History: We recently welcomed a group of animals who needed help from various unfortunate situations in rural areas down south. Whether overcrowded shelters or unclaimed impounds, they have a second chance at finding their forever homes and hope to meet you soon!
A Note from the Foster: My name is Gilbert, and I’m adorable. There, I said it. If you need evidence, check out my long, velvety ears, or the little brindle patches on my muzzle and legs. Also, I have great eyebrows, but don’t worry, they’re super low maintenance. My foster mom says I look like I have a little bit of hound in my DNA, but I’m not super noisy, and I like to stick close to my people.
I’m looking for my forever home where I can snuggle and play to my heart’s content. I like toys, and I even like being held, but my foster family said someday I might be too big for that. It’s okay; I’ll always fit in your lap, at least!…sort of…I hope. 😬
I’m VERY respectful of the cat who lives at my house, and I’m nice to other dogs and puppies. I’m pretty good at being quiet and clean in my crate also, which seems to make my people very happy, so I’ll probably keep doing that.
Would you like to take me home? I’ll teach you how to give me treats when I do cool stuff, and I will take you for lots of walks!! Oh, and I’ll look at you with these cute puppy-dog eyes forever and ever and ever.
XO,
Gilbert
Adoption Fee: $760 + tax
Adoption Status: Is this dog available? Submitting an application is the best first step to learning if a dog is still available. There is a chance this dog could have a pending adoption when your application is submitted, however our team will offer approved applicants to be put on a waiting list for that dog. Additionally, we can make recommendations on other dogs that may be a match. Pending adoptions do not mean the adoption is finalized. Why did we implement this change? We implemented this update because, unfortunately, dogs were pending for applicants for several weeks and then the applicant would change their mind. This happens more often with puppies, as applications are submitted impulsivly more often for them. Our process is great because it takes a little time, so impulsive decisions fade. However it was unfortunate for the dogs, and the foster homes, as then the process needed to be re-started. By securing a wait-list we are able to move forward more quickly if a pending adoption falls through. This is a new process for us, so your feedback along the way is helpful! Thank you for supporting rescue and adoption!
