My story

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

11-7-07 Gizmo is over ten years old, apparently healthy, and very sweet. Gizmo- "Warmth is important to an old dog. At least it is to me. I can't speak for all dogs, of course, since not all dogs are alike. And most certainly, not all dogs have the same experiences. I've known of dogs who dined on fine foods and led pampered lives, sleeping on soft beds and being served hamburger and chicken and even steak. I've known of dogs who looked longingly at warm homes, who were not invited inside, who stayed in a garage or shed or under a wheelbarrow for a few days, then moved on. I've known of dogs who were treated cruelly by human hands and dogs who were treated with the gentlest touch, dogs who starved and dogs who grew fat from too many treats.
I've known all these dogs, and I've been all these dogs."---from A Dog's Life: An Autobiography of a Stray by Ann M. Martin. Yes, our little Gizmo reminds us so much of "Addie," the dog who tells the heartbreaking, yet heartwarming story of the life of the average stray dog. Please, if you have a place in your heart for an older dog who only wants a person to love and a warm place to lay her head, then consider Gizmo. She will be best as an only dog, but oh, what wonderful friendship she will offer some lucky person.

Please save lives by adopting from shelters and rescues and by spaying and neutering your own pets!
