My personality

My story

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

*CURRENTLY IN A FOSTER HOME. PLEASE CALL 815-858-2265 TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT TO MEET GIGI/ AKA: ODETTE.* I've been having a great time in my foster home. I'm like a new girl, so I needed a new name! I never responded to Odette, but I will respond to Gigi. My foster parents call me that because I'm such a Good Girl! I transferred from the Villalobos Rescue Center in Louisiana, what a long ride! Now that I'm here at Safe Haven I'm ready for my furrever home. I get along with all the dogs I transferred here with including my best doggie friend Piper. We played together really well and gave each other confidence before I went into foster. I'd probably be good in a home with another mellow dog, I don't care for hyper big dogs. I can be a little nervous when it comes to strangers and tend to bark at them, or avoid looking at them all together. So meeting the people who want to take me home is a challenge, but I can adapt. Once I got settled at the shelter I liked playing outside and geting lovin's from the staff and volunteers. I am 4 years old and 28 pounds, being fostered by a very loving family right now. I was so scared at the shelter I would hide from anyone who wanted to meet me, they're helping me to accept new people and situations. In fact they have a really big dog and we get along fine since he is so laid back and friendly! But I am not good with small children, I get really nervous, their sudden movements scare me, I run away and hide when they're around. I would probably be better in a house with older kids, I need time to adjust and accept all the changes. If you think I am right for your home please submit an application today! If you are interested in adopting this adorable 4 year old canine weighing 20 pounds, please FILL OUT AN ADOPTION APPLICATION on our website www.safehavenforpets.org. If you have any questions, please feel free to call us at 815-858-2265 or email us atsafehaven1471@gmail.com.
