My story

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

Gigi was found on the streets when she was a baby, around 6 weeks old. It seemed like someone has dropped her off in front of a house, she had curled up on a tiny ball and was scared and not moving. Fortunately one of DRWB volunteers saw her and she was picked up.

Since her rescue she went to the Vet for check up, later for spaying, and vaccinations, etc. She has been living with a foster mom that has other dogs.

Estimated date of birth is April of 2024, and at 4 months old she is already 15 pounds, therefore she will grow to be medium size.

Gigi is healthy, gets along with dogs and cats, she is very smart and brave, she is not afraid of the older dogs. She is very food driven, therefore very trainable.

She is learning to go potty outdoors and is not a huge fan of crates, she can be in it for only a couple of hours.

She is very agile and talks back when her foster mom corrects her, she is so funny.

This girl is active and requires an active family. Another active dog in the house would be a huge plus!!!

Gigi is a great doggy and deserves a loving forever home.

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Step 1
Fill application at our website

Step 2
Submit your adoption application to us. It may take a few days before your application is processed and you receive a response back.

Step 3
If your application is approved, we will call you to schedule a "Meet & Greet".

If we have an upcoming adoption event.

We will set a time for you to come meet the dog that day, usually on Saturdays. Please make sure you take any family members and other dogs to see how the initial introduction goes.

If we DON’T have an upcoming adoption event.

And you have other dogs:
We will schedule to meet you, any family members, and other dogs near your home first; this makes the entry into the new home easier for the dog and for your family.

And you don’t have any other dogs:
We will schedule to meet you and any family members at your home.

Step 4
Meet your prospective new pet. Spend time with them and see how it goes.

Step 5
If your "Meet & Greet" goes well and you wish to adopt; you will complete an adoption contract at the appointment. We ask for a suggested adoption donation to help us cover spay/neutering, shots, medical treatment, food, supplies and temporary care. These suggested donation amounts only partially cover the cost of expenses involved. Your donation is tax deductible. It’s that easy!

Step 6
Take your new best friend home! Congratulations – you have saved a special life.

What if the adoption doesn't work out?
You can return any of our dogs as we don't want to see them turned into a shelter. The application process helps prevent such an issue, so it's very important that you are honest when answering the questions.

Not all dogs are compatible in all situations, so it is imperative that you are forthright in the application process to find the right match. However, be sure you are ready to make a full commitment to adopting a dog, whether a puppy or an adult.

It can take up to a few weeks for a dog to really adjust to his/her new environment. A lot really depends on the dog's past so the prospect of adopting should be well-thought-out & the commitment should be taken seriously.

Go meet their pets

Our pets are all cared for in foster homes. While in foster care, their foster family is making sure they receive lots of tender loving care and have any veterinary needs taken care of. This also gives the foster family an opportunity to learn about the dog's personality, so we can better assist you in selecting a dog that will be the best fit for you and your family.
