Here's what the humans have to say about me:
GABBY: Great with kids and loves to play ball all day long! If you watch her video, you will see just how easy-going and sweet Gabby is. What is so great about her is that although she is kind of tennis-ball junkie, she is not overly obsessive or grabby with them like some dogs can get!
She is an all-time favorite of one of the trainer's kids who happens to play baseball and the 2 of them spend lots of time together playing all sorts of fetch and catch games and have a blast.
She walks calmly and relaxed on the leash and for her very young age of under one years old, this is fantastic and is a testament to her great overall disposition. She aced her professional evaluation and did not guard anything nor did she have any handling issues…we are amazed that no one has come to snatch her up yet because she is such a pleasure to be around and does not have a lot of the young adolescent antics that we often see.
She should be the only pet right now because outside of only 1 or 2 really mellow dogs, she has been unreceptive to any dogs coming into her personal space but Gabby does not react when she sees other dogs so it is just her preference to be with her people and her fun bouncy balls!!
A lobby favorite- she loves to entertain herself and then lie down under your feet and watch people come and go with a wagging tail. Let's please get this unassuming, gentle, and sweet young girl out the kennel soon so she does not have grow-up one minute longer in a shelter….She is spayed and UTD on her vaccinations.
