought in as a stray on February 16, 2024. She has endured significant hardships, evident from her many scars and missing fur. Gamora has bravely fought through pyometra, kennel cough, pneumonia, and ear infections. She truly deserves to find her forever home.

Gamora is very shy and nervous, particularly about things going over her head, and she requires a patient and understanding home. While it takes her some time to warm up, she is incredibly sweet once she does. She would do best with another dog of her size and is highly treat-motivated. Additionally, she is potty trained but not suitable for homes with cats or small children. Currently, Gamora is in foster care.

**Updates from Her Foster Family:**

*May 16, 2024:*
`She`s been good! Definitely warming up, giving lots of kisses. She`s been catching up on some much-needed deep sleep. No accidents in the house either!`

*June 3, 2024:*
`In a home setting, she is WAY more confident! She really comes out of her shell and once she’s comfortable, she pretty much turns into a normal dog. She also does well in the car and has learned to shake!`

*June 6, 2024:*
`Gamora is still looking for her forever people. She can be shy and nervous at first, but it doesn’t take her long to warm up and become the goofy girl that she is! She knows sit and shake, loves car rides and walks, and enjoys a good squeaky toy. She is laid-back but also loves a bit of fun. Gamora is 100% potty trained and treat-motivated.`

If you`re looking for a loyal and resilient companion, Gamora could be the perfect addition to your family.
