My story

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

Donovan is a true survivor with a heart of gold



After being found with severe chemical burn wounds, this resilient pup has healed beautifully and is now ready to find a family to love. At 1 year old and @ 45 lbs, Donovan is fully vetted, heartworm negative, and full of love for everyone he meets – humans and dogs alike!



“Donovan is a doll. He is very happy and loves being part of a family. He has an overall calm and trusting nature.”



Donovan thrives in a home with kids (he’s fantastic with the 5 children in his foster home, ages 6-16), and he’s incredibly gentle and patient with them. Whether it’s playtime or cuddle time, Donovan is all in! He’s great with dogs of all sizes, and he would truly love to have a furry playmate in his forever home. 



Housebroken, crate trained, and a champ on the leash, Donovan is an easy-going companion who enjoys medium energy activities, but is just as happy to relax at your feet in the evening. His food motivation and eagerness to learn,  make him a quick study for any new skills!



Donovan is truly the perfect family dog, ready to bring joy, love, and companionship to his forever home. Could that be with you?

XO, THE GBP TEAM



PS - Please keep in mind, our bio's are based on feedback we have received from the current foster home the dog is in. We can never guarantee how a transition will affect the dog. GBP is here to help make the transition as easy as possible but time + patience are also important when adopting a new PAL. Breed Mixes & Ages are a best guess and can not be guaranteed**

More about this rescue

The Gals Best Pal Rescue Mission is to be a voice for the voiceless as it advocates for the dogs in its care while finding them safe, suitable, caring homes. The organization works with likeminded partners across the country and throughout the state of Massachusetts to rescue unwanted animals experiencing neglect, abuse, homelessness or at risk of euthanasia. The rescue also strives to make a difference for many unwanted dogs from different unfortunate situations. It does this by providing nurturing foster homes, promoting the importance of responsible dog ownership and, most importantly, spaying and neutering every dog that comes through the rescue as it aims to cut back on the overpopulation crisis occurring in many shelters and rescues across the nation.
